New hrothgar hairstyles are really bad.

[Allegor]

I don't know if I'd go that far. Yoshida did acknowledge that hrothgar players wanted hairstyles, supposedly people say he looked annoyed too. I don't think he really wants to do custom hairs, but it sounded in the quote like he would do so... eventually, if players wanted it.

It's probably the least bad looking one, it would probably look pretty good if the ears worked.

I mean, I don't want to single out Yoshi P in the matter, but him and/or the other devs are years too late to claim "they didn't know" when hairstyles like Windcaller has been requested since its addition to be usable for Hrothgars (and is likely one of the most popular mods), and the Bozja npc made it seem like the "new" hairstyles to come would just be switched versions of the 8 they already had, or at least 1 of them for each head. We can now switch between the hairstyles that share the same face so really, that would've sufficed.

Let's be honest, even if they hadn't chop off Hroth ears to fit, out of ALL the default and acquirable(?) hairstyles, did they genuinely believe people wanted pretty boy/emo/obviously female styles? for the most "macho" race next to Roegadyn? of course not, because those hairstyles weren't even selected for Hrothgars, they literally just copy-pasted the ones Viera got, because even when their actual male counterparts now exist, Viera and Hrothgar are still seemingly considered a single race - or rather, Hrothgar are now Viera's third wheel.
