Why Attach Horn Style to the Face?

[Dererk]

Why? Sent some stuff like facile hair locked on face choice?

It has been this way for a long time now.

It reminds me of DA:I Qunari having horn type locked to hair style.

It just must must be easier, for some reason. Not that I don't agree it wouldn't be nice to make it seperate.

In general the character customization isn't focusing on the selling features of the race such as horn style, horn and scale color and face type. I really want to understand better why we are limited in these options.

I don't consider this the same as the other races having locked features to select faces. Those features are always small and while it is the same type of issue, I wouldn't compare them at all because the horns are a huge part of what makes the race. Literally they are huge pieces of geometry as opposed to a color difference or a small tattoo on a face or something similar that the other races had locked. It's the same but it's not even comparable with how drastically it changes the character.
I mean the horns show through every helmet too

It seems that each race can only have so many of customization points, and for some reason, when deciding what these would be, SE decided that the horns could just be lumped in with face type.

Personally, I do not think this was a good decision. I can't speak for anyone else, but I'd have preferred "horn type" and "horn size" as customization points instead of "limbic ring" and "limbic ring color" (though I do like these), since we obviously can't have it all when it comes to customization options.

I'd also like to toss in that the horns need a scale (as in size) slider. Especially for the males. Current sizes need to be the maximum, with a much smaller variant at the end of the slider. Seriously, These giant horns block their faces from any angle accept from dead on.

I really wanted a horn customization with asymmetric sized horns so I could call him Little Horn.

[Mardel]

They had to attach the horns to the face, due to how the gear models work in this game. Otherwise there will be an issue with big holes in Au'Ri hats and it would look very bad, and take more development time. This doesn't even include the potential issues with hair. I'm almost certain each hair had to be altered per Au'ri horn type. This means they already effectively put 4 times the effort than what the other races had to deal with.

Many games already do this: Tera, Blade N Soul, and other random korean mmos.

I just want to move the horns around to the face of my choosing. There's horns I love on a face I hate and a face I love with horns that are meh. And if I can't make a character that I love in every way I won't use it. That sucks because I do like the new race but if there's something I can't stand about it I'll just stick to my miqote ._.
