Gaia's Outfit on Mogstation

[Waterscape]

This really need to be changed , the pants and boots need to be separated. Make no sense at all ! so lazy square enix

Downside: the male sets suck

I love the male versions of the Edenmorn mage sets. I think the shirt looks much better with sleeves (and minus the gloves). Very dependant on your character's fashion sense though, of course.

Gaia's hair would have been perfect for players that want a long hairstyle but the Hrothgar/Viera curse strikes again.

This has nothing to do with Hrothgar/Viera. We never got long hair before those character models were released, and Viera racial hairstyles include some of the longest ones we have.

Hmm, perhaps I'm misunderstanding your meaning, but Viera/Hrothgar definitely aren't to blame for this set not including a hairstyle. Gaia's hair simply isn't made to fit player characters. The model possesses limited movement meant only for cutscenes. Hrothgar are male only (for now) anyway and never would have been wear it, and Viera have received every new hairstyle fitted for them since Endwalker came out including Lyse's and soon Alisae's. This is a "can't be ported to anybody" problem, not a "can't be ported to Viera" problem.

Outfit is a pass entirely because it's not in pieces and no hairstyle. Ryne's Outfit was in pieces. This is just lazy on their part.

Lack of being dyable also hurts it's glamour options. It's a rather tough sell if the only nice parts of the outfit are the legs and feet.

I'm convinced that they are only going to add short hair only for the rest of the MMO's life.

What's Hrothgar/Viera got to do with it?

Nah it's a factor. Longest hair still goes to 2 styles that are exclusive to Roegadyn Females.

Beyond that the only long hairstyles ingame belong to NPCs being Gaia and Ysayle.

I've yet to see any long style on Hrothgar that goes past the neck.

Waist long hair in a fantasy game seems like a impossibility.

Let's say for arguments sake it was a Viera problem, what gives you the impression they've had any qualms whatsoever about releasing and selling hairstyles we can't use?

Most likely yes, but it would still be an impossibility regardless of Viera.

Aaaand someone's already made a dyeable version mod. Two hours ago. (◍´͈ꈊ`͈◍)
Granted, they had since the patch came out 8 days ago to do it and you need another mod to make it work in game.

They prefer to avoid the clipping of ears on both races but the modding community has long since proven that any hairstyle not compatible in the game can be used on any race just fine. I firmly believe they will use the beast races limitations as an excuse to only release short styles going forward.

It's not so much a Viera problem then it is a Hrothgar problem.

But we shall see how they tackle Hrothgals in the far future.

I still find it mildly disappointing that Ryne, Gaia, Ysayle, Hilda, Omega Twins, Modest Minfilia all have styles you could most definitely use. Particularly Hilda's and that just doesn't seem to be the case. Pretty underwhelming.

Edit: @Mimilu SE may as well just add in mod support since the modding scene clearly does more work in the devs. Probably just had to change a single line of code to make it dyeable.
