    Lalafell First Person Camera STILL too High

    As per the title, for some inexplicable reason, whenever we Lalafell go into first person camera mode, we find the first person camera is a foot or more above our character's head.

    This isn't the case for any of the other races nor was it the case before v2.0, and it's absolutely infuriating, especially when trying to get an impression of say, another Lalafell facing you. That and looking clean over the top of my fellow Lalafell's head when Forra is even shorter than they are is just plain uncomfortable.

    So! Could someone in an official capacity please respond to this issue? I've been trying to raise it since early testing to no avail and I would really appreciate either a promise to fix it or an explanation why us little-people-players are getting shafted on being able to see the world just as our characters see it, when all the other races (down to the shortest Miqo'te) didn't have that nice little feature taken away from them in the rebuild.

    I've checked all the possible camera options, clearly height-related and otherwise, and none make a jot of difference.

    I hate to repost this issue, but being as it went almost completely un-viewed in what I felt was the 'proper' subforum for it (User Interface - but even that was a guess), and I've not seen the issue raised or addressed elsewhere in all the time since..

    Huh. I haven't noticed this, but then again I think that I have a little taller lalafell than the average. Anyways, for example when running in longer grass I can't see anything with 1st person mode.
    I think I gotta check today if my characters height and the 1st person view match though.

    The only skirts short enough to do that are those daft ones you needn't be a Lalafell to see under, ala the newbie kit. 'Sides, you can achieve that effect with camera wrangling. True Lala-perspective on the other hand though? Fat chance. Closest thing you get is first person mode as a sitting female Miqo'te.

    +1 to this. I want true first-person view, not the view of the invisible cat that sits on my head at all times.

    I wouldn't mind it being changed. It's not all that big of a deal though.

    btw I like your sig Eekiki

    I wonder if my Maxed out FemRoe height allows for higher FP perspective. I haven't tried it yet.

    I have to thank Square-Enix for the amazing job they have done recreating Final Fantasy XIV from Scratch. Especially the inclusion of Missing Genders which we petitioned for in good faith. This was proof to us players that the Developers are truly Sympathetic to our requests and that being honest and vocal can pay off with the amazing characters we have who are Female Roegadyn, Male Miqote, and Female Highlanders. Thank You SE, Thank You Community Team, Thank You Yoshi-P.

    I support this! It's really annoying that the lalafell are the only race that have this issue. T__T It's REALLY annoying when trying to look at another lalafell, since you have to be looking down at them.
