Yeah, if it's seriously due to the core system and not just the ps3, it's require a lot of reworking. So even when the DO drop support for it, for some reason I kinda doubt SE is willing to do that >>;
Back from the depths, thread. Your time has not come yet.
I wonder if they're going to make all the significant story Au Ra characters have colored horns? Is that some kind of rare/noble thing (I don't think I've read it explained anywhere)? I wonder why we don't have that option. The ability to add colors to your horns (optional like high lights) would offer some character definition. Not as much as separating the horns and faces, but at least everyone won't look like they came from the same... nest.
Last I'd checked they're ditching console support altogether for it.
You honestly can't expect them to forever say "hey yeah, go boot up this 10 year old hardware and play an mmorpg that's being held back by it".
When you can't advance your game because you insist on supporting decades old hardware... Yeah.
Thanks Selli! Going Hyur now, huh?
It's probably nothing specific within the lore and just another one of those "core system" issues. Like.. Maybe Yugiri is noble blood, but I think it'd be hard to explain some random Xaela girl also having tinted horns.. Hopefully they make it available along with other additions to the Au Ra, because I'd really love a purplish tint to an Au Ra's scales, especially considering I wanna name them after the indigo snake.
Trying it out. It's only been a couple of days and I'm still pretty on the fence about it. I do miss that fuzzy tail. My forum picture hasn't updated me so I still see my Miqo'te, lol.
[EDIT] Oh now I'm a Hyur. .-.
I had no idea where I was going with my post, I just wanted to bump it and started rambling, lol. D:It's probably nothing specific within the lore and just another one of those "core system" issues.

They aren't advancing the game regardless. This year it gets its last content update that will permanently finish the story. Then they're considering dropping PS2 support sometime next year (a year after content updates have ended). It's just an initial stage of shutting the game down once it's over.Last I'd checked they're ditching console support altogether for it.

Well it's not a bad look!
Oh I know! It's just I reaaally doubt any Auri NPCs with colored scales have any specific reason for them besides maybe Yugiri. I'd still kill for the ability to make a Xaela Au Ra with some purple tint to their scales ;_; (Along with a half dozen other things but w/e )
You guys are worried about the horns... I'm sitting here going "why do I look like an hour glass?" and race changed back to miqote.

Eeh, at least it's a unique body type for the men.. You can't say the same for the girl's and their Miqo'te-with-vaguely-larger-hips bull crap. Plus, people can complain about more than one thing.. I know I'd freaking love the option to make an Auri girl and scale her up to 7' and I really don't get why I can't, so personally it's one thing I hope is added. The horns are still an issue though, which apparently at the "Duty Commenced" today they talked about how it's already at the maximum character memories.. I just hope they spend some good long time revising that, and soon, because cristo the Au Ra I see end up looking super samey.
Bump btw
Thank you. I'm still not quite sure how I feel. I love the /cposes and riding side saddle and I even like the princess run everyone hates so much. But my character feels really tall and the figure is different (some of my job glamours look kind of awkward). But I'm having fun, I'm enjoying confusing everyone on my friends list that I happen to run into. XD
Well the Au Ra from the WHM quest didn't have any colored scales and I believe she had a face that came with her horn type. I think Yugiri and... Alexander Au Ra lady (I'm so good at names) have the colored scales because they're important figures in the story (Alisaie, for example, was important in the Coil quests and also in the earlier main scenarios before she and her brother became more independent. Granted, she was basically the same model as Alphie, but the two stood out from other Elezen and regular NPCs).Oh I know! It's just I reaaally doubt any Auri NPCs with colored scales have any specific reason for them besides maybe Yugiri. I'd still kill for the ability to make a Xaela Au Ra with some purple tint to their scales ;_; (Along with a half dozen other things but w/e )
It might be some kind of nobility thing, it might just be to make them stand out more to help back up their importance, idk. If it is something they have to be like "hey, this person is an important character" it would make sense for us to have it as well. I mean, the WoL is the main character of this story and there is only one* (*ignoring the other xx million people who own an account).
