It's obvious if he was to make a statement in 6.2, it probably wouldn't be to many hrothgar players liking. Maybe if he gets on his hands and knees and begs for hrothgar players' forgiveness? That he is dropping everything so he can put ears on a hrothgar hairstyle?

As if I am the one settling for low quality, I am on these forums constantly posting for quality.

From my view, it seems more like people are demanding rather than being "hopeful". I'm sorry if, on occasion, I try to make a reality check. Frankly, in my opinion, at this point, Yoshida shouldn't have even bothered with hrothgar hairs in the first place. A good intention turned sour. I don't fault him or SE if they truly are ignoring hrothgar players. I tried to back you all at the start, but it has gotten really out of hand.

Oh yeah? It's not like every single hrothgar pretty much looks the exact same with the exact same face, even more clones than miqo'te!

Rejoice! I'm done here.

That's...completely fair, actually. I am, admittedly, one of those people who are talking in circles on this long after it has been discussed to death, and who doesn't believe him. At this point I'm mostly just venting. Anything constructive was probably said in the days following 6.1's launch. I have nothing left of value to contribute to this I suppose. You are probably 100% correct on this. I very well might not believe him even if he does come out and make a statement. Sometimes saying nothing is best. They've already done enough damage, in my opinion. No sense in digging that hole of theirs deeper.

Maybe that's because... Y'know... There's NOT AS MANY OPTIONS. It's exactly why there's work to be done on hrothgar and why people are wanting a degree of transparency. As someone who always has been, and always will be a Hrothgar. It sucks seeing that people feel this way about hrothgar. But we don't all Look the same because we want to. When you only have 8 options which is locked to 2 per face, It's kinda hard to not look similar to someone else.


I wouldn't know though. You seem to have the idea that we want him to drop everything when we don't. We just want a modicum of respect and not a bunch of recycled bullcrap. You wouldn't be happy if you played a race that hadn't been updated for 3 years, left with muted, terrible textures. Constantly touted to be unique but shares models with Roegadyn to the point where we don't even have our own Hempen under-gear.

How hard is it to design something that fits uniquely onto a race?

People wonder why some hrothgar players mod when they're given sub-par excuses?

Is hroth hair still tied to the face? If so, does this mean I am correct in assuming that when Square adds new hroth hairstyles to the game, that you need to purcha$e a fantasia to access them? Or did they change things recently?
I'm asking because I genuinely am amazed if it's still this bad. And anyone who bought a fantasia for that awful new hair deserves a refund.

It would sure be nice to know we'd be getting all racial styles in 6.2 but we can't even have that because "its hard" and new hrothgar options are allegedly going to take longer because 3 years just wasn't enough time.

Even then, they didn't even give us new hairstyles, they just made duplicates of the heads for each hairstyle rather than just... Y'know... Making the hairstyle interchangable... Oh and they also flattened one of our heads for the hairstyles too. Instead of doing what they'd do for every other race like making holes in the hair for viera ears or adding in a mesh for Miqo'te ears. Instead they just whacked in Kimahri's forehead with a hammer and called it a day...

All whilst you can STILL SEE holes in hrothgar hair at the right angles.
