Thread: [dev 2.0] request - make males manly

That said, I would not be against the addition of a few more masculine options available to the elven males in 2.0.

Even with "Manly" body types the emotes could be...questionable at times I mean what is with the new /happy emote for Elzen lol.

My character looks like he just seen a pride parade and wants to join in, quickly realises how odd he look and mans it up with a dual fist-pump.

Riiiiight. So they should do things like take the rectangular bricks that are supposed to be hands and scratch their 4 pixel heads?

Google "WoW character new models" and you'll get a ton of WoW players complaining about how ancient the animations and models are. SE should definitely head in that direction.

Because I'm so helpful.

oh please, what are you trying t osay? characters in ffxiv do nothing while standing still. but in wow when characters stand still they do movements. for example humans move their feet, changes their idle position and shrugs. dwarfes look around and deep breaths. worgen look around and sniffs. etc etcerta.
