Viera didn't blow up as big as we all thought.

Pretty much the title. Quite a lot of people stayed au ra and miqo'te.

There has been a lot of times in dgn and trial I was the only bunny. Odd but viera didn't blow up as big as au ra did where almost everybody was one.

That's funny. Out in ShB areas and around QS I see nothing but bunnies.

It's a combination of a couple factors
They're gender locked with the hair and headgear options being limited

I blame voice 7
The granny

Their voices have made it a tougher sell for me. I can’t settle on a battle voice yet. I will be tryin them out soon, but I need to do more testing :p

General reasons I can see them not totally taking over:

-Not smol
-Emotes are stern / non-cutesy
-Hair is limited
-Head gear is limited

Not being short is probably the biggest reason for most. Which is odd if you think about it, I'm still getting use to it myself tbh.

Au ra did blow because everyone had a free fantasia, and this time only the one who did buy the fantasia did change.
Obviously other factors such as limitations matter, but my logic still makes sense.

I would say that Fantasia is the most probable case.

I could understand the hair argument for Hrothgar, since it's tied to their faces. But Viera have a lot of hairstyles and most likely will get the other styles implemented for them. So if someone really wanted the race and can afford the Fantasia, they would change to them.

As for height, I can't see how some thought they would be short. People asked for Viera like Fran. And they got what they asked for.

I think this is the reason for many people. Most players I know just had the desire to try it out at least once, including me, but most of my friends stuck with their races, I guess $10 for a fantasia isn't worth it esp when you don't get to wear your fave headgear :P

Must be a server thing; seems like about 1/3 of Zalera is bunnies now.
