Midlanders have 5 faces.

Adding a couple new details to each race in a future patch verses falling back on hairstyle would be a much more appreciated alternative even if we'd need a fantasia to toy around.

ESPECIALLY a new face for everyone, but other unique race exclusive details, too, like a new tail options or different ears. Freaking body tattoos and more jewelry.

I can't see how one or two extra layers of details on a character creation level would be more strenuous on the servers than a new race entirely.
