    I've found there are a few 'stereotypes' when people think of the playable races, and a number of people i've spoken to about this tend to view Roegadyn players and dumb and clumsy. :x

    Thats a dumb Stereotype, Roegadyn are more "Majestic and proud."

    I have to thank Square-Enix for the amazing job they have done recreating Final Fantasy XIV from Scratch. Especially the inclusion of Missing Genders which we petitioned for in good faith. This was proof to us players that the Developers are truly Sympathetic to our requests and that being honest and vocal can pay off with the amazing characters we have who are Female Roegadyn, Male Miqote, and Female Highlanders. Thank You SE, Thank You Community Team, Thank You Yoshi-P.

    And like all stereotypes, these are foolish and unfounded. They might 'ave t' thick accent wit' loads o' apostrophes, but ain't nothin' dum and clumsy about 'em!

    T' accent's endearin' if anythin'

    Yeah, that's a Limsa accent, not a Roegadyn one. =p

    This pretty much sums up the Roegadyn i partied with today. People were linking leves while he ran off and zerged the living hell out of everything. People missed out on about 1-2k worth of sp because of him.

    Its not a stereotype, but to be a little lenient myself, i think people that play Roegadyns just use their idiocy and play it as an excuse, its because they are Roes. >.<

    I've read a lot of ridiculous stuff on these forums but this has to be a new winner for me!

    It was mostly the same in ffxi though Galka were definitely the least played race

    I find this to be true myself, same with galka's on 11... Usually the dumb ones playing them or people who just act dumb that play em whether through rp or not >.< I'll admit I'm a bit prejudice of them myself, but I do relize that there are tons who don't fit this profile. It's just funny when they do act like this and the fact that at least 60% of em I've seen in 11 and 14 act this way o.O...

    Also I don't how they are considered 'cute' by some people xD Just my opinion but they're big green giants who are overweight (I know its mostly muscle but too much muscle so disgusting and roe's + galka's are too damn bulky bleh) and no longer carry a tail like 11, so to me....ugly^^

    (no offense to anyone!)
    Yes, well, can't deny that it's true to some extend. However, this cliche is made by judging a minority of people acting like this with a Galka char/race.:/
    pretty much like a minority inside a minority acting dumb with people outside that minority seeing the whole group as "dumb". Basis/Root of Racism, sadly.

    Besaid is the unofficial RP server, so most guys on our server picked Miqo'te. :x Lalafell definantly outnumber Roegadyns on our server though, maybe 2:1 or even 3:1.
