Hrothgar and Viera Hats 7.0 and beyond

[Umashu]

I've tried to be understanding when it was stated that older hats would not be available for Hrothgar and Viera.
We are in 7.2 and they are still making hats that are not available for either. It is patently unacceptable that in 7.2 we can't wear things like the "Neon Street Cap." Among other items the "Dark Horse Champion's Hat of Casting" You can wear the mask and not the actual hat. I seriously think we need to make a petition to get this resolved.

A petition is a good idea.

I would love to have the hats and stuff for my viera, but i think we will never get it and this has a simple reason.

SE or more CBU3 is to tiny to work on Final Fantasy 14, the backlog of them is huge, years of work huge! But they are about 300-400 people in that únit.
While a World of Warcraft or a Star Citizen has over 1000 people, one of the top mobile mmos "Wuthering Waves" have 1500 people work on that game.

SE is stuck in the past, with only about 300-400 people, who most all speak japanese and most of them can't speak english. For an international gaming company this is a no go!
They stuck in the time, 35 years ago, where 10 guys in a office with 24/7 crunch time produce mario kart. They will never do it, if they not change, they must go international and work in enlgish.
Then they can hire more people and start to work on that huge backlog and new stuff.

But so, i am sorry to say, i never will see hats for my viera.

The Hrothgar at least doesn't make much sense, why they got to wait so long, I couldn't really see it being bad for clipping to hide the ears since they are so tucked back... Could just be the head shape?

Viera though will always be difficult I think. There's not much one can do about the bunny ears.

Like just imagining a knights helm or something - unless you completely ignore the ears or have them jut through...

Hmm... I do hope that Viera and Hroth get hats someday I'm going to assume they are trying their best to update all those items and have them not look absolutely scuffed.

I don't care if my Bun alt's ears jut through any hats and helms, just let me wear them plz.

If clipping bothered them truly, we wouldn't have tails and long robes, or weapons visible on the back, or long hair and high collars.

Let's not pretend bunny ears clipping would somehow be worse than any of that.
They just don't consider it a priority and won't until their reputation tanks because of it.

Need big name streamers to cry about it so maybe something can be done.

I had this crazy idea in my mind where if I met Yoshi-P, I'd gift him a physical photo album called "Don't tell me it's not Possible" and it'd be filled with prints of pictures of buns and hroths wearing hats on PC.

See I could understand them not going back and fixing old hats, but 7.0 and beyond I feel it’s unacceptable when we’ve had the races for 6 years.

This part! If clipping was the issue, this wouldn’t be an issue!

[Hallarem]

Yeah. Aside from the old and valid complaint of no hats yet. They are just making it worse on themselves on not designing the new hats to fit Viera and Hrotgar.

It basically has to be some dev who does it by pure charity at the moment. I feel sorry for console players, but if youre a pc player there is the way of true.. black magic to fix this issue
