Your initial post was literally just you posting some random Lost Ark hairstyles. Nothing about whether you were talking about texture quality, or length. Hence, moving goalposts. I also find it hilarious that you're almost praising WoW's hairstyles, while posting a set of hairstyles that were modeled nearly a decade ago (the Void Elf ones being minor adjustments to the Blood Elf ones).

I'll just copy what you enjoy typing so much "Agree to disagree".
Having played both MMOs for 7+ years, I've changed my hairstyle in XIV significantly more often than I have in WoW, simply because most races only have a few decent hairstyles.

Oh, and you should know that the ponytail hairstyle is the last one to be added from a community-voted hairstyle design contest, with player-submitted hair designs. In fact, there's a total of 11 hairstyles from the same contest already available ingame. So a good chunk of hairstyles weren't even designed by the company that you're complaining about.

EDIT: To add, before you go on another typing spree. No, I don't think XIV is some perfect game without flaws. The game definitely has room for improvement in several areas, texture quality being one of them. However, it's a bit silly to complain about that, considering Yoshi-P has already announced a significant texture update coming in 7.0.
