VIERA AND HROTHGAR COMPLAINT MEGATHREAD

[Yencat]

Yeah, once the prepatch dl goes live we’ll be able to see what/how many types were getting. Personally I’m inclined to think the dandelion will be a separate hair if only because the fluffy male hair also has a female equivalent and I feel like it’d be odd to cross wires file wise. But I guess anything goes as long as it ends up 1:1. We’ll find out soon enough!

I kinda hope I’m wrong too cause I hoarded Gyr Albania plaits so that’s the update I’m looking for lol

Would the female equivalent of that be the chunky twin ponytails, or am I looking at it wrong? I guess that could be cute.

Yeah, the plait was even further back so we'd be waiting a long time unless they sped up the pace!

Yup, this one:



Which was my character's hair waaaaaay back when she was a miqo'te in hw, so I kinda hope they do give it to buns. I think its pretty cute for being so old!

and I asked a friend to make me a list:

Gold saucer ponytail and 2B both kinda go against my theory, so I will need more hairstyles released. For science.

Why would Viera get Roegadyn racial hairs? We've got a backlog of base game, cash shop, and the various modern aesthetics, no reason to hold your breath over another race's exclusive hairs ^^;

I do agree it would be odd to pair the female braided style with the fluffy hair instead of the one it actually belongs with, particularly as the matching one seems like a good style for Viera, but it should also be noted that there is no single equivalent to the fluffy style. I was looking at this the other day and it's from the not-quite-universal section of the list where there are recurring designs shared to some races but not all of them – things like Moenbryda's hairstyle that wouldn't work on Miqo'te but is available to most of the other races, for example. So if you look at all of the races one by one you'll see that in that section of the list there isn't a consistent pairing of styles in the same order across races, so it's harder to predict what will come out of it.
