[DEV REQUEST] Balancing Character Customization

[Shurrikhan]

I don't really buy that excuse. Every single race is essentially human, with slight variations in overall build, skin tone, etc. There is no race that should have any greater difficulty to design for, all things considered.

Nonetheless it's genre standard that the most humanoid races usually have the most options, so unless this is some awkward form of racism against inexistant species (or player personality types that would be drawn to them), their development must be considered more efficient, either because
- They take less time to develop, or —
- Their options affect and satisfy a larger portion of the playerbase, making them a more lucrative choice to flesh out in the goal of providing satisfying customization overall than the other races.

But... all of the races are humanoid, with maybe the exception of the lalafelin baby-faces...

And don't most active players play the tailed races? ._.

Yeah, that's the point I was trying to make. Designing a miqo'te face is not any different than designing a hyur face. They're both human faces. There are zero distorting features that could possibly make the miqo'te face more difficult to design for (as opposed to say, a charr or an argonian or whathaveyou).
