VIERA AND HROTHGAR COMPLAINT MEGATHREAD

[Caro178]

Don’t worry about it, neither of us would have known what they actually end up adding in game and to be fair, anyone would have expected the actual popular hairstyles to be added instead of yet again short unisex. Samsonian is nice I guess, Ill have to see how it looks on my character.

For sure. At the end of the day it is still more options and not every option needs to be for me.

On a positive note I think these hairstyles just prove how gorgeous, feminine and stoic fem Viera really are. I think they all look good on my character and give her different vibes even if they aren't hairstyles I would have picked out of an immediate lineup. The braid is pretty unique and they all have nice hairlines for the head accessories (tiaras, flowers) we have access to at the moment.

We'll get them all at least we are continuing to get 6 added per patch.

Two of basically the exact same short style

Everyone else has those two short styles one after the other, and in the long run I would rather they do everything as systematically and consistent with the order of the other races' list as possible. Different people are still going to prefer one style or the other out of the two.

Don't fret about patch by patch. The final goal is having everything available. We will get there.

Well, you see, the problem now is they already DID skip styles in order (fringeless wavy from last patch and now the bun as well as the bob) so if you're hoping they do it systematically and consistently they already stopped. We kind of don't really know what they're going to add now and when. The order was broken as of last patch and continues to be more broken this one.

I agree with you, of course. The goal is getting them all and we will eventually, but this patch is undeniably a big disappointment in terms of options compared to last patch. On an individual level I think they are all fine and I hope folks get use out of them. If you're looking for someone fretting you are responding to the wrong person tbh.

Yes, and I think that's disappointing. It's still not a reason to hope that they'll skip even more.

Where did I say I hoped they would skip more? I think you are misunderstanding me completely. I personally do not care in what order things are ported as long as everything gets ported eventually. All I said is it is evident they are skipping styles which means we no longer have a definitive way to guess what will be skipped and what won't be (in terms of character creator styles.) In the end they will probably all be added but I am curious what exactly makes them decide to skip some styles and add others. It seems like it's being done with no real rhyme or reason.

I can not care about when things get added and still be disappointed that we have to wait a bit longer for preferred styles. These are independent thoughts.

Pretty happy with the roster for Hrothgar and Viera this time. Was expecting 2 and got 6, am pretty happy. We also got to see that we in 2 patches will get Windcaller and Samsonian Locks! But if I was to be a debby downer, more like in 3 patches (7.1) cause they might say that 7.0 was a full expansion and adding the hair on top of that might be too much. Still, happy with what we got, not only Hrothgar got some beautiful options but also Viera finally has some styles that show the forehead without goving them a 5 head! Good job, SE, keep it up!

6.0 included a Viera update so I'm sure 7.0+ will continue the trend until they are finished. Thankfully they fixed the fundamental problem and we always get new styles so they aren't continuously digging themselves deeper, just digging themselves out of the hole they created. Eventually they will reach the top.

You seemed disappointed that the two similar styles were included at once, implying that the solution would be to only include one of them.

not only did viera get every bozja hairstyle before the actual race of bozja but hrothgar still dont have the ability to use their own racial hair regardless of face, because of freaking course we didn't why would we
7.0 gonna be the first time playing as hrothgar is actually rewarding, so like...a full year til then good god.

They better have fixed a lot of stuff with Hrothgar and released female Hrothgar with 7.0, else they're going to see a LOT of outrage. I think everybody in the playerbase would call them out on it if we don't see female Hrothgar, since we'd have been without our other gender for 3 expansions now.
