The default races who never have to wonder if they'll ever get a new hairstyle or be able to wear a particular hat? Your posts are chock full of absolute seething anger toward "pretty princess Viera" and "YoshiP's golden children", but how in Hydaelyn's name are Viera any of that? They're only beat by Hrothgar in terms of lacking clothing and customization features!
Viera and hrothgar dropt into the game at the same time. I feel they should recieve the sane amount of effort. One is 8 months ahead of the other, because fans wouldnt stop screaming about it in every single shb liveletter. One recieves vastly more attention from the dev team. Its simple.
My anger is at the time and effort one recieves while the other is noticably lagging behind, and was even lagging on launch (see aforementioned buying fantasia to alter hair, a problem viera never dealt with).
One is the very clear dev favorite. The other is not despite allegedly being a race yoship personally wanted to have that stood out in a crowd of humans and slightly-different humans.
I simply want hrothgar up to par with viera. I do want hrothgar getting hats before viera. I do want a hrothgar Scion before viera. I do want all new racial gear only accessible by hrothgar (tho lets be real viera getting Frans outfit while hrothgar get...whatever, a leather corset??? instead of kimahris gear was really stupid and obvious). Thats all I want. I do not want 7.0 to drop and hrothgar still being X many patches behind their counterpart shb for no good reason. So viera getting treated so much more noticably better because of fan outcry is a sticking point. And I apologize for my tone. But I think the clear, blinding favoritism needs to change or be mildly toned down.
This is all part of why I haaaaated them announcing mviera and fhrothgar. They should have spent mviera dev time on giving the existing sexes hats and new hair. At the sane time. The opposite sexes couldve- SHOULD HAVE- waited until 7.0. when, I know this is like so totes crazy to say, they couldve been introduced together instead of there being 1 race very noticably missing its opposite sex in the character creation menu.
