Viera and Hrothgar Megathread

[Vahlnir]

They're allowing hrothgar to change hairstyles in 6.1, correct?

They said they were looking into addressing that, but that's the last thing I remember hearing about it.

No, we're definitely getting more hairs in 6.1. I just hope they look into the fantasia issue...or Im raising hell if its not addressed....

The fantasia issue is what I was assuming the person I was responding to was talking about. lol But yeah, they SAID Hrothgar would get new hairstyles around then, but I'm still keeping my expectations low. I want to play Hrothgar, but not with how little they have to offer.

Aahh forgive me. That was my misunderstanding. Terrible sorry

I hope by "new hairstyles" they mean actually new hairstyles [my pipe dream is someday they add that rejected 'Sokka' hair] but to have the current ones unlocked to the other faces is still quite the step forward, specially if the fantasia fiasco is being revised.

Me too. I hope it will be Hrothgar-only hairstyles since so many hairstyles that are available for the other races will clash with the Hrothgar's head I think. A lot of them already don't look good on males, especially Roegadyn and Highlanders

I think it's best for everyone to keep their expectations in check on this one. Hrothgar's hair nonsense is even tied to their face features options, they literally made Middies pay $10 for a single new face to have stubble as default.
I legit have no clue how they're gonna address this, and the only solutions I can stitch together in my mind would be hilariously on brand for their handling of these races. (As in "Make a brand new Hrothgar head that's shaped in a way that allows it to use shared hairstyles in its fur pattern tab". I'm interested in seeing what they do, cause that seems like something they would do at this point)
