    Female Hrothgar Suggestions

    I find it incredibly strange that Female Hrothgar has hairstyles tied to specific faces. As far as I am aware no other race, and correct me if I am wrong, and male Hrothgar do not have face specific hairstyles. Why are Female hrothgars the only ones like this?

    There are so many wonderful hair options for them and being locked out of a hairstyle because I wish to use any other particular face feels horribly inconvenient and blocks a lot of creative options for the race/gender when it already has so little. (For example Face 3 having access to hrothgar hairstyle 22, while face 2 does not. I very much love that hairstyle, but do not wish to use face 3 for it.)

    All that is to say I wish for a change for all the hair options specific to female Hrothgar to be an option for any face. Alongside this I also get very frustrated that hrothgars as a whole cannot change hair colors.

    Seeing as they are furry creatures maybe there is a reason they cannot change their entire fur color since it is also part of their body, but nevertheless it still frustrates me to no end that they are one of if not the only few who cannot change hair colors. As it stands Hrothgar female feels the most neglected.

    I pray that there is some way any of these things can change, more so the face specific hair change is more important to me than the others.

    (This is all from when I first started playing hrothgar, and some of these comments may be incorrect, but last I played they did not have the option to change hair colors outside of fantasia.Please correct me if I am wrong on this.)

    The hairstyle and color limitations were the reason why I just couldn't stick to Hrothgar despite really adoring the concept and the default looks they have. Every race and gender in the game have a few unique hairstyles exclusive to them (IE, Miqo'te males have several hair styles with black tips and spots on their ears that female characters can't use), so a few for Hrothgar is normal.

    But the limitations are so harsh on Hrothgar!

    Male hrotghar do have face specific hair too. Boggles my mind why instead of fixing this issues, they doubled down on it with the females

    The lack of hairstyle options at launch and all of the borked armor with massive shoulders and sleeves is why I didn't spent more than a couple of weeks as female Hrothgar despite looking forward to them when they were announced.

    Over a year later and there still hasn't been any justification for me to go back and use them again (hairstyles still limited, still a lot of comically over-sized gear), so I've just given up on the race. And no, I didn't care about the "new hats" because I barely used 99% of the head glam in this game already on my Miqo'te, so I was never going to use it on Hrothgar either.

    Male hrothgars have hairstyles tied to the face as well. It seems rather than correcting this issue, they chose to replicate all of the male issues with the females out of fairness, which is really stupid. I played female hrothgar for the past year since DT and loved her to death, but finally decided to shift back to my bunny boy for now. They still have sooooo many armor issues and I am tired of cute outfits coming out and the slaves are so massive, it looks stupid on me.

    I just hope we can get more character creation option in a future expansion. Since we know that there won't be any new playable races, it would be best to add more option in the character creation for more unique approach.

    I think there is an easy answer. The devs hate Hrothgars, and only caved on female Hrothgals after they released male Viera.

    I mean releasing the race finished the first time would of been the best, but sadly that did not happen
