I find the characters in this game really ugly/weird

They look like typical animated characters to me.

Have you ever heard of the disorder Prosopagnosia? It causes people to have difficulty perceiving/recognizing faces and facial expressions. A common complaint people with this disorder make is that other faces look 'weird' to them. Perhaps your dislike for in-game faces is an aspect of something like this.

There is definitely an creepy vibe with certain races/faces. I personally can't stand the Au Ra face 1 because of this, for example.

And yeah, Viera and hrothgar have some nice polygons/texturing on their faces compared to other races so it isn't as bad, probably because they are new, the other faces need updating to match. I can't go back to Au Ra or Miqo'te due to it.

And Lalafell look like hell-spawn when they grin and cheer, those little gremlins. I am also creeped out by them, OP.

Changed to Hrothgar for the moment, I do like it better than Elezen. Thanks for all the replies.

Ugly? No. Weird? Sometimes. I find WoW characters to be those things in my opinion..I mean, in game model characters.

WoW graphics look way more modern. Just compare BfA and SL to SB and SHB. Feels like dropping that crapstation 3 support didn't benefit us apart from getting main city without a loading screen

I wish character models would finally get new textures, it would have been about time with Endwalker.

I'd love for them to clean up the textures on some of the older races as well as fix the hat/hair issue on the new races. The biggest thing stopping me from playing viera is the limited hair and hat options.

I've pretty much played every race apart from Roe and Hroth and that's more because I can't find a face option I like.

In a dream situation for me, they'd rehaul the character creation with even more face options and customisation options as well as more colour options for hair, skin and eyes. Like aura for example: I love the last face but the horns are horrible on it and love the horns on the 2nd face but hate the face

Lalafells are pretty ugly tbh I wish they replaced it with loli'qotes like Khloe Aliapoh and T'kebbe Morh

The biggest problem is actually customization options (textures too). A good hairstyle can completely alter the look of a character, similarly something as little as stubble could make a big difference for male hyur. On top of that, I think this game has a lot of almost good looking outfit pieces, by that I mean there is always something extra on it; something that ruins it, or makes it difficult to dye. A good outfit makes a big difference for a character's look.
