If this game truly listens to it's comunity PLEASE make Viera able to wear head gear!

[QUOTE=reivaxe;5395713]
Would legit make them just tall super model middies and that's why the devs will never do it, not sure if that's even a stance to take at this point...


Their is already a item that remove viera ears so who care ? Viera player know this is a limited race this is why we need this

The only solution for viera to wear helmet is to disable the ears and for other hat like blm hat stuff like that they need to redesign them and i'm sure at 100% they are working on it because it is not possible that for 1 years they did nothing for them knowing that a lot of people play this race , they are not the type of devs who ignore their community they listen a lot sometime a bit too much

Devs care?

They the ones making the game so ... Shrugs.

Like I said, they don't take tails away unless there's a legit reason (AKA, the top has a tail that your character could stuff their tail inside of like thiiiiiis ). They hide the ears in that 1 gear you're referring to cause that gear is designed to replace/ hide big ears to give the appearance of a werewolf. That OR if it's a giant mascot head.

I think flopped ears could potentially be a work around that's less resource heavy than remodelling stuff.

Heck pretty sure a lot of gear would look okay with the ears sticking out with out any remodelling or texturing.

I mean, they don't give as much care on rails, I noticed yesterday on the Crystarium healer top that my character's tail cuts right through their belt and looks really uncomfortable and kinda make it looks like the belt could just snap off.

The same care also isn't given to hair styles, many of which clips with certain types of armour.

But most of the time we are like "eh, good enough, it looks cool".

Yes the devs of this game are amazing and if you disagree with that you didn't play enough game.

"Like I said, they don't take tails away unless there's a legit reason (AKA, the top has a tail that your character could stuff their tail inside of like thiiiiiis ).

Compare the size of the werewolf head to viera ears , they are not supposed to hide them they designed to do so . So they can do the same for helmet.

I suppose they could just disappear the ears when the hat is shown. Otherwise, they'd have to redesign every head item to work with the ears.

Always great seeing people be proven wrong and do mental gymnastics to whine more. And then cherrypick 1 instance of something working in their favor.

Just. Wait.

If you want Koala Joey in his mom's basement to make you pretty mods, just use those then? If you are so desperate to have what you want, while also disregarding Hrothgar entirely, go play with your IMVU simulator add ons. Hats will come in time to the game, just not now. And likely not any time soon. If you want to argue in favor of what modders can do, you have options then. If not? Then re-read all the posts explaining development time and accept you wont be getting everything handed to you next week.

And if they do add something more for you by next week, great!

Why are you talking about mods ? nobody asked for hats to be available next week for viera? Why are you coming here with your BS O.O ?

Always great to see people proven wrong, you have some problems boi. I never disregarder Hrothgars, and this post is not about them and I'm sure people who play the race also complained so please stop making unnecessary drama. Each one of you who can't read properly, I am saying this the last time, I never demanded a change overnight or in the next week or the next month, I only made this post to make the devs aware and share my toughts with other players who play Viera and share the same complaints as me.
Stop taking things to another level, you're not even playing the race.

"If you are so desperate to have what you want, while also disregarding Hrothgar entirely, go play with your IMVU simulator add ons."
And slry, that's all you can? This is the most immature reply on this post tbh, and I don't even have to explain why. I will play that imvu simulator when you gave me the money I spend on aesthetics.

i mean they did state that head models are built from scratch essentially outside the base models that the other races used. At least that what they stated last year explaining why there will be a lack a of head gear and not a matter of simply removing the ears. That means making completely brand new models from scratch unfortunately and from what I understand for the past few live letters they have been focused on other things such content and such.

Do Viera really make up less than 1% of the player base? Where did you see that statistic?

https://ffxivcensus.com

This is the reference I used. It shows 4.8 million characters in the game with the number of viera being 149,000

Unless this information is out of date, that would make the number of people playing that race as less than 1% of the total population. But even if that number has increased, it's still a comparatively small number of players to the population as a whole, and given the two major issues of the developers having to work with increased obstacles due to COVID and being months behind, the priority needs to be on the things that keep the game making money, namely finishing off the Shadowbringers patches and the next major expansion as opposed to increasing the number of hats one race can wear.

That's not to say I don't think the race should be able to wear hats. I admit the state it launched in was pretty disappointing, but also at this point you know what you're getting into with that race. Also all the work that has been accomplished has been done by people working on it in their own time, meaning without getting paid. So to demand even more comes across as incredibly selfish, and ungrateful for what work was already done by those people without pay to give at least some options. Remember originally Viera and Hrothgar weren't even able to wear glasses, for example. All that was done by people on their own because they just wanted to make the game a little nicer.
