    Hypothetical Scenario

    I might be the only one on this one, but I would be willing to wait until 7.0 if they came out and ask if we would be ok with us waiting for them to completely remake the models with customisation in mind. In this hypothetical scenario, we will get the data from our characters (Hrothgar) transferred into a general Midlander model, but given with the patch of 6.9 (maybe through the Moogle mail) a phial of fantasia, this will be given to everyone that has purchased Shadowbringers (cause only those have access to Hrothgar). So when 7.0 drops we will be able to turn the fantasia into our new revamped Hrothgar models.

    This is a very drastic measure that would probably not happen, but I am curious if it would come to it and they see this as a better alternative. What would be your response, would you be ok with this?

    I'd be okay with waiting for 7.0 for a fully revamped race that addresses the core issues; namely the lack of hats and earless hairstyles. Maybe even fix the right leg on our sprint animation, since it looks like it's skipping a frame (or maybe it's just me).

    I'd even be willing to switch back to Miqo'te today, if it meant we will get a better race in the future. But we all know this isn't going to happen. At most, they will throw a few scraps here and there while pampering the other races.

    I'll wait for 7.0, but it's not like I expect much at this point. They've been making it clear what their priorities are. It's not like we can suddenly change their plan for the future, so we'll still get stuff like the ARR races being revamped. That won't be changed. Making it 5 years until there's any hints of improvement on this messy situation. 5 years of waiting... amazing outlook, lemme tell ya.

    As for that hypothetical scenario... no thanks. I'd rather go full-on Miqo'te or go back to Roe than walking around with a squid face. Also, there won't be a 6.9 will there? xD

    If they would went with that, I'd leave that shitshow forever.

    The more, why fiddling code inside a live enviroment? A proper development area would keep both separated as much as possible, if not all at best.
