    If SE is going to add a new Race, it will be most likely a race out of the SE-Universe or something totally new.

    The SE Universe has a good amount of different Races, like:

    NuMou



    Urutan



    Helgas



    Garif




    Gria, Padjal, Cleyran, Magi, Yuke, Espar, Seeq, Shumi, Ronso, Rev and many... many... MANY more Races exist in the SE Universe. There is no point for SE to not take on of their own Races or create an entirely new one.

    Whatevery SE will do tho, i would go with Viera, Ronso or something equally designed.

    And there's no doubt in my mind that they would be able to work this "magic."

    Also...how about some battletoads?



    Just think how fun the emotes could be

    Didn't Yoshi-P, back just before the game was released, say the next race (and we are getting one) would be a fully bestial race? I think he even went so far as to specifically say Viera were -NOT- going to be in because we already have a humanish race with some animal features (Looking at you Miqo'te).

    That being said, there are a lot of race he could pick, but bestial would definitely have to fit the bill. Maybe h'll go Ookami style like wow lol

    Or.. big surprise....


    Maybe it'll be Mamool'ja (or some other already existing race in the game).

    Yes please. I'd actually roll both a female and a male Viera if they looked like that. As it stands now, I'm not really fond of how female miqo'te faces are built. (Plus since viera have no tails, we won't have more dead pipecleaners attached to our rear ends)

    Other than those, we have the Garlean Race that could be added to the game.
    Unfortunately, the fact itself that those races are involved in those quests makes them not an option for playable races. In the WHM quests for example, the NPCs make quite a big deal of the fact that you are not a Padjal. So how could a player of the Padjal race do those quests? As much as I'd love a child-like race, I gave up my hopes on seeing Padjal accessible the moment I read those quest dialogues.

    I'm 99% positive whatever new race we'll get to play will be one that is unaffected by the quests and lore, unless the developers are willing to go back and give unique quest dialogues for those races. That doesn't mean they won't necessarily be cool, though!

    While they've certainly created some interesting looking concepts in the past (I love the look of the Urutan in that image you linked), there certainly is a point to creating something new. Eorzea is not any of the previous FF worlds, and it would do it a great disservice to just rely on recycled content when it has so many unopened doors available to it.

    Ok I know theyre the popular one but Viera are too much like Miqote, IMO. Id much rather have a non-human looking race for once. I think Ronso or even Freya's race from FFIX would be great additions. Something with a non human like face at least? Maybe some claws (not like Miqote who just look like they have arthritis)? Maybe paws or hooves for feet? Fangs maybe or horns? No more cute fluffy ears pls.

    lol, I could see it now. You walk towards the boss at a snails pace then one shot it once you reach him. The trick is surviving the walk. Wouldnt be a Tonberry if he didnt do that lol

    Well then - Tell SE to remove:

    FFVI Magitek (Already kills your logic of this isn't past FF)
    Cid (Staple of FF worlds, including being an Airship creator/maintainer/pilot etc/mechanic)
    Moogles (Handles your Mail in FFIX, Handled your saving, were party members etc etc.)
    Chocobos (Including the upcoming Chocobo Raising, which appeared in FFVII, FFIX and FFXI.)
    The Job system (Found in FFIII, FFIV, FFV, FFVI(ish), Tactics, Tactics Advanced, FFIX, FFX-2, FFXI, FFXII/International, FFXIII-3(ish) Including any upcoming jobs.
    Titan
    Ifrit
    Garuda
    Ramuh (tell them not to implement)
    Shiva (Tell them not to implement)
    Leviathan (Tell them not to implement)
    Any other future primals
    ...

    You get the point - Even Blizzard reused things from the Warcraft universe for their MMORPG based on Warcraft. They're would be dis servicing themselves by not keeping FFXIV in line with FF games or they should drop the FF title and elements already present.

    The fact that you can list a whole bunch of stuff they've reused already only emphasizes my point: To inject some originality into this game, they should develop new concepts for races when the time comes, something to distinguish Eorzea from the slew of other FF worlds.

    WoW and Warcraft take place in the same universe. Of course they would "reuse" things. >_>
