I agree. There needs to be more long hair option in these games. I like to make my character look like myself, so it's weird not having more choices than "the bob" or "poorly washed bob". I get it, fighting with long hair would be a pain in the ass, gives an enemy something to hold on to, but I mean, really? Do we have to use that as an excuse in every game? I mean, look at Morrigan, she's got her chesticles hanging out. Tell me that's safe. Tell me that's not a possibility of demonic leverage. Yeah, someone has to be the hot female poster child, but that doesn't mean you should rebuke the long hair because "it's not sensible."
Mass effect is understandable, you're technically enrolled in the Marines, so you do have standards when it comes to hair. THAT is realistic.
Just give me an appropriate hair length, and I will be more than satisfied.
