Current state of Viera and Hrothgar

Now, you may add that "They're busy with the new gear!" and you'd probably be at least partially correct.Now, you may add that "They're busy with the new gear!" and you'd probably be at least partially correct. But I doubt professionals would be as swamped as they pretend to be, when amateur modders can have hats out and ready at the gates with mere DAYS of work. And we're talking about passionate, but still hobbyist individuals here, as opposed to professionals hired by a multi billion company.

Though to be honest "busy with new gear" is quite a lazy answer.. Have you seen some of the stuff they're putting inside the game? There is so much aweful gear and in each expansion is always recycled gear just with different colors.. You can't tell me that it's so much work to copy/paste gear designs and change the colors..
Cause like you said yourself.. modders already did that.. So it is possible..
It's been almost 6 years and there is no sight that it will ever be fixed..

And then there's the issue of hairs.
Female hrothgar released with 5 hairs. Five. You could literally count them on the fingers of one hand. Even worse, we STILL have hairs locked to certain faces, for whatever reason.

Locking certain features behind certain faces is a massive red flag..
I'm playing as a male Viera since Endwalker and I just want some nice facial hair for my character..
But to get that facial hair (and the options you have doesn't even look that great) you have to use a certain face..
I really tried and I don't like the other 3 male Viera faces.. For me it's only Face 1..
Face 2 & 3 are looking like femboys (that's totally fine if you like that) and Face 4 is the "old man" Face..
All of them have some kind of facial hair..
Only Face 1, the most "neutral" one doesn't.. Why?

At least implement the cash shop/exclusive hats (Matoya, etc) that cost REAL LIFE MONEY on top of the ACTIVE COST OF THE MONTHLY SUB AND Expansion releases.

And don't forget the event exclusive hats.. I wanna wear my slime king crown for fun..
