I can’t ignore this anymore! Something should be done about it!

Hello,
Lead designer Takeo Suzuki here.

butts butts butts

I'm sorry, this is all I can read from the Dev post. xD Oh, SE, I <3 you sometimes.

Everyone knows that in Final Fantasy the boys must be prettier than the girls.

Deal with it!

When I started reading this thread, I thought it was a joke.

I'm still not convinced that it isn't.

[LoLo]

The people that only focus on the fact that the topic is even remotely about butts and feel creeped out about it or weird are very immature. I thought this game was for teens and over?

I guess all the famous artists and even every artist who takes studio art that draw or drew naked people are pervs and creepy by their definition.

Honestly if you have nothing to contribute to the topic, why are you posting here?

This thread is funny! I bet the dev over at SE in some ways are secretly laughing at us here in the US and Europe.

Also this thread is making me think of the song by Sir Mix Alot. " I like big butts"

What i can understand from the response is that to limit the time they would have to work on different looks they simplified the models and armor. I would think this is not the only thing they simplified to get the game back to player hands.

I am willing to add my voice to this as well. The shape of a miqote female feels off, and the weird butt shape is probably the main cause of it. Please fix these character models.

I love this race, but I have considered switching to Hyur because they look better.

SE made a mistake here and they should correct it.

SE made "no mistakes" they simply did what they wanted to do for ARR, we had all of beta to get our voices heard - Btw, December 2012 - July 2013 was the testing phase, a half year to get our voices heard during development and you know the outcome? Yoshi had a particular vision and wouldn't diverge from it at all, if it went against it - "No plans to address/Working as intended", if it potentially hindered reaching the masses they wanted or already in progress - "Phase 2/3/4/Open Beta!"

This is something SE isn't going to "fix", we have to face facts - They scaled graphics and art style back for easier development. The other races were scaled down too but not as much as Miqote, which ironically was the most popular Race and the one specifically targeted.

I blame the Miqote RSE starter gear... when first beta started (the one where you could only play as Miqote SoS and male hume and only Gridannia was available) the Miqote starter gear skirt would clip through the butt when you sat down.. so in stead of fixing the skirt they shaved off the butt.... -_-

I didn't realize models were changed. I thought it was a preference for Asians and what their idea of "sexy" is. If you think about anime, you see tons of characters with big boobs, but I don't see them really focus on a butt ever. It drives me crazy. Glad to know I'm not the only one.
