Just for fun, race changes!

Will you change your race at ARR? What will you want to become? Is there anything that you've wanted to switch to that you've seen on 1.0 but didn't, because starting over again was too much of a hassle?

Personally, I'm bored of Miq. We're way too common for my tastes. If new hair styles are definitely happening (or even better, happening at character creation like concept are of RSE seems to suggest!) I have a strong feeling I'll go with a female elezen this time around.

What about you? Have the new races got you going, or are you sticking to what you are? Discuss!

Male Miqo'te, might name it Snarky Fuzzyboots :3

Sticking with miqo'te, but during beta I think I'll make a female highlander.

If it were not for my lalafell companion, I don't think I could play this game. I might give him some war paint this time around though.

Adorable. Especially if you are snarky on it.

I'm quite undecided about female highlander! I like the idea of girls which aren't superskinny and look too weak to even hold their polearms/GA/Insert weapon of choice here let alone combo with them, but how curvy female Roes seem to be from concept art definately put them a little higher in my list.

Except for some plastic surgery make-over I'm staying mi'qote but I'm gonna make alts! :p
Those would be a female roegadyn, a male mi'qote, maybe trying out a female high lander, too (because I'm really curious about their looks).

I'm staying an elf, but I'm sure I'll make some alts with the new races so that I can experience the other nations' storylines.

<= why would I change this adorableness? :o

sticking with this one, since this is me from head to toe
might gonna make alt if its really free

i'll try a few things during beta, but i don't think i'll change my lala

I miss my Lalafell too much to change her! Perhaps some small revisions, depending on what additional options are made available.

I will definitely be trying out other races though for Beta. I fully expect to spend a number of hours going through character creation.

Hmm, I wonder if we can delete and recreate characters during each beta phase, or if we're stuck with the first one we make until the next phase...?

I'm just going to re-roll alts in beta until I get a look I'm satisfied with to apply to my main character.

I'm planning to re-roll to Lalafell; I played a Tarutaru for 5 years or so on FFXI and I didn't want to "cast Raise" on him for 1.0. I used to say "My Tarutaru is currently resting at Vana'diel and he's not planning to make his way to Eorzea...", so I decided to play a Highlander, even though I tend to play races not resembling the typical adult human being.
Now I've changed my mind, so Umo Heima is about to shrink a bit...

I'm honestly not sure what I'll change into... Female highlander looks cool but I hope they are not as vanilla as their midlander counterparts ><. Female Ro looks awesome too, but if Miqo'te have any cool extra options I might have to go that route.
I do dearly love my elezen though... I don't think I can make an informed decision til phase 3 when we see all available options on the character creator ;;

I can change in a female elezen. Midlander and miqo'te are too common

I think many are holding off to decide.
The real question is how big can a Lalafell's boobs get.

OFC myself, I will stay a Seeker of the Sun.
(they will have a better rack than the moon kitties)

I think with the make over and my trusty side kick the Lala, i'll be just fine as is

Well I can't decide yet.

Elezen male, male Midlander, female Miqo'te, male Miqo'te, female Lalafell...

And I am curious about Female highlander and female Ro, if I also like them, then it will be even harder.

I will make more characters, but I really want to focus mostly on 1 character this time.
I guess I Beta I will try out a lot.
And I probably will spent a lot of time in character creation.

Every race and gender has a different personality for me.
I mostly played Lalafell /taru, I play them as shy, and that is closest to my own personality, but I love to play a character that is totally different then myself, I done it once at the beginning of FFXIV 1.0, and I loved it.

I wonder how long it takes before I have made my decission. :o

O.o Idk I can't %#@~&?* decide! I'm like 75% Lala atm and w/e Miqo...

I swear this thread was already made about a week ago..

Not changing anything on the main character most likely, unless they sneak in playable Qiqirn, in which case I'll be starting a new main character :)

lalafell/taru for life.

In beta Del will don some kitty ears and stick a kitty tail on to moonlight as a male Miqo'te and see how I like it, if I do he will do the same in ARR.

It was.

We're all bored and impatient :D

Fiddling around in our imagination about what we're going to do helps :D

*tosses some yarn*

That's "His yarness, Snarky Fuzzyboots, Lord of the Yarn!"

Anywho, I always wanted to be male kitty since XI. Felt too weird playing a girl, so meh.

Male Lala getting genetic radiation therapy to change to a male kitty.

My name is sooo lalafell that I think I'll stay lala. At one point I did think about switching my race, but I just can't see myself as anything else. I will though play as another race in Beta.

I will never give up my lalafell. They are so cute and so much fun to play. xD

LMAO, that made my day XD

Won't change my race unless and until they introduce a more non-humanlike race.

Pretty much all of my friends will be on PS3 because they have crap computers, so I'll probably just start over on one of the noob servers... Totally gonna stay Lala, but go for the ultra dark skin and glowy eye dunesfolk look. Blm ftw

I have thought about this since Female Roegadyn's were but a whisper. I will only change race if the Firefall faire swimsuit is equally as sexy on F Roegadyn as it is on Miqo'te.

I wanted to play a male Mithra all the way through XI, and I still do... But, I've grown attached to my Elezen, and my name would be a problem. Somehow, I don't think I could pull off Hope Estheim the Kitty. >.>;

I don't know, I think it's sort of cute. If you don't look at it from a XIII perspective.

I'll probably try it out in beta. :o

I'll create a new female roegadyn so that can show you how big bully I am! mwahaha /wrists

Nevertheless, I will stick with my miqo'te. >:3
