Hair colours from the blog

As someone who absolutely does not want to redo my character and wants to keep her exactly the same, Please Llymlaen, please let SE load Llen from her file in my original FFXIV client. I kept everything intact just for that reason!

Actually, I want to be like this
it will be a pain if we need to make everything from scratch, because then it will never the same character again

I hope SE load our character set by default, then give us the opportunity to do anything

Hope I can tramp stamp my mules

Long Hair option !!!

Not too keen on unnatural hair colors. At least not for the setting.

Stay tuned for more complaints.

If I'm honest I'm not too keen on bright unnatural dyed hair colors being possible either because it doesn't really seem to fit the world's lore. However, I know a lot of people do want this but even more so it's a sacrifice I'm willing to make for the sake of having more customization in general because we have more natural options now as well. The moment that someone at SE has to decide what colors are permissible and what aren't in lieu of providing a full color palette, that's when we end up with the somewhat limited choices of 1.x. The best I can do is just make my own character look natural.

I'll spare everyone a diatribe on my opinion of the cutesy tattoos.... I'll just say I really don't like them but I know that seems to be a minority opinion....

But I am 500 million percent thrilled for all the new and longer hairstyles (for both genders), the sliders, and the overall increase in player diversity that shall follow it.

I'm with you on that. I'm not a fan of tattoos period. I personally think they ruin a person's natural beauty.

I agree with you 1,000,000% on that. I LOVE the long hair option, though! Now my Hayley will have longer hair!

I'm fine with all the customization in the world, as long as it stays within the confines of the believability of the world you create. Make the tone mesh well enough with the aesthetics you already have, or you're going to get a disjointed art style.
Aion had this problem:

But thankfully we are a far step from that extreme. I just hope the hair color remains at least in a semi believable tone.

Makeup however, does look trashy pretty much no matter what. I also am not a big fan of the tattoos either.

I'm cool with the tribal and similar tats. I wouldn't use them on my own character and I don't care for tats much IRL either, but they can fit the game lore as a sort of war paint type idea. But the chickabo and stars... I don't want to run around the game surrounded by middle-school level fashion...

Wow, is that image disturbing. Yes, indeed, thank the Twelve we are nowhere near that. I'll disagree to a point about makeup though. The best makeup you won't even notice it's there without a side-by-side comparison. Loud, overt makeup not so much: it takes very special skill and circumstances to pull that off.
