What if the Devs added another "Clan" for each Race?

There's supposedly is a 3rd Au Ra clan and they're older than the Xaela and Raen.

Finally, I mention that in addition to the Xaela and Raen clans...there are rumors of a different, much older clan. (and...this is where Yoshi-P cuts me off).

If they were to add new clans for each race then they should be different from each like Highlander vs Midlanders are, but that's too much work for them. Or maybe have different faces? I think Goesetsu belongs to an Othardian Roegadyn clan.

Otherwise, I'd rather have more customization for the races we already have

Oh, very interesting!!! A clan older that the Raen or Xaela would be interesting...

Honestly, taking a look at them, I think the Midlanders and Highlanders only APPEAR to be quite different. Obviously, their face options are completely different. But I wonder, if you made them the exact same height, would they really be SO different? I'm honestly not sure.

In any case, like I said, I think it would be enough to make them more distinct by simply giving them different basic animations (standing, walking, running, and sprinting). I think that would really help them feel like they have a bit of personality.

As far as more customization for existing characters... at least for me, I don't feel like I need "more" options so much as *better* options. Hair-colors, for example, there are no realistic shades of red/ginger. Or for eye-color, I feel like it's easy for our characters' eyes to look dull and lifeless if they're not in the exact right lighting.

Honestly, what I absolutely *DO NOT WANT* is to have a bunch of "sliders". Black Desert and Elder Scrolls come to mind, where it is SUPER easy to have a character that looks like a complete abomination. I much prefer simple, streamlined options that ensure your character will always look as though they "fit" the game, than risk "too much" customization that winds up with everyone looking weird.
