New Hairstyles Soon?™

[Baramaat.7439]

So I've literally never created a post before, but I'm watching the new Dark Crystal series on Netflix and would love if Asura would get some Gelfling-esque hairstyles. I think they would fit perfectly with them and the game in general - also I just want to live my best Deet life. I figured I would broadcast this thought into the ether, because why not.

I think the permanent hair kit should be removed, which makes ANET unable to make money when updating a new hairstyle.There are thousands of purchaseable hairstyles in many MMORPG game malls in China.But GW2, it seems that it has not been updated for several years.

If that happened.. would you refund my £200 I spent to get it ?

[Baramaat.7439]

Well, I don't have a permanent kit, so they'd still make money from me, lol.

I want new hair for everyone e-e

I would love to see new hairstyles.

It would also be nice if we could get new faces and new ears. The selection right now is underwhelming. It is true not just for asuras, but for all other races as well.

I would gladly pay for additional character customisation options, even if I had to purchase extra gemstore items for each character.

I agree on new hairstyles, but we also desperately need some decent faces for Asura. Most are ugly or creepy beyond compare (males) or overly "cutesy wootsy" in a creepy way (females), others look like little children. All are way too "anime" for my taste (liked them better in GW1).

[Henrik.7560]

Need more hairstyles and faces for sure

Me too, actually.

Yeah some new faces would be nice as well, there's basically only 4 that I truly like.

Both my asura have the same face. I can't stand the others. Charr males need some better faces too. Most of them are hideous and need extreme dental work. :p

[Chasind.3128]

I'd be more excited to get new character customization content than new story content at this point. I get extremely disappointed each major update when datamining shows no plans for new hairstyles/ faces or anything else related to improving our characters physical look. I don't want transferred hair, but improved hairstyles- not anime looking ones that are over-exaggerated.

Here are some hairstyle samples we needFemaleHuman1FemaleHuman2FemaleHuman3

Sylvari Males can share the hairstyles.

I’d love more Norn hairstyles that aren’t braids or gravitationally weird ponytails. Like a thick lob with bangs, or something shoulder length, back-combed with metal accessories.

It’s been a while since any race got anything new hair-wise.

[Frostfang.5109]

I agree with OP. I'd be superexcited over new faces, hairs and horns!

[Weindrasi.3805]

I would like the current hairstyles to be improved. There are WAY too many braids and ponytails that are stiff and immobile. I really like this charr hairstyle and use it on one of my mains: https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/File:Exclusivehair-charrfemale10.jpg. But it NEVER MOVES and I hate that. If she tilts her head up or down, such as during a /crossarms emote, the braids stay stiff and straight. It looks incredibly stupid. Or when she dies, and her braids are sticking straight up, floating in the air. The hairstyle would also look better if it actually considered her horns--the hair should be drawn to fall AROUND the horns, rather than the horns just clipping through.

[Dante.1508]

Only 3 Asura ones .. so sad..

[Kashrlyyk.5364]

I don't want new concrete hairstyles. I think it would be better if they added animations to the already existing hairstyles. Or at the very least to all ponytails and bangs.

Having an animated cape but concrete unmoving hair looks so stupid.

[SoulGuardian.6203]

I really want human hair in sylvari.Reason I don't have a sylvari.I personally don't like it tbh.Imo, they should have human like hair.Maybe thicker, bushier, but hair nevertheless; instead of leaves and twigs.

[Vasdamas Anklast.1607]

I'd rather see some haircuts appear under helmets like tophat over new haircuts overall. Like seriously at least make that a thing for gemstore cosmetics

[Glider.5792]

With the amount of hairstyle kits the BLCs dropped, i dont think we're getting new hairstyles again. There is not much to profit from them.

[Regh.8649]

Sadly, I recall an interview for some site that they were aware ppl wanted more customization options, but they were not focusing on that at the moment.

I'd love to have more long hair options for asura that aren't updos.

[Fenom.9457]

I don’t get why people care quite so much as they do, but in any case I’d like to see more options. Anet can make money selling hair style kits, it doesn’t make sense how rarely they do it

[ugrakarma.9416]

i wonder how ppl says "game is dead". a bunch of pack with hairstyles, capes, whatsover is enough. this game is far from dead.

Because the vast majority of helms fit terribly on charr. For that same reason I also want more faces and horns!
