There would be literal hell to pay if they teased a bunny race, name dropped Viera, AND added the Viera's home (Eryut Village) under a different name (Rak'tika Greatwood), and gave us a different race. That would hurt their game immensely.Quote:

I'll turn an alt into one for a bit and see if I like the animations. If so, I'll think about it.

I do hope they stray away from the "cutesy" type...Don't get me wrong, I love me some cutesy things! :eek:
But Au Ra, especially from concept art and how Xaela race are suppose to be...it's just like "Why?" :x
I do kinda want them to add a bit of an animalstic look to them and not Elezen Height, Miqoute looks with bunny ears
and the overload of cuteness from the Au Ra lol. Really would like something different if I may be honest.
Or hell, just give us copy and paste Viera. I just wonder how they'll go about gear designs...that's a lot to go over. -

If the DEV TEAM DEV TEAM DEV TEAM can actually do a faithful 3D translation of Nu Mou I'm eager to see what they can do with Viera.

11-17-2018, 05:48 AMHaxaanI am SOOOOOOO excited for the Nu Mou, I am a little miffed that they used the Design from Tactics Advance and not from XII, which were more animalistic, since they are a "Beat Tribe". But I am happy they are even coming to XIV at all. Always loved their design in XII and the lore behind them.Quote:

If they had both feol and ordinary Viera, as the two races, it would be good, I'd probably go with the feol. You can appeal to both camps then, cutesy for feol, fierce for normal Viera
-
11-17-2018, 05:53 AMEusisLandaleThe leaks as I recall did hint at two races, Viera and I think Ronso. Been a while, can't recall for sure. If we take that as true, given the accuracy of everything else from the same source, but also take their "This is the last race we add" as true it could be possible to see the two kinda mixed either by gender or tribe.Quote:

If they are not looking a bit beastly then no I wont change into one. I really hope that it will look like how most people want it to be but I am also a bit salty that they will be the last race added to FF14..Which means that I will probably stay Xaela for the rest of the game.
-
11-17-2018, 06:00 AMEusisLandaleNot quite like that, more like a bit of sexual dimorphism. I suppose an immediately comparable example would be Etrian Odyssey 5. Therians had more bunny like women while the men had shorter cat ears, as well as their hair being very lion mane fluffy.Quote:

The males will be small and cutesy while the females will be tall/slender and heroic looking. Makes sense as in nature there are lot of species with the female being way bigger than the male.
-
11-17-2018, 06:02 AMNavras
I hope they stay with the 2 genders for the race though, with the ronzo and Nu Mou for beast tribes, that would be perfect! I wonder if we will get to see a viera preview this weekend? Like a sketch more close to the final prduct? :)
-
11-17-2018, 06:02 AMHeliantheaeI would love that.Quote:

I'm not changing races. Though I did almost want to uninstall and then go outside to scream a bit.
-
11-17-2018, 06:53 AMDarkplanet
I will change races and it will be my main race forever! Lol ever since I’ve started playing ff14 I’ve wanted viera. It’s pretty much hands down my favorite race in the entire series.
-
11-17-2018, 06:55 AMPaladinleeds
Honestly... I don't think I will. I like my Au Ra too much with her dark blue skin and horns.
-
11-17-2018, 07:01 AMIlan
Nope i'll keep my horns.
-
11-17-2018, 07:14 AMAnzamanHeavily depends on how they look and what sort of animation set they'll use.Quote:

Depends how the boys look honestly. If they were shorter and cute I'd give them a try.
Giant, buff bunny dudes just sounds weird. -
11-17-2018, 07:32 AMFreyt
Waiting to see more, but if it's good then yes I will change.
-
11-17-2018, 07:41 AMChaoticCrimson
Unless the male versions look super-cool, I think I'll stick with what I have. I know I'm just a "boring" old Hyur Midlander, but I like how my character looks (regardless of how many people say he looks like Hancock but cooler lol). Still, I suppose if I change my mind I do still have that Fantasia from when I started playing last year collecting dust in my retainer's inventory...
-
11-17-2018, 07:43 AMSoge01
*Screams so loud he shatters the sound barrier*
I'm happy! :3
And yes, I'll be changing races immediately! -
11-17-2018, 07:43 AMRymm
Absolutely not. But I would consider making an alt if they don't make the females yet another copy/pasted waifu knockoff.

Definitely making an alt. -

If the male versions are muscular.... maybe. I do get tired of having too few hairstyle options for my character, but refuse to be a highlander because they have no eyebrows and that's just kind of creepy to me.
Also I don't think we're going to see them as female only. They made a point since ARR to give all races both male and female counterparts (before then Roes were male only and Miquote were female only) -
11-17-2018, 08:37 AMVespar
If the animations are fluid and their run animation doesnt feel "rigid" like AuRa's I will totally consider swapping.
-
11-17-2018, 08:38 AMNavrasI totally relate to that :P i remember when they said it would be really hard to implement it cause of the viera feet... = . = facepalm...Quote:

Those planning to change better ensure they are up to date on their myxomatosis innoculations though. ;) -
11-17-2018, 10:15 AMSoge01I've been a huge fan of Viera since playing FFXII years and years ago! I've been wanting Viera to be a part of this game for the longest time and I would lose my shit if they add both the Pure Blood and Feol versions as separate unique clans based off the originals to the game!Quote:

Although, this little idea/theory/hoped of the Viera's origins being like that most likely won't happen considering Dalmasca was introduced as a side dungeon raid content. So it now makes me wonder if we'll be able to truly explore Dalmasca and the Viera's home forest once Shadowbringers comes out and meet both the clans like we did for Au'ras in Stormsblood. I hope to the 12 above, yeeeeeesh! :3 -
11-17-2018, 10:22 AMSenn
yeah I will
really excited to see how they're gonna look -
11-17-2018, 10:25 AMKageTokage
Bunny boys sound more appealing then cat boys...but not enough to make me switch.
-
11-17-2018, 10:39 AMNestama
Nope. Behemoth/Birdmeric/Leather-Roe for life... and occasionally Urianlafell.
