[U]nstylish: Lack of Effort in Viera & Hrothgar Hairstyle Releases

[MellowMink]

While I love getting to play as a Hrothgar, with the race design making me super happy and it fitting my character super well, it does make me sad that Hrothgar are consistently treated as less important than the other races in terms of customization support.

I’m not condoning mods, but can’t Square Enix at least hire the programmers who managed to get more hairstyles (without removed ears) and hats to work? I understand that their work also needs to be brought into a wider code build and carefully tested, but that effort seems more important than just giving up and making us feel more excluded.

Heck, the Miqo’te even get to have their ears show through Snow’s hat in one of the hairstyle options, so what’s the legitimately good excuse for Hrothgar not having that too?

considering how little effort it takes for people to break the TOS and modify the game to use alternative hairstyles, the fact that square's tried to claim before EW came out that they had no time to do this is absolutely absurd. they absolutely could've hired someone to do this ages ago and it'd be a job that would take a couple weeks at most.
