Most all the races have the same issue elezen just has it the worst.
This was my elezen btw:



I really did like her face and hair.

You see? She looks very nice. Over time I actually stopped noticing the neck especially when she's in an arm cross pose or in the heat of battle. They can be dark and edgy or very elegant. I wouldn't call them cute like the miqo and aura and I think that's what I like about elezen.

Oh yeah I def noticed that when making her, variety in faces in non-existent haha. In that sense I do get those who’d love some tweaks in the character creation, that would be amazing. I guess I’m weird but I would regret it a bit if they made the proportions more ‘correct’, I actually like the somewhat elongated proportions. In that sense I feel they fill their own niche, they bring something very different to the table. With glams I feel it’s a bit of the same thing, they may not work the best in some glams but work great in others which may suit other races less well. Personally I love the rather classical outfits anyway, and on an Elezen they look fantastic. But I get your points, and I understand it will prevent some from playing one even tho in theory they might like to.

Yep, it's just those things that hold elezen back a lot. And as for male elezen, I extremely dislike the baby face on them. Every time I see a male elezen with that face option, it honestly creeps me out since again the proportions don't line up well and looks... off. It's honestly why when Endwalker drops, I refuse to use the boyish/super young face that the male Viera's have when I fantasia over. It just looks off. Don't like it lmao

I agree but I've also found certain glams look extra good on elezen. I would be happy if they made the run animation a bit less ridged but I like being a rarity . This is what I currently look like, I tried this look on miqo before and it looked really off

True, but then again a lot of the classy glams look better or about the same on Viera (just a shame Viera can't use modern aesthetics yet until EW), since again Viera and Elezen have more or less the same niche with the slender, tall body. It's just that Viera have better animations than Elezen which is unfortunate. Would love to see elezen get some love as well since they aren't bad... just animations.

That is a lovely glam btw, but the neck just throws me off still lol

What you don't like the other two face options, Sin 1 and Sin 2? They have a lot of meme potential. And yeah Elezen are probably the one race that need their own glams because they look so bad in the other race's glams.

Well they certainly do, it's not too hard to create a meme worthy face with those options! But I am jealous of Elezen's hemphen sets, those sets are super pretty.

Thanks, I appreciate it . Yeah the neck is a bit much, I don't see how it would be a huge amount of work to shorten it and clean up some animations.

[Hysorn]

Yeah, Elezen are pretty neat.

Yeah I don't notice the neck in battle either Instead I notice their bad animations. But if you can get over all that stuff they're a very beautiful race, in fact they're the best race imo.

I love how both elezen and bunny girls look. I just can't play them. There is something in the females of both races with the animations where they just SNAP very abruptly into the default standing pose. It is so abrupt and jarring I just can't stand to see it.

I really wish I could play either race but I can't get past that one thing.

[HeyMcFly]

I don't often see a nice looking elezen- Most people make really ugly, androgynous elezen or because of how all of their faces look the same, you don't see a unique one.
I did like my long girl when I had her, but their run animation and body proportions just made me change back to a cat. If they had more appealing hairstyles and better running animations, I'd only play them
This was her
