Your image will still remain intact just others around you might differ.

    I get overall from a lore POV that seeing a shorter female would greatly annoy you, but for me personally a wider range of options that allows people to create a character that best aligns with what they desire provides an overall larger net good then restricting something just for the sake of having restrictions.
    Guess we should roll in the 5 feet plus lalafell, along with non midget fem au ra?

    well that might be the point. i kind of understand people not wanting a race like female viera to be able to be much smaller because of immersion. when you play a female viera and all you see is vieras that are much smaller - it kind of breaks your immersion level of said race - since as said before a big characteristic of the (female) viera is being these tall, slender beings. now if you are the type of person that could just blend out every other adventurer around you it would be another story.

    to be honest this is why im going to be a tall, lanky bun boy. i mostly play miqo‘te, if i want something at that height range i‘ll just phantasia back into my miqo boi.

    The problem with allowing a larger height difference is that character models are created with a particular height in mind. Scale them up or down too much and they'll start looking strange next to characters of the same model but set at the other end of the scale, or next to a different character model intended to be shorter.

    While a few cm/inches don't make or break anything imo, I'd have to agree on the side where each race should keep their own flavor of identity because they're all different species, not 'variations' of the same one like we humans are - if anything, I'm assuming it'd be more favorable for many to have a game where there's only "one race" available, but has a bazillion customization options, than to try to homogenize 8 races that are meant to look different, even if 7 of them fall under "a human, but with-" tropes

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

    I get what OP is coming from because I'd buy fantasia's just to have a pick at better designed races & updated character options that have nothing to do with height.
    Or I'd mention how I'd buy Hilda's ponytail off of the mogstation & even though Yoshi-P has said he'd add it if people show interest back several years ago which people have constantly & we still don't have it- and those are just hairstyles people have requested- All we've gotten are several lacking hairstyles from a contest that was botched & medium length hair from the dancer quest due to the complaints of us only having short hair-- People have asked for WoL stubble & beards only to be told "no."

    Updating only the height is an even longer shot & people would want more than just a new height adjustment, so goodluck on your requests
