New Races

[Tatiana]

They need to expand customization of Viera and Hrothgar before adding M/F versions of them, or new races. I like the idea of them adding new tribes to existing races, rather than entirely new races once they expand customization.

I hope they hurry up and let me change my hair on Hroth without paying for a Fantasia.

Not suggesting it would make everyone 100% happy but I do imagine people would be more okay, an average high alleviation solution, with Hroth's hair issue if the barber allowed them to just change the whole head. Weird indeed, but I think a more friendly solution if SE can't find a way to do it any other route. So you can't change out of hrothgar without a fantasia but you could change within hrothgar all the way via the barber.

Honestly everything should be changeable at the Aesthetician with fantasia being just for race changes. Starting in Shadowlands WoW is even going to let us gender swap at the in-game barber.

For FFXIV it might be necessary for gender change to be fantasia too though since in this game gear sets don't just swap over regardless of your gender.

Anyway at the very least full recustomization within race/gender should be doable at Aesthetician for everyone.

No customization within the same race/genger should need a fantacia... Even Rome had cosmetic surgeries so Erozea should have it too.

And putting history aside the Aesthetician is like...a wizard ninja barber. This should be well within his capabilities.

I mean, if WoW can push for being able to even change their gender on the barber in their next expansion, then it wouldn't be bad that SE could follow up with opening all customization options on the same race without the use of fantasia at the very least.

I still don't like them adding Hrothgar. While i understand it was the teams choice to add their own race - i would have preferred them adding Lupin with Wolf/Fox being the clans. We don't need another cat race. But i'll get over it.

Yeah, I would've had more respect if they added the race they pointed to as, to make present to us one of the points why they added hrothgar; "we were surprised at how well received lupin were." hrothgar feels like a decision made to grab elders scrolls/guild wars 2 players (specially GW2, a dying game which stopped getting new content).

That seems... super optimistic? Judging by the fact they've not added anything to the new races so far it must be a lot of work, why would they exponentially increase their workload by not only making more unique hair and faces for male Hrothgar and female Viera, fit (some?) headgear on them, but then also make entirely new faces and hair for male Viera and female Hrothgar and then fit headgear on them too? And why would they hold stuff back from the races that are already in the game for the other genders they've said they're not sure they're even doing?

I hope they do add them at some point for those that want them, but these sort of expectations are what caused the first meltdown about it on the forums.

OT: I've personally given up getting my hopes up every patch just for nothing again, and again, and again. So while I'd like to see something before 6.0, because 2+ years without any additions by that point is pretty sad, it's probably not realistic.

I know it's pretty optimistic, but that's what i want to belive, since i lost all my hopes for more hairstyles for Vieras in the remaining time of the current expansion
