We'll never get a "final answer" until they're implemented. I mean, do we really expect "final answers" for the content of expansion pack IV in 2017? Of course not. They can only tell us what they're working on now, and just because more genders may not be currently in the works doesn't mean they can't say in a year or two, "Hey, you know what? Let's add catboys."
There's tons of examples of MMO developers initially denying the implementation of something, only for a couple expansions and a few years later to go ahead and add it. For example, Blizzard insisted for years that they had no plans and were not considering implementing old world flying, and lo and behold, Cataclysm brought us old world flying.
Just not sure why we have an 88 page topic begging for "final" answers for a question that simply can't be answered with finality. I've got hope for more genders and character creation options myself, but it's a little absurd to ask for the final answer, when the best they can do is, "We have plans to/We don't have plans to at this time." -

I think as time goes on the likeliness of them adding the missing genders will decrease due to lore.
The game is new right now. In a year it'll still be fairly new. But them showing up suddenly after 4 years would be odd, and very unlikely in my opinion. "Why have they been missing so long?" SE might add lore to give us a reason why they don't show up.
I think putting them in this year or next would be best. While the game is still new - while it makes sense.
As it is, it feels like we're in beta right now.
Perhaps the first big expansion could add them if they have time.
All we want IS the best they can do. All we want to know is if they have plans to add them, and more specifically if they have plans to add them as playable. It's a simple yes or no.Quote:

Especially since the development team and producer/director changed, their answer may very well have changed or become less vague. -

I found that interview where they talk about the missing gender's character models being done, enjoy :)

yeah, but that just says the designs are done, not the models. having artists renders / characteristic details finished and actual 3d models completed are two different things.
oh, I do wants them but 3d models + textures + animations will take a while.
it would be nice for SE to come out and say "yes we will" so we know that they are actually working on it instead of just developing them in stealth mode, if/when the do start working on them ... I kind of think that we will actually get them this time around, but still: keep bumping this baby till SE caves.
*edit*
... and we all have our criteria for what constitutes a catboy:

04-12-2011, 06:32 PMNatabantOh ya i completely agree with you, who knows what stage in the development process they actually got to, hopefully pretty far :P. I just wanted to add another interview that mentioned the missing genders to the pile :).Quote:
