What if we were given another tiny race

They do, it's very appropriately Japanese of them.
My comment wasn't about whether I felt they could or should add or remove any race from the game, it was pointing out that someone's logic was sound (even if that makes SE hypocrites).

He's concerned about the game being shut down because of this.

Glad Lala's got in before the ethical concerns.
I hope that all this doesn't stop them from adding Lala/Taru taru/Lilty like races in future games.

It's not gonna happen but Fae.

I'd personally enjoy another short race I could pick from.

When I was younger I fell in love with any and all short races in fantasy settings. I also fancied that they were traditionally built stout and comparatively rounder.

As a woman who has a similar build, I enjoy presenting myself as such in a virtual format. Every other race - when I force myself to try them out - is basically just 'super model 1', 'petite model 2' and 'body builder model 3' to me. Not bashing the other races - as I consider all races viable and valid - but until a body slider becomes a thing, I loathe the idea of presenting myself as such.

Plus I love being short. From the Gnomes of WoW to the Asura of GW2, shortness - from my perspective - is beautiful. And more choices that allow me to pop a fantasia and remain short is desperately wanted.

Does it suck that people judge me harshly 'cause of my choice? Yeah. It stings seeing how Lalafell and their respective players are treated. But - eh - people have every right to their opinions.

I know that's not what you were saying, but the fact that people are being disgusting with Lalafell in game doesn't mean they should just open the gates and give players actual child models of an existing race like T'kebbe and Khloe.

I do sometimes wonder if they regret not going with Lilties instead, like you mentioned, as they're a bit further removed from any child connotations.

I do not support the idea of another small race.

Aside from all the looking like kids complaints, I just dislike details being scrunched up or left out due to small characters not having the room to showcase gear details... (aside from helmets...)

But if they ever did a Spaceballs crossover, Lala's would look the most appropriate dressed as Dark Helmet due to their proportions. >.>

Please refrain from comparing new small people race ideas to children, please. I made this thread so everyone here could have fun talking about what their ideas for a new small race would/could be besides the already established Lalafell. Not about how inappropriate child looking races are. If any of you really feel the need to talk about such a topic, then please make a thread of your own discussing that. Thank you. ^^

Yes, this is indeed a public forum, so if you don't like what I have to say then go make your own thread about the subject you want to talk about. ^^

Dictate?
Isn't that just a request we stay on topic?
