How you all feel about Charr getting a model update?

[Leablo.2651]

I will settle for removing the quadruped running animation. Still the single ugliest thing about GW2 charr.

~~removing~~ = keeping

~~ugliest~~ = bestest, most unique

Leave my Charr alone!

This.

 

Also, if any of the present player races needs improvement on their body models, it's the (male) Norn.

What's wrong with their posture?

 

I'd rather get the shoulder pads adjusted so they don't float off my fucking body or look massively oversized.

For amusement's sake, WoW Orcs got to see a chiropractor:

That being said, Charr originally had different poses depending on their professions in GW1, the current player model is based on the hunter/ranger one in the original. The mesmers looked super majestic:

Speaking of majestic, this was what the original Norns looked like:

Look at the Neck of Male Charr, its way too long.

Personally I am fine with the charr models as is, but it would be nice if some armor, and most of the outfits, etc didn't look so terrible on charr due to clipping.
