Updating Existing Races

[Matrinka]

I know a lot of people wish that the horns were a separate choice from the Aura race...

As a Miqo'te, I really want more tail options. Right now, my tail is the two toned one. But what I really want is a tabby-cat stripey tail.

while they are at it , they could also make our ears wiggle a bit while running and fighting , they seem so stiff all the time

I always wanted Mi'qote to get different ear styles, such as a foward, upright option, or something akin to Scottish Folds. I like the tabby tail idea, it would be adorable.

Actually, in every new race theorizing thread I've see, there are always a set of us who would be as content, if not moreso, to see current races gain expanded options instead of an entirely new race, so who knows!

American-curl ears would be so adorable! I actually thought about ear options too, but it was in a future instalment.

Oh, like tiger stripes and leopard spots with more muscular builds? I think it's actually surprising that we're not allowed to style our tails at the aesthetician now that I think about it...

Hear, Hear!

Expanded creation options would be lovely for the next expansion. Maybe two new faces for everyone but midlanders (they have six faces already), and maybe not for Auri (but give them the ability to switch horns, as well as add two new ones).

Of course, ideally I'd like for EVERYONE to get two new faces each, and more options, and more beards, (and a butt slider, and more bulge, but not a slider, on males), I just don't want the "but we just created Au Ra!" to be an excuse from expanding the other races, or "but midlanders already have enough faces!" as an excuse from expanding the other races, or "but a butt slider would take a long time!" as an excuse from expanding the other races, (and I doubt that any discussion about increasing the bulge a bit would even be acknowledged by the devs).

Ahem, all of that rambling aside, I hadn't yet heard the suggestion for a tabby/striped tail option until now, and I think it's a cute idea, and hope you get your wish!~

They should add more faces and clans.

They should add more faces and clans.

I recall some dev post stating there was a third clan possibly out there in the world, we just haven't come across them yet.
Don't remember if this was specifically in regards to the Au Ra or for all spoken races. I checked real quick but couldn't find the post I'm remembering.

But hey, there's a possibility new clans will be an option!


As for me, I just wanna see the 1.0 butts back.

I keep hearing about this. I came with the 3.1 patch. What happened???

it's highly unlikely something like that will ever happen. or any major changes to existing character models. at this point the game they are pretty much finalize and i know SE does not want to go back and redo them.

They should. The standards for character creations nowadays are far higher than the really cheap customization FFXIV brings us. Instead of giving us 12 different voice options for each race they could've given us more body sliders. We shouldn't even ask for 1.0 butt, we should expect having a butt slider, and sliders for different body features too such as leg thickness, waist, etc... It's the bare minimum. Or atleast different body shape options ala Guild Wars 2 (let's say the one we currently have would be the standard body type, then we'd have an even skinnier body type, then a curvier sexy body type, and a chubby body type, with only 3 more models you'd satisfy a lot more people) if they're too lazy to make sliders.

I really hope that when they drop the PS3 support we'll get an improved character creation with a lot more features. I'd be really disappointed if they don't give us that, considering that a ton of free to play games have a crapton of sliders and a very complete character creation while being actually older than FFXIV and also having way better hair physics.
