Would be nice to finally get some Curly/Afro hairstyles included into the game

I am sure it could be done but more so that it may not just be within their experience.

That's actually a fair point. Especially considering they're a Japanese company. And Gw2 is American.

I really wish people would stop talking about Dreadlocks as if they're a '' black thing ''.
Dreadlocks were common in Europe since way before they became associated with black people, particularly in Central and Northren Europe.
And the oldest depictions of them are from Egypt and Greece.

Just as a side note because these associations leads to some really dumb shit where people get mad at '' white people '' ( a dumb overly-generalized term to begin with ) for having certain hairstyles.
Dreads aren't '' afro hair '' and never have been.
A ton of people in Europe wore it way before they even came in contact with black people.

For the most part I agree but some of the textures in GW2 are honestly pretty bad.
It's not as noticeable on those pics but ingame it's very obvious that there's a very clear difference some of them look really rushed and weird.

It kinda goes into the texturing thing.
Honestly some of those hairstyles ingame looks like someone pooped on their heads, again it's not as noticeable in these screenshots but ingame it's really noticeable.
They sorta look like they belong to Guild Wars instead of Guild Wars 2, they could really use an update.

I think GW2 has done a good job with adding some nice variety to their character creation.









For better or worse, I don't see SE really changing their tune much as far as character/hair design goes, but it never hurts to keep pushing the request.

I love GW2's face, skin, and hair options. Not only an amazing spectrum of representation, but also many of the options are really sexy. IMO the best range and quality of character design options (and especially human models) in any MMO on the market.

Still waiting for more longer hair style options. I don't care if they clip. I'll work around it like I do the current styles.

I'm team-Asura, so I don't have the option to use them myself, but from what I've seen I would agree that some of the styles could use some love. :X I guess there is room for discussion if it's better to have something be attempted in a not-so-perfect way, or if it's better to just not have it for risk of insulting people.

I think SE has a set style they're going for, and they are a Japanese gaming company, so I can sort of understand the lack of more ethnic options.

You don't like Spiky Anime Protag and Mid-Length With Random Braid?

lol. We have so many styles that, imo, look way too similar to exist together. All those short, choppy things....how many more will we get D:

I remember when I went to the 2016 FanFest, someone asked if we can get curly hair in game. Yoshi’s reply was wait for PS5. Well, PS5 is technically here, so if he keeps his word, maybe soon.

I’ve played the game since ARR, it would be really nice if we could get some afro/curly hairstyles introduced into the game for players.

Please, yes.

(Though, admittedly, given all the clipping and weird-hair-physics issue this game engine has, I'm half afraid they wouldn't be able to make good curly hair...)

[Eriane_Elis]

I'm expecting limsa to be 80% disco dancing characters by the end of all this lol!

And yes, I'd love to see the fro

[Soulebreaker]

Not exactly crying, just made a comment. I have friends and family like that also so I get it. Still seems weird to me but you do you.



Thanks, English is not my first language so I still make silly mistakes.

There's nothing bad about someone mentioning their race. They were speaking about how relative it is to them to have hair that represents them. It shouldn't even bother you enough to make a post about it.

Most of those imo look like trash.

The problem with this style of hair is that games never do it justice and it looks like trash.
