[Critical] Male Viera height slider; tall option. Show your support.

That's a lot of absolutes on something that's in development, not on live servers. Male Viera and female hrothgar were decisions that were "set in stone" as well because they didn't have the resources/funds to handle the amount of gear adding male Viera (and female hrothgar) would require. But here we are.

I say that because a lot of good comparisons were made... The one in this twitter thread https://twitter.com/devalentione/sta...71930834743300 really shows their height in a fair way...
Their comparison was basically perfect, without much room for interpretation. After seeing that thread it really removed any doubt I had about their height.

around same height would be perfect imo honestly. the race completed doesn‘t look weird as if they were too tall (like the visualization of Amnmaat) or miqo small (which yoshi-p wanted not to be too similar to)

That is my point. It wouldn't give them Elezen proportions or any of the oversized races' proportions. But those proportions are the ones that make sense on a bigger-than-human race in the first place.

And I do actually have a female Roegadyn but she's a short one. On the rare occasions I've come across taller ones, they make her look short even though she's tall next to anyone else.

And as I wrote some time back, scaling an already tall race (with a head proportioned for being a tall race) is going to have less impact on the absolute size of the head compared to other races' heads. Which I suspect, without having visually tested it, is why they get away with having a larger height range in the first place.

And the other thing is, simply, they're Roegadyn. The race whose whole visual concept is being bulky oversized giants next to the others.

You're stating a lot of "maybes" and "suspects;" I only deal in absolutes. Maybes can be made up by anyone. I'll just use your line of thinking and suspect the game engine scales any head and body from tall to short or short to tall very well.

Those comparisons can't be called perfect, they've all been all over the place. Here's one I found on reddit


We only have comparisons, not a benchmark.
