Mounts misaligned with terrain on character select screen

On the character select screen, for Ebonheart Pact characters (With the snowy background) the mount is not properly aligned with the terrain. The front feet are buried in the ground while the back feet are floating a few centimetres above the ground. This is especially noticeable with non-horse mounts, such as lions, although horses have this problem as well.
Here's an example: https://imgur.com/a/yoC3h08
This problem can be fixed by adjusting the angle of the mount, or simply by flattening the terrain directly underneath the mount.

    Yes, I agree it's ugly as hell and there is a thing to say here: that's the fantastic effect of the snow, the feet are partially inside and covered by the snow.

    It sucks so much is unbelievable, it seems indeed an oversight that need correction instead of a cool effect as it was intended.


    In the end it's a little thing but gives an impression of unpolished and sloppy to a new player as much to an old one (I remember when I started playing I've seen that and thought "they surely are going to fix this soon, it's a main background in characters selection", yeah... still there).

    And for that matter they could have spent some minutes to improve those screens overall, an example: giving backgrounds based on races instead of alliance, not a fan of my Dunmer in the snow or the Breton in the desert.

    At any rate... there are so many things wrong with this game at so many levels, I'm not expecting anything anymore, nor about polishing or core problems.

    Notice how the front paws are buried in the ground, and the back paws are floating above the ground.

    Never noticed the back ones, just the front (maybe because I have primarily horses) so I really was persuaded it was their "splendid" feet-on-snow effect.
    It's even worst then, mount just badly placed on ground, they could have spent literally 1 min to fix it, seriously sloppy.
