[Poll] Your most wanted character customization feature?

[Ametrine]

Hmm, I think the Miqo'te ears are technically part of the hairstyle at a programming level?....

I don't know if this is exactly the case as the ears have individual animations. It's just a tacked on model just like different tail types. It's just that some of the older options (all the 1.0 and 2.0 cuts) have different textures, different fuzz details, and on some male cuts, spots.

The deal I have is you can tell SE eventually started just taking on the same two sets of ears and tacking them on every hairstyle. We haven't seen a Miqo'te custom variant haircut in ages outside the odango buns in ages.


Thing is, we DO have an example of the ear model getting swapped out with the Werewolf Ears.



I guess SE's choice to avoid ear customization on Miqo'te may come down to reanimating them for a whole bunch of emotes.


Otherwise, I know the explanation behind Au Ra horns was something to do with datacap thresholds on avatars. For some reason, SE decided horns options were a less important option than like, eyes rings (??), so they locked horns to the face choice.

Speaking of Miqo'te, they have a similar but far less pronounced issue with facial striping.
