Races you would like to see added in the future

I'd like something reptilian, or otherwise far more far removed from human than the current playable races.

More options for the current races would be fine too, so long as they pass out some more Phials of Fantasia should new body/face features that aren't barber shop compatible come out.

+1 more options for existing races. They obviously went with a mostly human-looking cast and I'd prefer it stayed that way. Beast races have their place in Eorzea as lesser beings.

The Sylph are not lesser beings... You take that back... -_-

If anything, I was disappointed with how overly-human ALL the races are in XIV. I'm assuming they did that to make them a little less extremely obvious that they were just copying the FFXI races (removing Galka tails and giving them ears, taller lalafell, less dhalmel-necked elvaans, etc)... but along the way losing those unique traits made the XIV races look more boring and samey to me. Since it's obvious they're FFXI races at their core, why not offer a genetic modification Fantasia where you could make your character's race more like those? Add more unique elements to existing races (Rogedayns that are more animal like, tails, fur, etc... more feral looking mithras-- er miqotes, squishier lalafells) to make characters more distinct?

The thing is, they could work in the modifications as a subplot storyline maybe... like a whole "are beastmen really beasts?" thing where a less-human player character would be conflicted about beast races vs the nations... something about how both human and beasts are warmongers, a plot trying to shed some light on certain beastmen who are more sympathetic, maybe have some new NPC characters that are unique friendlies, sort of like how there were some beastmen in FFXI that were actually allies (a few gobbies and yagudos from what I remember).

I think people have missed this point as per some pervious posts.


THEY ARE ACTUALLY ADDING IN A NEW RACE.


They've even hired people specifically for this purpose.

I really liked this thread.
You should post it in the suggestion forums

I'm not saying you posted it in the wrong spot this is "General Discussion"
and we are speaking as players to other players,
but I really liked a lot of these posts and I'd like to see them be read possibly.
