Devs, Elezen women only have two faces. + Request to raise quality of 2.0 faces.

[Raiya]

Can we also speak about another elephant in the room, which is that elezen female has 4 slots with exactly the same hairstyle that has only different colour of the fasteners?



It is the laziest thing a designer could came up with, literally. xD
They could have give us 1 hairstyle and fasteners colour being modified with "highlights" colour choice, that would make more sense than that.
Can we have 3 more unique hairstyles for elezen female plsss

It's prolly only like that as that styles one of the original 1.0 holdovers and was designed that way.

I can understand the request for more face variety (though I think the Viera need it too!) but not the "raise the quality" thing. What's wrong with them as they are? I think all the characters look great. It's one of the first things I found appealing about the game.

This gets brought up every time the faces do, but it is NOT a matter of the designers being lazy with female Elezen specifically. Most of the original race/gender combos similarly have a set of identical hairstyles with different-coloured decorations or slight variations in the style.

People hardly play female elezen. They're about as rare as femroe.

There are dozens of us! Dozens!

Also, besides skin colour options, what are actually the difference between Dusk and Wood Elezen?
Viera atleast have eyebrow, pupil size, eye colour as well as skin colour differences

[Raikai]

TBH it would be fine to have this amount of faces if the other options had actually any significant impact.

The primary difference is a different customisation element: Wildwoods get the extra earrings that sit halfway along their ears. Duskwights have the big swirling racial tattoos.

On the original discussion of "female Elezen only having two faces with different makeup"... I'm playing around in the character creator right now. The top two faces* are the same model with/without makeup - the eyes, nose and outline of the face don't change at all when switching between them.

However, the bottom two* are similar, but not the same. Different eye and nose shapes, and even the shape of their ears changes slightly when shifting between the two (while the top two stay exactly the same). It's possibly they've just got the same face options set to different numbers for an illusion of difference, but if so, then why not do that for face 1/2 as well?


* referencing them by their positions in the character creator. The two pairs seem to be reversed in the screenshots at the top of the page.

I am bumping this in hopes this request reaches the eyes and ears of the development team. Thank you to everyone who has shown support to this thread and those who engaged in the conversation whether you agree or disagree.
