New hrothgar hairstyles are really bad.

[Denji]

The reason why I voiced my concern about the lack of feedback is because you're not actually telling the moderator what you want out of this. Everyone's worked so hard to grab SE's attention but instead of voicing what is it they would like, everyone's continuing the whole "These hairstyles are terrible, SE is a bad company because of x, y and z, 6.1 is ruined" only a handful of people have openly said that they would like more race specific hairstyles, or for SE to just rework the Hrothgar model ... I don't understand what your aim is by continuously calling SE out for their contradicting statements. Bare in mind, I've been more than vocal on the unfairness of the situation, I just don't want to see everyone waste their opportunity because they're caught up in a mob mentality and can't stop.

Everyone's worked so hard to get SE's attention, I just don't want you to waste it by not telling them what you want to happen.

We have given it. Most of us have made suggestions in this and the viera/hroth megathread.
I personally have spoken about shorter hairstyles and ones with larger braids and have agreed with others about the GW2 ones that put square's to shame.

All I see from you is whining that we're just complaining when Yoshi-P himself told us to talk about these issues on the forum.

Firstly, my comment wasn't directed at you, I don't want to have multiple conversations at once in a thread. Secondly, hardly whining - you have a habit of being hyperbolic when it comes to other people's comments, so I'm not sure what else to say to you.
For the past week I've seen nothing but callouts on SE's incapability when it comes to these races, which is fair enough but I've seen little to nothing about what you all want out of this. No need to turn on me when I was just voicing my concern.

You want a private conversation? Take it to notes/PMs. Don't get snippy at me because you shouted in a public discussion and the public shouted back.

Dude, you're the one who butted in a @ that wasn't even directed at you, and then accused me of whining? How was I snippy at you when you were the one that said a bitchy comment to me first, for no reason? lmao

I'm sorry my comment that wasn't even directed at you offended you(?)

Since you seem to be misunderstanding, I'll repeat: This is a public thread. If you don't want public responses then take it to PM.

No additional nitpicking of the words I chose nor swearing at me will change this fundamental fact.

Well, you do have a habit of completely missing the mark, let's be real here.
You tried to start an argument with me just last week, stop trying to look for an excuse to jump down my throat. I even said last time I'll leave the conversation because I could see you were blatantly looking for an argument, so I'll do the same now

I'll leave you to calm down.

This forum doesn't have PMs.

[Denji]

This forum doesn't have PMs.

Whoops, sorry. Still doesn't change the fact that this is a public forum.

That said, I'm not going to pretend I'm somehow above being frustrated; especially when it concerns misinformation about the hairstyles from both developers and other players.

I have been thinking a bit about the Hrothgar ears situation. To try and find a possible solution to the problem.
Every Hrothgar head has a different type of ears for their respective face, as well as the placement of the ears is different depending on the head. This means that when the devs want to add new hair they would need to make 4 variants of it for every new hair. Which is a lot of work. A thing they could do is to separate the ears from the head mesh and create a set of general ears that would fit with all faces and combine those to the head mesh (keeping them at a small distance like the Miquo'te ears).
But what of the uniqueness of the head ears? You might be asking.
Well, that is where the ear tufts from the facial features come into play. They could create these ear tufts to make them look more unique while keeping the base similar to help with the workload. For a good example of this look no further than Viera's ears, they look different but the first few rows of faces from the head up are the same and going up the mesh towards the tip of the ear they take a distinct look (a good example is the "Floppy" ears that perk up then from the middle of the mesh are extruded downwards).
It could be a good solution that would require only head fitting for the hair rather than head + ears fitting.
