That is the same kind of thing every mmo dev team says. For years WoW devs said it was next to impossible to change the size of the backpack and later admitted that was a myth. If they want the game to last there will have to be some significant upgrades and adjustments they are going to have to do anyways.

I don't care about this particular issue as much as I notice there are always a plethora of topics where players request more customization. The butt issue I understand because it was a change. People get accustomed to how their characters look and when a change is forced upon them they feel slighted. If they just add a bulge to everyone they will have the same issue. Maybe a few options rather than a slider would be enough? My biggest issue with character customization in many games is the grouping of many features, especially facial features. So I support almost any customization in hopes that it results in a full overhaul.
