Any chance for Steampunk weapons/more races for post-launch classes?
I find it frustrating that every post-launch class is both race/gender-locked and doesn't have a matching weapon skin from the Steam Powered pack I purchased.
I know that designing themed weapons and animating classes for different races/genders can be a hell of an undertaking even at the best of times, especially since each race/gender moves and carries themselves differently based on size, cultural influences, etc., but even the hope of being able to change any of my characters to a race/gender that appeals more to me aesthetically would be a real treat.
As far as new steampunk weapons, I would figure the post-launch classes would be pretty easy to do weapon skins fitting those themes. For Reaper, steam-jet powered scythes with folding blades and a brass construction with the glowing red tubes would be just one example. Ninjas, of course, could have their shuriken's blades fold similar to how the Archer's bow folds up. Knuckle weapons would likely be the easiest to design. Of course, Valkyries could have a folding-blade or a collapsing pole, and the blade could be similarly designed to the Slayer/Warrior's swords or even the Berserker's axe.
I know that the primary developers of the game are based in Korea, and their primary audience is their primary concern, but I'm holding out hope for some new things like Human Male, Amani Male/Female, and Popori Brawlers, Castanic, Popori, and Amani ninja, etc.
As far as races go, I haven't seen anything but Elves, Castanics, Human females, and Elin since I came back to the game this week. Not a single Amani, Baraka, Popori, and heck nearly no males either. The game feels like there's no thought given to letting players customize their characters to suit their own tastes, at least not any of the post-launch classes anyway.
I just figured I'd post this here, half to vent and half to see if anyone else feels the same. Would love to see if there may be plans to eventually add new race/gender options to the post-launch classes as applicable (Hell, a male variant of Valkyrie could just be called Vanguard or something.)

Additionally, would love to have a version of this pack for the ninja items (preferably also with updated weapon skins for all classes but, yanno, I'll take what I can get). A ninja pack would be amazing, though. Then I could have both! \o/ since I already have the steampowered pack.
Then they'd only need to design the Armor/Helmet and reskin one of the existing jet-cycles and add a Plasma-tech valkyrie weapon (Which could have a collapsing pole/grip and the plasma blade like Slayer's greatsword).
I'm just saying that there's money for offering more stuff similar to the Steam Powered pack that would earn Enmasse and BHS money without harming the economy of the game. If someone wants the flashiest version of a weapon/armor skin, they probably are waiting for it to be posted on market instead of burning cash on RNG boxes that may only have some alkahest or whatever.
