If the Lupin suddenly became a Playable Race...

Would we be ok with them not wearing hats, or would be on the same road we are with Hrothgar and Viera not wearing hats?
Not a troll post, I am legit curious. Thoughts?

If lupin was going to have been playable they would've done it instead of hrothgar probably.

I wouldn't mind playing a Lupin without a hat. The whole point is their wolf head anyway, right. I don't usually like covering my character's head or face entirely anyway (sometimes I like something covering the eyes only, etc.). If we were able to play as them I don't think I would complain about no hats, but that's just my personal preference.

Preferably they could get hats to work, even a lot of them look funky. Would I still play one? Oh, definitely.

Lupin are way to low poly to ever be a playable race.

There's always going to be a vocal group that won't be happy about it.

If I remember correctly, they said they didn't make Lupin a playable race because they didn't feel they were able to offer enough customization options to make them look noticeably different from each other.

And obviously players would not be okay with a lack of headgear when they are already unhappy with a lack of headgear for Viera and Hrothgar despite being warned about it in advance.

As someone who is and has played Hroth since release of it, and only play one character, and have only played Highlander until Hroth came out, I have hardly noticed the no hat issue. Although I've never actually used the barber shop either so... Yeah.. When I switched races I used my free collectors edition fantasia and still have the other one from MSQ lol.

So personally, actually doesn't bother me in the slightest. Greatly prefer Hroth exist over not existing, even with the limitation.




Hooooowwweeevvvverrrrrrr.... I would encourage SE to try their hardest to reduce the issue in whatever ways they can realistically do so. It doesn't sell as smoothly verbally as it could if it has a number of stipulations and chains and just because I'm happy to compromise doesn't mean other people would be excited to do so on the same issue. (Still happy they decided to go through with it, I'll defend my feelings on that, but I wont wave off other people being annoyed that their mogshop hair doesn't work or requires them to also purchase a fantasia just to use it). Like for example if they can't get Hrothgar's hair issue down and out of the way so they can change their hair at the barber then I think they should just unlock all the fantasia features at the barber so long as it doesn't change your race (such that you don't need a fantasia to change your hair anymore but if you wanted to change races or something you'd still need one).

As how to add Lupin I feel one might be able to just add more customization options or in particular to justify the visual difference another clan. Which can help in not having to add as much lore and assets (while still offering a visual difference worth considering, like how Hroth already have panther and lion options, which are pretty unique and different).
