Where they might actually confirm - "no male Viera".

What a rollercoaster for everyone this will be lol. Clan and gender info still unknown hehe. Still wondering if the male might be the lion like race as suggested from a "possible" leak (could be wrong or not in the right context).

I REALLY hope the crowd doesn't let them get away with not mentioning them.

I really don't want this launch to go through without them knowing that they're making THE SAME MISTAKES as 1.0 again if they infact they didn't even bother making the males playable.

It's looking like female only to me. It's be in poor taste to not have a male model made already if they were going to be male and female. Especially after they showcased all female Viera.

Explain where the overreaction was... specifically. I want to see quotes. Thus far, people are mentioning their disappointments if this goes live. Given that there was no art displayed, nor models show, we have no information either way. Speculations are to be expected. Most of the posts here are even giving the benefit of the doubt: "I hope they don't do this...", "If they do this...", etc. From the looks of it, you're the only one who looks dumb thus far.

This is going to be an unpopular opinion, however, I can see why they would gender lock the Viera race. This would be because very few male Viera actually exist and they live in seclusion the majority of their lives. It would break immersion and their own lore to have a ton of Male Viera running around.
