Tattoos, Butts, and Half Breeds...

[Nadia_Nightstar]

First off I would like to say that it would be amazing if you guys implemented a few things. I have been playing and have been a subscriber since ARR Launch and have NEVER canceled my subscription since I played this game.

1.) Tattoos: It would be amazing if we had some body tattoos and stuff like that. I have ALWAYS WANTED a Scion/Sharlayan Tattoo for RP purposes.

2.) Butts: You do have a breast slider during character creation but why not a butt slider too? I also noticed that we have been given flat booties since 1.0 and apparently a number of people have too.

3.) Half Breeds: Since Hilda was introduced I have wanted to make a Half Hyur Half Elezen character. I think it would be pretty amazing to introduce half races since we have seen our first one in Heavensward.

Yes! To all of these! Especially half breeds!

yoshida already stated he will look into extra customization of the characters in the last interview. He didn't mention any thing concerning had breeds and I am sure he will not put the effort into them.

I personally do not like half breeds.
It is just something I feel that ruins the rest of the pureblood races in the game. I also doubt that they would go through the effort judging by the simple character creation we have now.

I think in this latest live letter (maybe it was the Korean one, not sure), he mentioned that it would be easier to add things like tattoos and such as an item rather than to the character creation screen.

Can't see Half-Breeds being added myself. They're rare lorewise. Granted we're the Warrior of Light and all, but still.

Then there are some cases where its a bit of a, 'Does it really change anything?' Like a female Miqo'te-Hyur would still look like a female Miqo'te more or less. I suppose you could slap ears and a tail on male Hyur and it would actually look different though, but SE doesn't seem to go out of their way to give male characters anything special as far as appearance options go.

It'd be nice to see halfbreeds of Elezen and Hyur since they share the same progenitor. All the other races as far as I know can't intermingle with others, as well... they don't have that common ancestor.

Tattoos and a rear that isn't as flat as an ironing board sounds great!

I was thinking the same thing after the post. Some races share a genetic resumblence, but the majority are extreamly different. Some are genetically small (lalafel) and some are genetically muscular and tall (roegayden). These are totally different subkingdoms. Like primates and homos.

This was challenge with Au Ra in Heavensward, due to their speculation of being Hyur and Dragon, but was disproven at the end of the Alexander Arc.

From the title, this thread was not what I expected. It certainly did not deliver.

"They are aware of requests for options to add things such as tattoos and body hair for your character, and that if they were to implement them, it would be more realistic system-wise to make them equippable items, rather than options at Character Creation."

Butt sliders they mentioned during the latest fanfest. He said that if they did so the textures of clothing/armours would get streched out and look ugly, and that no one would want that. So my guess is that the butt slider won't happen.

Half Breeds I haven't heard they say anything about yet.

This is the first I've heard of this, and I'm usually pretty up-to-snuff on my game lore. Where is it ever stated that Elezen and Hyur have the same progenitor? As far as I was aware, Elezen and Hyur are no more closely related than Lalafell and Au Ra.

Anyway, I doubt they'll casually add half-breed options. The devs already complain about character data limits (their excuse for why we don't have more than four faces, Au Ra horns tied to hairstyles, and so on). Giving players options for half-breeding like pointy ears, cat eyes, horns, whatever would probably blow the lid off of these limits. Yoshi P mentioned that they might be willing to look into a butt-slider, though, so there's hope!
