Are customization options finished?

Night elf has an incredible amount of options and some races have only a few new ones? What gives.

I was checking out the PTR and a race like Blood Elf got what? 3 new faces, 3 facial hair options, 3 hair styles and some skin shades. Meanwhile Night elf has 3 entire categories? Ear shape, brow style etc etc.

Please tell me they aren’t done.

I don’t know but there will probably be more customizations later, they said they would add new stuff for allied races

Dude I’m so happy for you guys. Nelfs got so much good stuff. You guys look awesome.

They said they were intending on adding more throughout Shadowlands.

We’ll see if they do or not.

Blood elves also got ear options.

here we go again

I hope they do but I mean, I am pretty sure the cancelled the one shoulder transmog option, so I don’t know anymore.

They have 2 different ear sizes, thats true, but compared to Nelf holy cow.

I wish we had more faces though

I would trade all the night elf ears on my head for the short Blood Elf ear option.

I’d have to find the source, but I believe they said they would continue doing things for customization on the .5 patches (e.g. 9.0.5, 9.1.5, etc).

Right now, it’s almost guaranteed they’re not going to add anything more until at least 9.0.5. They have too many other things to worry about (leveling in SL, items, squish bugs, balancing).

I played with the new options and really loved the BE I created with the new options.

Sure, they could just flood us with colors and styles and piercings and tattoos. I wouldn’t be against that, but it’s a pretty good start.

I guess, but seems like they wouldn’t allocate any work from the art team into game systems. That’s a different work load.

And don’t forget, you can be pretend High Elves now. No other race got that.

Night Elves and Humans definitely won the customization lottery. I have a feeling it is to try and make up for their burnt tree, but then again, the Forsaken lost the Undercity and their options are still kinda lacking.

That gave them skin! What else could a zombie ask for?

I’d love to see skeletons!

Upright posture.

You’re correct, in that they’re different teams, but highly unlikely they’re going to add more assets that could add more bugs into the system, when they’re already in crunch time.

I imagine they are currently working on new customizations and the like. I just think a realistic expectation for when they’ll get added is after they’ve launched .

There were/are some bugs with how customization was viewed (created some monsters on the PTR and beta clients with melding faces and assets not loading properly. So, even though it’s a different team, I don’t see them adding more risk to the pool right now while it’s do-or-die.

Night elf women need tattoos.

I also want tattoos for blood elves, and well every race that didn’t get any. I want gear tattoos for my gnome.
