    Please give Viera visible hats

    I mean, I don't think there's much else to say other than the title. There is no reason that the hat should always be invisible on the Viera.

    The ears could fit through ear slots like the Miqo'te's do, or they could fold back. Or better yet the option for both? Any of those solutions would be great. I'm just missing out of a lot of really cool looks because unless its glasses or a mask, headwear is permanently invisible.

    The Choral attire, the red/blue mage outfits, or really any other full gear set just feels like its missing something. It's just a bit of a bummer, tempted to swap races because of it.

    This, along with Hrothgar headgear is something that is currently being worked on by the dev team. Didn't hear anything about it or any update at the most recent FanFest but we do at least know it is in the pipeline.

    The reason is workload. They stated as much when they released Viera. In order to give them more unique ears, their heads work differently than the ones of Miqo'te and Elezen - at least thats my understanding of the issue. (Same goes for Hrothgar, I'd say its even more visible with them that they got unique headmodels).

    On those particular suggestions, they can't use Miqo'te earholes because their ears are positioned differently on their heads. And I don't think it's possible for them to fold back into a different position – they're set to show or hide but that's probably all they can do. Making them fold back would essentially need a second ear model that turns on when the other turns off, and I don't know if they could do that. And players just don't have the fine control over those things to do it manually.
