New things from German interview with yoshida

But the thing is, i could understand not adjusting older gear. It’s the new gear that makes no sense to me. Why can’t they make the new gear work for them? Or hairstyles? It’s just really baffling to me it’s been an entire expansion with seemingly no improvements on that front.

Whatever is going on, it suggests that it's not just "we don't want to revisit old gear". Something stops them from being able to share hairstyles with the other races. Otherwise it shouldn't be more modification work than they already have to do for Miqo'te, so why stop short?

HOWEVER, there are some items that there's absolutely no excuse, such as the Calfskin cap (and a number of other similar items, like bandanas)... Just a hole would work. If they looked upon those smaller items, like caps, hoods and bandanas, it would open a huge variety.

I feel like the angle of the ear bases means that hats would have to be quite big to line up with them? Which might look fine over hair, but it's hard to tell. They tend to have very bulky hairstyles as far as I can think.
