Wait, but Mi'qote are feline anthropomorphic creatures...
...saying no to this makes zero sense.

Miqo'te are nothing more than fair-faced, Japanese schoolgirls, with cat ears and a tail. Mithra in FFXI actually looked like cat-people.
But hey, SE obviously hit the nail on the head with the Miqo'te design.
To each their own.
I wonder how many of these Miqo'te picked Miqo'te because they wanted to be cat-like rather than an anime-schoolgirl-cat ._. Probably not many but I'm sure they'er there.



A lot of things don't make sense in this game.
AFAIK: The Moon Miqote are more of the Wolve/Dog...race...thus baring canine teeth...I suppose, no slit eyes because they're use to
night times...
The Sun Miqote have slit eyes for a more catty look? But no fangs.
What would make more sense is, for both to have fangs AND slit eyes...and at day time, their iris's slit, but at
night they should have larger ones like the moon Miqote's.
I am all in for add-ons...how hard is it to add a dark nose to the game lol.


I believe this was an artistic choice as the moons are predominantly out during the night. I think I read that suns originally had fangs but this was changed. The eye thing is definitely lore based/trait.. I'd imagine so are the fangs moons house.A lot of things don't make sense in this game.

It would be okay to add as an option but at this point it would be a bad idea to replace all the current ones. However I hope any additional animal humanoid races will look a bit more bestial/animal like instead of being a human with very small differences. Not sure if that is likely with this fanbase though.
If I remember correctly, since it was a long time ago and all, this is how it was in 1.0. They all had fangs (I remember having fangs lol) and you could choose between slit or normal eyes regardless of clan. I could just be losing my mind and remembering everything all wrong though XD
I only chose a Mi'qote in 1.0 because I couldn't stand the way Hyur females ran and I did't want to play as a giant Elezen. As much as I like Lalafells they're a little too small so the Mi'qote was a "close enough" kind of thing lol. When 2.0 rolled around I was already used to my character and didn't feel like changing races.
I'm all for adding more cat-like features as an option for those that want them. I just personally like the more human look the Mi'qote have. I've always thought FFXI's Mithra were kind of ugly lol


The miqo'te are very different to mithra, they look similar yes but it goes far beyond that. The lore for one thing, which I sorta like to think ties into the reason for the noses.
I don't think an option for it would make sense at all. I'm not saying I'm against it but, biologically, how weird would it be for people of the same race for some to have a human nose while their sibling might have a cat nose.
Look at how the miqo'te (seekers) live and act. They're quite often portrayed as being attractive to all races, so even though they're different, they need those similar features. If they had cat noses and furry paws they probably wouldn't be seen as attractive to all the other races.
I do totally support a facepaint option though, it makes sense![]()



Fix the Evenstar Coat erect tail please.
