VIERA AND HROTHGAR COMPLAINT MEGATHREAD

[LuciaMirain]

I think some of the viera hairstyles just look too low on the forehead and still find the others look like they are sitting too high. Granted, I havent played miqote or au ra in a while now so maybe I just remember it wrong but I think some hairstyles are bordering fivehead territory on viera. Is it the facial structure or something? Idk.

Sums it up pretty much.

Not to get everybody's hope up for nothing, but I believe they gave a sneak peak of Hrothgar hairstyles being unlocked across faces (or at least more being made universally available across the 4 faces.) They previewed a face 3 Hrothgar with the shoulder-length hairstyle currently locked to face 2. You can see the dramatically curled, upward tilted ears that are unique to face 3. Picture courtesy of a Hrothgar player on Twitter. Grain of salt until the patch of course but I'm optimistic.

Seems to be the case to me. I'm no Hrothgar connoisseur, of course, but that's the conclusion I reach with that pic.

This would be the best news in this Live Letter for me! I wanted Hrothgar hairstyles to be unlocked ever since SHB, even more, when I saw the NPCs in Bozja!

Those 2 images do depict a face 3 (Coeurl) hrothgar, their ears give them away. I think that the first picture is having a face 2 hair and the second might have either face 1 or... it might be a face 4 hair (the Khimari hair).

If this is true, which I hope it is, then THANK YOU SE! Finally! This is the best news we could have gotten for the males! If it isn't....then consider my heart broken.

I'd like to open a discussion on this, because I think this may be the hairstyle face 3 already has, but the headgear looks to have some feathers or leaves attached to the circlet that makes the hairstyle look fuller on the sides. I think the widows peak matches the existing hairstyle perfectly. I don't want anyone to be disappointed or take this for granted, so do you think this makes any sense?

The headgear has been previewed in better clarity already and it does not feature any feathers. The floof is only coming from the hair. I think there's no doubt this is a picture of a phase 3 Hroth with face 2 hair. Whether or not these changes are being implemented this patch I don't know, but I take this as confirmation that it is a priority for them. It wouldn't even be the first time they've shadow dropped changes without making a big fuss over them.

Not-Auron, not-Hien, and not-Gladio hairstyles, someday you'll be mine

Yeah, they didn't unlock the hairstyles. At this point I'm just not gonna get excited anymore...
