Qiqirn as playable race?

I don't know about anyone else, but I'd love to see the Qiqirn become a player-character race. If nothing else, I hope there are more of them in 2.0. Thoughts, dev team? >.>

there's concept art of a qiqirn outpost of some sort, so they probably will at least have more screen time or interaction.

I support this message! Qiqirn as playable race! Let's do this!

I agree I want to see more of the lesser beast races in their own cities and outposts with more interaction... But... not so much of a fan of playing as one.

Want more interaction? BE A QIQIRN! You can interact with other qiqirn and other races~ :D

I WILL TAKE YOUR KLINK-KLINK!!! :O

Will a goblin be added too?

FFXI has a great backstory and explanation for the Goblins & Qiqirn races.. did they ever touch on that in FFXIV? I dont think they did or I dont remember much about it

As far as I have explored there hasn't been much explanation than "they are here and you may remember them if you played XI". The goblins get a bit of a hint that they are amassing outside the major cities in recent years for some unknown reason but they seem to be travelers and traders just like our ratty friends who like the klink-klink. There's not really a hometown for them as there are the native/original three beastmen tribes.

I had always wanted to see a sahagin in XIV as they are mentioned so much in Limsan missions/lore but they - in the game's current state - are just background materials and a phantom menace. There is a CS that sees you being attacked by "sahagin ships" but as far as I recall you never actually see a beastman crew.
