Female Hrothgar as a playable race. Show your support!

I think this is basically what they'll be but flat feet and a baby tail.

Love the feet type could use some tweak on the face to make it slightly more animal like but overall i would love this model.

I wouldn't expect flat feet too or a '' baby tail '' either, I don't think that Miqo'te have a tail length difference?
But yeah I think this as a framework is almost identical to Hrothgar ( EMPHASIS ON ALMOST ).
It kinda looks like Hrothgar but with a '' clean face '', with markings and facial features removed basically.

My hope that I also understand has no chance especially with the state of those hrothgar hair because they'd have to make a new skeleton for, has always been that female hrothgar were tall and wide, there's already tall and skinny/regular for women but men have that and also tall and wide in roe/mhroth

It's going to be relative, I am expecting them to be tall and wide relative to other female races just like how Highlander is tall and wide relative to Midlander.
And Roegadyns too who have smaller hips and wider shoulders compared to the rest.
I am not expecting them to be so compared to male Hrothgar it almost just begs the question what the point even is then.

Generally speaking you also want to be able to see what someone is with a quick glance that's usually how design works in games.
Things are meant to be easily registered in your eyes and have clear silhouettes.

I see people compare Hrothgar to Charr in Guild Wars 2 sometimes, but Charr are more beastial so you can stray away even further from human anatomy.
Hrothgar are still essentially hairy bodybuilders they're still adherent to human anatomy.

Buddy. No one is demanding for them to be or not to be feminine. I would be the first one to be disappointed if they were "men with boobs". Cause there is nothing wrong or weak about a female build.
Hrothgar are not hairy bodybuilders, if anything they fit more in the "Bara" category. And what do you mean gender dimorphism is not forced? When creating a beast race, developers would experiment a lot with their look, making them big, deformed, grotesque (in some cases). All the while their female counterpart has to fall into some sort of norms for conventional attractiveness.
What do you mean the picture that I showed looks nothing like Hrothgar but a picture of the Panthera is identical to Hrothgar? They literally have human faces with the top of their lips being pushed upwards to give the impression of a cat mouth, while Hrothgar has lion faces, with an elongated snout?
The picture that I showed depicts a female Ronso from FFX, the race that was the inspiration for Hrothgar.
No one is arguing against female curves, as a woman, I WANT them to have curves and to show that being feminine is not equal to being weak. I imagine the female Hrothgar having more of an Amazonian build (think Wonder Woman) with more feline faces (and maybe shorter snouts).
And yes people will be disappointed, I know this. You can't please everyone. But as a 3D artist, when I create a model like Hrothgar, I tend to look into the demographic that I want to please. Hrothgar is a niche, that would encompass the "Furries". In this case, I would look at furry artists and their artworks to see some sort of common trends, pinpoint what I find interesting and use it as a wireframe for my work. And in my experience, the majority of furries tend to like more animal faces, so that might be the route they will be going for. At the end of the day, I don't work for SE so I can only guess what they might do.
And the comment that more people would enjoy it if it was "X" way is honestly a dumb argument. If they want a cat race with a humanoid face, they already have Miquo'te. If you want to play a pretty girl race you have: Miquo'te, Au'ra, Elezen, Hyur and Viera. If you want to play as a big buff woman then you have Roegadin and Highlander. If you want to play a furry race you have nothing. The addition of this race is to give more options and to try and accommodate different types of players: the players that only play human races, the ones who want humans with just a bit of spice (like cat ears and horns) and people who like to play as beast races.
At the end of the day, I would like different options rather than the same option with different sprinkles. But hey, that's just me.

Hey guys, femhrothlover666 here with some more hopium to fuel your femhroth desires.
You know how Yoship is a fan of WoW? I did some research on their beast races and found that both the worgen and tauren males have massive hunched backs while their female counterparts have a more straight posture.

Not even the dudes like the haunch. I don't know why the go-to for male beastfolk is to break their spines.

They fear the age old adage "its just a roe with a mask".

Yeah this so much. WOW devs even gave the option to have straight backs on orcs and trolls (zandalari trolls) and they both look way better without it. Love the zandalari trolls for that sole reason.

I hope they appear before Patch 7.0, but we’ll see.

It’s weird that Square Enix didn’t just do both male and female Viera for Shadowbringers, and then male and female Hrothgar for Endwalker, or vice versa; besides both races still lacking the full customization that other races have, we’re currently in an unbalanced and unfair situation where people who only want to play as a female character have objectively less options available to them. It was silly to have gender-locked races in the first place.

What do you mean ? Yoshi-P already showed us how they will look like in the previous live letter (first Hrotgar's new hairstyle pic) so i guess they are about to be added to the game :3
