I'm really glad we got Hrothgar as a race and I just wanted to make a thread about it.
Its really nice to have something different from the norm and even with some of my problems with the race I'm just happy they got added. One of the minor complaints I had in 14 was how playable races were kind of just a play on human. Elezen were just tall and pointy ear humans, Miqo'te were humans with cat ears and tails, Roegadyns were just giants and Lalafell were just gnomes (I don't consider them Dwarves unless they're from the first). When Au Ra were added they were pretty cool for how different they were but I wished they had more races added.
When they announced Viera I know there were people happy about it but I just kind of saw it as "Its cool but its just a tall human with bunny ears" not bad but I felt if they were to be the final race it kind of would've been just okay. When Hrothgar got announced I was really excited even with how they looked in the trailer and that went away sometime after the reveal trailer and when they said both Viera and Hrothgar were the final races to probably be added to game I was happy about what we got.
I do hope they make more helmets wearable for both and I'm sure they will. Honestly my only complaint about Hrothgar is just that you have to Fantasia in order to change hair and that's dumb. Also the replacement for not being able to change your hairstyle with the barber being your eyebrows I find really dumb and pointless. It should've been just being able to change skin tones considering our skin is fur so it could've worked.
Sorry for the giant wall of text about me just being happy for Hrothgar being in the game but I just wanted to do a positive post about this and I hope they improve on it more. I wish for more now but I'm just happy for what we got and looking forward to what they do.
