Please make the Hrothgar Hunch Optional

[Soge01]

As the title says, please make the Hrothgar hunch optional for those who don't want it on their Hrothgar.

In World of Warcraft, the Orc race have the option to be either hunched or stand up right at all times. This would be an excellent feature to add in FFXIV for Hrothgar players, widening the aesthetic choice they could have with their playable beast men.

It would also be nice if this was also considered for the future female Hrothgar half of the race, too. In case players want a hunched over female Hrothgar or a straight back one.

Mr. Yoshi-P, please consider this if you ever come across this. Thank you.

please, this is the only reason I didn't fantasia to a Hrothgar like I intended to -- I loved how they looked in the Shadowbringers benchmark test, but they don't look like that in game, sadly



As people will inevitably bring up, there's a /cpose that lets you stand up straight, but it's only the one pose and it doesn't affect walking animations or anything. Hrothgar use the M!Roegadyn skeleton so they could probably do this, on a basic level, without a ton of trouble, but it would be a lot more labor when it comes to emotes and the like. Hopefully they'll consider putting in a bit of work.

Totally agreed, I was thinking this just today as I went through the gun-breaker quests. The hunched pose really made them un-appealing to me, but if they can be more upright I think they'd be pretty cool to play (just an opinion).
