I really hope that the design of the elves will change to something more alien and ethereal, but in the end Larian doesn't need to take those faces out of the options, but at least add faces with elven characteristics. Just like the image that Goldberry showed.
While I perfectly understand and agree that elves should look like elves (there was another thread that showed that some elven faces were so... rough?), I must say I also appreciate if I'd be able to find a face that COULD be me (southeast asian heritage) in elven form :P Must admit that I didn't pay much attention to elves in general before, though. I liked how Sebille in D:OS2 looked. But given the picture, her face was too wide/round.
I've only done Human and Tiefling so far though, so didn't click through the faces yet.
