New hrothgar hairstyles are really bad.

I just saw how this looked on Hrothgar. :|

We shed our muzzles and become just roegadyn!

That obviously doesn't look right at all.

But is there any gear piece that's been racially modified to fit the actual shapes of their face\specific body parts? Like, how do Lala look in this? Do they just randomly grow a miniature Hyur face?

Good question, i'm guessing they look like a miniature Hyur. But it just looks worse on Hrothgar simply because all the other races don't have snouts.

well... at least Hrothgars has the helm. We Vieras don't even have that right. *cry on the floor*

Which is so weird to me, just glue the ears on top of the helmet Square.

I know.

I'll say it here. I don't get the problem they have with these things. "Oh but we'd have to refit it to every race, that's not very productive". Uh-huh. You know you already have the bland textureless face model for Hrothgar snouts, right? Just set it to black and bump up the reflective node a little (Blender has that option literally right there, I assume 3DSMax, Maya or whatever program they use has it too). Cut out the actual sauron-looking head piece around the Hyur face and plop it in. Boom, done. Implement it as a metadata change for Hrothgars. Of course I'm probably simplifying the actual process, but it's nowhere near any more complicated than that.

I can't wait to see an image of a mod suddenly show up with that exact same process, just to make it even more poignant.

Was mostly asking because I don't remember Square ever changing stuff for other races. The real issue is that now they have a race that very much defies the stuff they make, yet they still won't budge. And to make it weirder, the problem isn't even Hrothgars squishing their faces to fit, it's that they'd look at this and think "Yep totally will fit me, a lion man, and not something that already exists in-game with a lion face on it".

there is indeed precedent for gear that changes its 3D model depending on race; look at the hempen undergarments. There is also that one weird caster robe from heavensward that wraps miqote tails.

Funny enough, that same robe deletes Hrothgar tails. Granted, it's better to not have a tail than having a giant d**** over your butt, but at this point I'm willing to bet it was an oversight rather than intentional.

The more I read through this thread, the more depressed i get....
