I feel like either genomes as a new race would fit great into the game for shorter males or make new sub races for existing races (alphinaud sized elzen, dulia-chai sized miqos , the feol for viera) would give alot more variety in character selection and creation and would make them alot of money with fantasias
Thank you for reading i hope they consider this

Sub races would be neat..
But new races I'm against :\ seeing how Viera & especially Hrothgar are treated I just don't think SE are able to pull it off

Still don't get how they boched Viera so badly when au ra went fine... Did they lose the 3rd modeller that made those in the meantime? And at least female Hrothgar should have had no issues since they have a overall normalish head shape and ears comparable to miqo'te.

Like at the worst they could have just let ears clip through everything.

Long ago they (including Koji) actually discussed the introduction of mixed blood ancestry characters, having a slider between two different races. Then they never brought it up again.

Ivalice moogle's the only logical answer. Doesn't get better than that for a lalafel-height "beast" race.

Buff male vieras with high heels please.

Ivalice moogles seem like a good choice.

- Adds a second small race for variety.
- Fairly similar to Lalafells so they wouldn't break the armor system or cutscenes.
- They have a wide range of appearance variation in FFXII so you could make them cute or pretty grubby.
- Seem to be fairly popular in these new race poll threads.

Burmecians are another popular pick and I would like that as well if done right, but you have to keep in mind the armor system can't handle unusual body types. Would you really be okay with Burmecians being added if they looked like this?

Though with Burmecians they could merely drop the strange hands/feet. leaving the head to be the problematic part, which is less of an issue since the devs made hats an issue for... Viera of all things.

Sure, but if they add Burmecians and they're just a Hyur in a rat mask, are they really Burmecians at all?

It would be like if they announced they're adding playable Vanu Vanu, but then they were just this:

Personally I don't see a point in adding a rat people race without their rat features. It would make more sense for the devs to add a race they can more accurately realize instead of adding an extremely lame watered down version of one.

Now if there were a way for them to just turn off foot gear and adapt leg gear to end at the knee without a lot of extra work then perhaps they could make it happen, but I'm not on the dev team so I have no idea how realistic that is. They may also be very apprehensive about disabling any more gear slots after the Viera/Hroth fiasco, especially given that Burmecians would most likely not be able to wear headgear either given their very unique head shape.

Moogles would honestly be so damn cute xD. Burmecians could be cool but i dunno if i would play as one

I love the Ivalice Moogles and think they would make for an excellent addition!
