New hrothgar hairstyles are really bad.

Yikes. I'm getting itchy just from looking at it.
Thanks for the pic!

Sigh...Yeah, we need custom made Hrothgar hair styles, I have zero faith on those hair ports.

that would probably take a lot of time since the hairstyles theyve been adding have to be stretched and remodelled in some areas so they fit on their funny shaped heads

that's some impressively bad work there. never change, SE.

It's always a wonder how stuff like this can get approval.

[ameliaw]

This is gross, jesus christ. Did they spend more than 5 minutes on this?

Honestly, I'm happy to wait if they commit to that and guarantee us the same or superior quality of original Hrothgar hair styles.

I'll take 2 awesome new hairstyles in 6 months over a 1000 sad, rushed ports right now.

Problem is, time went by and they had nothing to show, made a subpar job and now we have this awkward situation.

And you know what? It's not our fault, we tried to reach out and we heard back once and then nothing?

Sorry to vent, btw

I said this before...if they cant get these Hairs to work on Hrothgar, then they need to spend more time Actually making Hair for the Hrothgar.
They mentioned before Hrothgar would get their own unique hair, where is it? Some (not 1, but SOME) Custom hair for the Hrothgar would be better then trying to make old human hair fit them

Padudu, why do you always manage to get a laugh out of me?

I try my best to please <3 <3 *blush*

Wow lol that is horrible. It looks like they put the ears on a patch of fur and then just rammed it on top. That's some next level of scallywag ass tomfoolery.

Thanks for this, was thinking about going back if they looked good, but will stay as a boring highlander for the time being.

I'm fairly happy with how viera has been turning out. It's a good thing I don't really care about the hats personally. I wish we could get some more new racial hairstyles, but having all our hairs in time, and having new hairs being made available, is good for me. It's looking more and more like hrothgar probably would need those actual racial unique hairs if they are going to look any good. Or at least SE adjusting these a lot more than they seem to do now.

To be blunt. I think MALE Hrothgar are a lost cause when it comes to hair until 7.x's graphics updates. They were simply never designed with the thought of having to share hair with others races and trying to make things work as they stand is very much "Square peg in a Circle hole". They asked for feedback on "Shared hair vs VERY few and far between unique hairs" and ended up deciding that share hair with ears is the best option.

Perhaps with the higher specs and the new shaders and such being done on player characters and their hair in 7.x it'll be easier to add in hair tuffs where the ears emerge from the hair ... but they're not gonna make human hair look great on these dudes as they currently stand, and it's clear they know it doesn't look great. This tom-foolery is all the reason I need to think that Female Hrothgar are gonna be designed in a way that won't condemn them to this fate.
