VIERA AND HROTHGAR COMPLAINT MEGATHREAD

[LisSquid]

I get that you play Female Viera, and you (probably) don't find the inclusion of Male Viera relevant to your interests, but they are still the same race. I think it's time for Hrothgar to get something too.

Male Viera were made to be less limited than F Viera, but they are held back because they never got to fixing Female Viera. This is going to be what happens to Hrothgar with their F inclusions, bet.

Call me pessimistic, I don't think it's fair to either current players or prospective Hrothgar to do another 2 year wait on updates to their race. Least of all while everyone else gets 4-6 hairstyles in an expansion cycle. Fix M Hrothgar and F Viera, and then we can properly give F Hrothgar a warm welcome.

I think this is a misunderstanding of what YP said.

Lets run this back, before 6.0 what limits did Viera have? Can't wear hat stuff and could only have racial hair. What's changed? They got shared hair (even if it's only currently 6 styles).

What I think YP was saying was more along the lines of "We figured out how to make shared hair work on Viera females (W/E tech problems were stopping that, IDK) and we built Male Viera with that knowledge!". That doesn't mean everything fits Viera like a glove or that they get all the styles clearly, just that they can now make shared hair work on them.

So basically, what I think he was saying was that MV wouldn't have to wait 2 years for the devs to figure out how to make shared hair work on them like the Females had to (Yes, I'm sure there were people who were expecting MV to have only racial hair on release just like the females regardless of what hair they added to the females in 6.0). It's not a problem they had to "fix" on MV.

As it stands, both Male and Female Viera can have shared hair work on them. 1 had to have some hidden BS worked on to make it happen over the past 2 years, the other was just made with it inbuilt. MV are no less "limited" than FM as both have the same limitations (if they can make 6 shared hairs work on FM then there's no reason to think they can't make some more shared hair work really. Seems more like a cost of time and energy than a case of "Only THESE 6 could work!").
