New hrothgar hairstyles are really bad.

Can the devs please just add all the current racial hairstyles for Hrothgar available for every face shape? So hroth can at least go to the aesthetician and choose any of the existing Hrothgar hair/facial hair for the face type they chose? That's a good first step for hairstyles for Hrothgar and should be easier than implementing the hairstyles they released, and honestly those hairstyles all look terrible on Hrothgar even if the ears were showing. Hrothgar are a beast race, I think they should get their own unique hairstyles designed specifically for their character models.

That is what the majority of us tought we was going to get...

Greetings, everyone.

As there have been a lot of feedback surrounding Hrothgar and their hairstyles, we wanted to share a recent update from Yoshida during the recent patch notes reading. On the stream he discussed the specifications of Hrothgar and the difficulties regarding adding hairstyles for them.

Zhexos,

Do you have a date when this report will be compiled or intend on commenting on this thread again?

When you say “We’re asking for feedback,” are you going to communicate with any of the posters here for clarification, or to give any feedback yourself? Will the report be shared at all with us?

Do you read this thread? Did you know haven’t heard back from you since the 13th and on page 104? By my math, that’s about a week and 45 pages of comments ago, and we haven’t heard anything from you, so is there some kind of block or rule where you can’t ask additional questions?

So, if our problem was, nobody really seems to care until we scream bloody murder, and there’s zero transparency, do you think the community feedback here indicates what we want is for you not to interact with the thread? Are you not allowed to comment more than once on a given subject?

Is this how you’d want to be treated? Do you see replies? What have you heard when you’re compiling your report? Am I allowed to ask questions of you, personally? What does a community representative do, exactly?

-Kelly

Ayep. :/
I didn't expect any NEW hair... just the ability to swap them between faces. But not only did we not get all of the hair being swappable but we had (what i personally feel are) the ugliest hairstyles I've ever seen added WITHOUT ears AND with weird skull deformities.
Why.

The Japanese view masculine races as a joke. If they're not pencil thin with long flowing locks, then they might as well not put any effort in them.

I don’t know that I’d throw in any national or cultural generalizations here. People can have mixed reactions to that can distract from the issue at hand. Your point is certainly well-taken that the more feminine Viera seem to have gotten more attention, by which I mean ‘any’ than the more traditionally-masculine Hrothgar, who got hairstyles that not only ripped off our ears, but in some case made us look like furry kidney beans.

I’d just say ‘If I had a hairstyle like this I probably wouldn’t see a female for a couple years either.’

So, maybe we can:
1) Hear from Tony “Zhexos” Caraway, our community representative.*
2) Get hairstyles that don’t double as a form of birth control.

*Because if you give me nothing but Karen hairstyles, you know what? I’m gonna ask to speak to the manager.

Made an account in the forums to express my dissapointment with the "new" hairstyles hrothgar got. Never expected we'd get even half as many as the other races got, but I did expect we'd get something worthwhile for the wait. But even just shared hairstyles across all faces was apparently too high of a bar. Not even the decency to keep our ears with the terrible hairstyles that were picked to add.


Very sad.
