More Ethic Hairstyles

[Sumea]

OP: There is no Dreads.
Me, an intellectual:


I agree but I feel like the engine/character model limitations are a thing too - no real hair physics, most long hairstyles are... Not the greatest, lots of clipping issues that we need to just ignore for greater good of the game it feels like.
Barret's hairstyle if a VII Remake crossover event happens tho. Also his outfit.
Just give me barret godsdamnit. I wanna hug the man.

The more variety among hairstyles there is, the better.

[GrimGale]

I am all for more hairstyle variety as long as it gets added to Hrothgar and Viera aswell.

If not then I am against adding anymore hairstyles to the game.

[SturmChurro]

I think it would be cultural appropriation for a non-ethnic hyur to use these ethnic styles. I'm against this.

[Jin-]

Male characters need hairstyle used by H**** Youth and military. I think it's stylish

Please stop.

[Calevr]

I think more options of short/long curly hair and braids would be nice additions.

As a black woman I’d love to wear the hairstyles I grew up with. Especially since I always make my characters look like myself. Something that showcases textured hair with a distinct curl pattern and braids that ranged from boxed to cornrows - instead of walking about looking like I have chemically treated hair all the time.

Rather this then another short anime hairstyle that we’ve been gettin

[Gameovers]

I just want GOOD looking long straight hair. Can I have that? Can I have hair that is long and doesn't make me wear a hat because the forehead looks stupid? Please?

I know it's a joke (I assume) but ignoring that those dreads look like trash, the OP is a male and that's a female only hair style.
Also it has nothing to do with engine limitations. Sure, certain hairstyles could be hard to pull off with the way things are, but not all hair styles are the same.
Not one of these hair styles would require anything the game doesn't already have.
And of these the only one that might be a problem is the last.

Not trying to debate or anything, just pointing out that we don't need to make excuses for them.
Fact of that matter is that for the past 5 or w/e years most of the new hair styles we've gotten were from the Player voted winners from the hair design contest.

And as a reminder ...
"Aspiring aestheticians from across the realm have been submitting their unique and fancy dos, and the development and operation teams have shaved downed the entries to 25 of their favorite hairstyles for both male and female. Now the time has come to see who will make the final cut! Submit you votes for your favorite entries and decide the winning male and female hairstyle!"

They narrowed down the selection themselves to what they thought was most interesting which means that all the long hairs in this thread and these 2 were things they felt they could do 5 years ago. Only about 2 years now have they been making legit HQ hair and with Viera they have shown how much they have improved with hair and face modeling.

Player base screwed us and 5 years later people are wondering why we get so many short hair styles after the player base voted for them. So yeah, we don't lack options cause of engine limits.
