Missing Genders: A request for Male Miqote, Female Highlander, and Female Roegadyn

If male Mithras come into existence, I can't use the phrase 'Mithra' anymore to describe catgirls. (Although, a Miqo'te is technically a different race entirely than Mithras, right? I mean, why the hell else would they rename them to things I still can't even remember how to spell?)

I'll accept a female Highlander; but that's it. Anything more would ruin my memories. The male Miqo'te child in Gridania's story is enough for me to bear.

I'm sorry that the Lore doesn't jive with your Memories. Especially since your memories are of a different universe.

Female Roegadyn, Male Mi'qote and Female Highlanders all exist in the lore. And theres nothing in the lore that limits their existence.

This is a different universe. Or atleast a different planet in the universe of FFO. Roegadyn are not Galka and you can't mix their lores.

I have no problems with these changes, but why not wait until there's more content to add something like this. Otherwise you'll just have a lot of bored male miqo'te running around.

Also, they would have to re-do the females if the males were to look like that. They'd have to match.

We should build them a spaceship so they can go wander the galaxy in search of Vana'diel

You'd be surprised at the other games that have the males looking more bestial and the females more human, which frankly bothers me. Enough with the "the girls don't look sexy enough if we model them like the guys, make them look more human".

I really wouldn't like them looking like 2 different species. lol :x

Men are ugly, females are pretty, this is true of the human race. But with animals sometimes the man is pretty and the female is ugly, like with most birds and a lot of animals in the animal kingdom. With Roegadyns and Miqo'tes have they bipassed their animalistic natures or are they human, would male miqotes be prettier than females (the xi direction). I think they would go this way with it, and Roegadyn's females would be prettier than males because they are just oversized hume guys (no tails), and female highlander would be cool but in lore I believe male highlanders just use regular human women. (we have a joke that its female roegadyns and male humes lol, that create highlanders).
Could someone link me a youtube vid of the Gridania storyline with the male miqote in it, or just the quest name would be nice, I don't have to be that lazy right hahaha, I am from Gridania its just been so long since I've done the quest I don't remember that damn kid lol. I just remember the Padjal (spelling sorry didn't feel like looking it up sure theres an h in it)

In lore the Female Highlanders are all hanging out in Ala Migho trying to rebuild it while a few males went out looking for assistance from the outside.

Ah I need to re look at the lore some, I've forgotten some bits. So according to that, there are female highlanders. Their character design might be taller than female hume with more muscles, I'm thinking they would keep the muscles lean though and give them more tribal hair cuts. (like the highlander male receiving the human braids from XI, this is more what I mean by tribal, even though braids are culturally almost everyone's, I cannot think about a culture that doesn't have braids somewhere in its ancestry lol)

I could see this coming out with the Ala Mhigo expansion of some sort. The npcs females would look different from our regular hume npcs.

I kinda wish the Community Reps would voice what their opinion was while in the limbo of waiting on Yoshida's answer.

Here's a link to the first CS he's in - http://youtu.be/pr0n18BRfko
and his name is Lehko :P

That's from XI, he's asking for one from XIV. I wasn't aware there was a bit of the story from Gridania that involved them or the padjal, but then again I'm from Limsa.

I agree with a answer we can get a answer and move on. Hopefully it will be a good response and I can start dreaming up what my Male Miqo'te will look like .

It would seem more balanced, but would add strain to the system, modeling, animating, armor appearance, etc.

I just misunderstood you, I saw the manthra from XI, i thought there was one in XIV lol sorry. I would like npcs of every race and gender for sure in cut scenes if nothing else.

Oh my bad, I guess I was too tired last night and I missread your post, I though you meant the male mithra from FFXI lol XD. And ya i would really like to see some of the missing genders in future CS's for FFXIV.

Hey everyone, sorry for the delay in getting this response back to you!

We talked to Yoshida and one of the things he mentioned was that the number of people wanting a female Roegadyn was pretty unexpected! ;) He wanted us to let you know that the team will do their best to introduce missing genders alongside the launch of the PS3 version.

Finally! Thanks Bayohne for the info. I figured they would be released by Ps3 launch if added since by then the game would be fixed. Also guessing with an expansion pack but who knows but SE. This is the best day for me. The excitement just haven't slowed down.

edit: The thread is also #1 now lol

That says a lot . !Glad you guys got your answer

Bayohne thanks for the info! hate to keep working this well, but a while back it was mentioned that "Design" concepts were completed for male miqote and female roegadyn. Any chance that we can get a sneak peak of the designs even if there still "works in progress" to tide us over until there implemented?

Wow, that's really good news lol. Wasn't expecting that response or that soon!

Bayohne, may your avatar's wee ones be blessed with halitosis! I can't wait to see this!

two words. Hell yes~

Best news given in a long while~

Why anyone would want to play some ugly female Roegadyn or a mail miquote is beyond me.

This is rather good news ^__^ I don't know what I'm going to do now though >_> Being able to be a male Miqo'te sounds pretty cool. But, I've already invested in the character now. Hmmm... either way this is really cool.

This is great news! I'm curious to if there will be an option for a race change alongside the possible release for those who had to choose a current gender restricted race, or if we will have to start from scratch.

The lore states an example of a female Roegadyn who is said to be very beautiful actually, so I'm not sure where you're getting "ugly" from.
...*male Miqo'te.

Good news, looks like I'll be waiting for the PS3 launch lol. I don't really have a high level char nor time to play so re-rolling won't be a problem for me :P

Well if they added them and they add male miqote, then I hope they give us the option to change races, cause that is what I wanted to play as if they added it and there is no way I would restart a new character. If not, w/e, but please do. :O

I agree, I would have chose male miqote at launch but now i don't want to delete my character. So I really hope they'll add something like a one time change option.

This better not affect the animation and effect quality. Otherwise whatever.

I'm rerolling to be a manqote. Screw all the time with my jobs... :< (not really, please let us change race when this happens).

I agree that would tide me over :D I'm also wondering if we will have to reroll or have our progress switched . Thanks again Bayohne, Yoshi-p, and the developement staff!
