I'm LGBT+ and attracted to women and my viera is gorgeous to me. As a PoC, it was fabulous to finally have my in game physical appearance share some of my own features. Full lips, almond shaped eyes, and (some) larger nose options? Yes please. More of that!
I think the viera are really pretty. I made mine dark skinned and modled her after Rhianna. (hoping the dues are just as attractive if we ever see them) The side profile is the only thing that bothers me a little. Like where is her chin?
I like them more than Au Ra or the cats. I never played them long due to all of them having poofy super round faces, they looked way too young. Viera have a more mature look and the random bunny noses look cute without making them look like they're 12.
I'm a lesbian and yeah Viera for the most part are very attractive. Not just in appearance but their animations and the noble vibe they have.
I don't play as femroe or viera but they are eye candy
As a gay man, I think that the fourth and first options are the better ones, and they absolute lesbo queens and theyre great uwu
Of course i find them attractive. They are after all just Humans with long Ears. If they actually had Fur and would look more like an animal race, that would be an antirely different matter.
Yes, they are pretty. In combinations with their ears, they entire shoulder/head/ear section makes them adorable and, at the very same time, still dangerously deadly. What I mean about that is, I am not much a fan of dolly Kawaii faces.
As hardcore Lalafell freak, or call it midget-only-player (Asura, almost restricted to Yordles, Mascu, Goblins, Lalafell,....), I have generally a hard time to find females of my diminutive species in these games that do not look overly cute (the exception is probably Blacksmith Poppy - which I think is cute BECAUSE she does not aim to be - and Tristana being basically in the army). In FFXIV, I see so many Lalafell that are either super Kawaii or look straight from the Chipettes - you know, the female counterparts to the Chipmunks with Allviiiiin!!! There are certain scarred, more natural or even "badass"-looking Lalafell women and Lalamen out there, I call myself the middle-aged, diplomatic Lalafell type - but else? We have cardboard cutouts in form of Mi'Cats, Au'ra women looking like from a GOLDWELL commercial and the bland Hyurs. And "Femroes" have unhealthy skin colours that turn me off a bit.
So, in short: Yes, I like them. A lot. Far from the super models we had, but still attractively feminine. I have two wildcards despite me being a Lalafreak: Male Mi'Cats and Viera. If there is no Lalafell nor a Red Mage, I give my commendation to the Viera.
Also, even though not related to the OP, but each species attracts a certain mindset. You will most probably not find the buff bodybuilder picking a Lalafell and such. So far, the Viera players with more remarkable looks were interestingly and surprisingly fit at countering my banter towards them and who can widhstand a Viera tank?

They remind me of runway supermodels. It's a different kind of attractive than the kawai-waifu ladies that proliferate the game. There's a..."sharpness" to their features and they make the best bitch faces I've seen in this game.
Still can't hold a candle to my femroe though :p
While I love Fran's look, I think the Viera do look a bit weird to me. If I were to make a character based on thier looks, I would go for a Miqo'te instead, there's something with their options that makes me love how their faces look.
They have their charm just like most races. I see nothing that is straight out unattractive with their faces, they are distinguished, but in my opinion that is by no means a bad thing.
