Hear me about: Give us a Frog-based Race

I need the hippity hoppity in my life.

Go put on your frog suit, silly.

Frogs....tasty?

Closest to a frog race are the ropoggo (from FFXI), and they're just familiars Matoya created. Somehow I don't see this happening... ribbit...

LOL

Well damn, this is probably one of the few moment where one realize that maybe being treated like a zoomer is not bad at all...

Thanks, I hate it that I know who that frog is, now I felt like a fossil...

Don't worry, I brought enough pain pills for everyone's backs.

If only Capcom cared enough about the series to give us another one that isn't a mobile MMO or whatever the 5th one was...

Dragon Quarter wasn't a terrible game, it just wasn't a very good Breath of Fire game.

I know this thread is only half serious, but think about this realistically

Even if SE were to give us yet another new race, who's to say it'd be a fully fleshed out race? Viera and Hrothgar to this day are half assed, and if SE can't get something as simple as allowing bunny ears to clip through a helmet, then they're not gonna be able to even begin to implement a frog race when the comparatively simple races give them so much trouble.

Small indie company and such

Well, if CBU3 want to play safe with new race, there's Hilda, a Elezen/Hyur hybrid race.

Like seriously, Elezen/Hyur hybrid race is probably the least time consuming to make and at the same time it will be quite well received by general FFXIV player.

On top of that Hyur/Elezen hybrids don't have hat-ear issue like Hrothgar, Viera and recently miqote, nor Hyur/Elezen hybrids has tail clipping issue like Au'ra and Miqo'te.

Is definitely a boring option, but then not many folks can genuinely reject the idea, as well as temptation of being a gorgeous Elves with gorgeous body proportion?

I played froglok ranger in EQII. It was fun. Not sure how it would work here unless it was a transformation like tonberries or such.

HONESTLY this or a similar elezen like race that doesn't look like an elezen would be amazing

All this talk of frogs and no one mentions best frog?

Tbh I feel like they should do it so there is a 2nd short race so Lalafells don't feel alone

Let me guess. So you can be a frog healer, right?

Can we just appreciate the fact that they localized ‘Tapeta’ into ‘Jean’ because obviously frogs must be french. The level of cringe and political incorrectness in the late 80s/90s was something else.

Pretty much this.

Between the hat debacle and recent outfits totally removing tails it feels like the devs actively loathe having to work with non-human features so the odds of us ever getting another bestial race like hrothgar feel slim to none and even if they did it would be almost certainly plagued with the same issues.

It was also an issue of character limits (see also; Spar/Aspara). Of course, the game also suffers from an absolutely terrible translation in general.

I'd love to have Adventures of Healing Frog in FFXIV lol.

Hear me out. Indie company. No resources. Lack of integrity.

Hop to it!
