6.2 Hrothgar Update

[DiaDeem]

Company delivers quarter-finished project
Players complain about this
Company decides to make it half finished and not a quarter finished

"Why isnt everyone happy?1! They're so ungrateful".

I imagine a lot of players arent happy with being given scraps at a time for a feature that shouldve been fully working on release. It's like you have £50, the company takes £50, gives you back £25 and tells you to be happy with it. Crude analogy but that's the vibe I get from the situation.

People wanted hairstyles with ears, hairstyles now have ears. People taking the XIV devs for granted is something that just rubs me the wrong way. Many other devs would have just called it a day and go through with their original plan and never add the ears.

Also, your arbitrary "quarters" and "halves" make no sense, nor does your weird money analogy. Hroth hairstyles were not even on the cards when the race was released, and they were very clear about that. Hroth hairstyles, Male Viera and eventually Female Hroths are all things they didn't plan for and yet have been added over time.

I do not lack for empathy, and I say this as a Viera player that can't even wear hats. The difference is that if they ever introduce hats for my race, I'll be happy. Whining about them taking longer than I would have wanted doesn't contribute anything, and I'd rather be grateful for every step in the right direction than angry about it. But that's up to each person I guess.
