    Viera and Hrothgar Headgear ; A request to the team!

    I play a Viera, and I love my bun. I like Hrothgar very much as well. It's been quite some time since these two somewhat unfinished races were released. They are great additions to the game.

    I really want them to be able to use hats. There are so many wonderful hats in game, and yet, I haven't been able to use them. I know it wasn't feasible at the time to make all headgear wearable for Viera and Hrothgar, but I had always thought the intention was there to fix this down the line.

    Well it's been awhile, so if we could please have an update it would be much appreciated! I would really like at least new items that come out to work on Viera, but at the very least can we have an update?

    EDIT; It's been pointed out that it was never promised that headgear would be made available, so basically this request is basically changing to making all headgear wearable for viera/hrothgar.

    That would be lovely, but sadly they were pretty clear they had no such intentions from the start.

    It would've been meaningless if you couldn't go all-out creating characters from these new races, so we decided that helmets wouldn't be necessary.
    So please enjoy going all out on all 4 ear types and 8 hairstyles!

    I would not be so hell bent on them giving Viera and Hrothgar hair and hats if they were honest with their promise that these two races would receive special customization to compensate. It's laughably limited.

    I actually wondered for the longest time if a lot of stuff just didn't get finished in time or didn't make the cut because the current state of these 2 races and "highly customizable" and "going all out on creating these characters" just does not compute.

    Unless they have a very different meaning to those words than I do.

    Yeah but, fur patterns! Very unique.

    Please enjoy going all out on those if you only like to be shirtless all the time!

    so apparently the only option that doesn't "stress the newbies" is either pressing 1211111111, or do nothing at all.

    I hadn't realized this, thanks for point it out to me. I guess then this changes it to a simple request to make all headgear wearable on hrothgar and viera.
