Why were Keeper of Moon Miqo'te's fang size Reduced?

[Soge01]

Are we now getting rid of what little definable features each of every race's two clans have in order to make them "cuter" or more "desirable" or something? Please, give me back my fangs as I actually enjoyed looking at them and these tiny ones you replaced them with just don't look right with my Miqote.

I hate it when they change features like this. I'm still mourning my midnight black skin tone they took away

[Ilenya]

Wait...Ignoring the fact I haven't actually checked fang length, how does removing the fangs in any way make them "cuter" or "more desirable" as you put it? I know those are the words you chose for a reason, but where did this idea even come from?

@Aivi_lo
There was a midnight skin tone feature? 8O I would have LOVED to make my alt that back in the day of 2.0 when she was a Miqo'te...

@Ilenya
I used those words based on what I've personally seen the developers do with the current races we have in the game, the little Viera teaser concept art they showed us a few years back and what became of the Auri once they were finally released. Most of the races, including the Viera concept art, either had a cutesy or overall "physically attractive" design about them. I thought with the removal of the longer fangs for Keeper of the Moon Miqo'te, they could be trying to not only further blur the line between what makes each of the six races two clans feel special between eachother, but also trying to make them seem more attractive in some way by getting rid of what they deem as undesirable for a particular race's clan to have for whatever convoluted reason they have.

Its only smaller on some faces, which leads me to believe it was a bug. Might want to report it in the bug forums.

[Soge01]

Hm, I'll do that, thank you. ^^ But if it isn't, is there a way to request having the fangs put back on particular faces the way they were? I'd rather have the longer fang to shorter fang feature be an added aesthetic option than just something forcibly thrust on me.

During 1.0

After checking all four facial options I don't see any difference in Fang length. If it is there it's very subtle.

After further observation it is indeed correct seems 2 faces will have at least for the female, small fangs and the other two have longer fangs. Ad for the male I suppose it's the same but the difference was at least for me subtle somewhat.

[Coratanni]

There's no difference. If there is, it's a bug.

I just looked with /converse thinking it might be a gender thing, and they are significantly smaller on my avatar, too. XD They might look longer in cutscene and/or at certain angles, though... I once remember thinking that they looked almost TOO long (which I didn't mind) but now they're barely visible. They're like... human teeth. XD
