Blame Squeenix for why we all play as Miqo'te

[PotatoSalad]

You know what's boring? Miqo'te.

Boring emotes, boring dances, boring lore, over-sexualization by both their lore and the player bases. (If I bump into one more gods-forsaken cat person asking me for ERP...)

Why? Too many people play them. It's over-saturated. Cliched. Annoying. Boring.

Honestly, at this point Midlanders themselves are more exciting - and much easier on the eyes.

Your move, Kaiba!

That's so sad that you don't own novels.

Confused, if you can understand to not like reading, why then would someone who doesn't like to read own a novel? Is there some other use for a novel that I missed?

Everyone knows Fem-Roes are the superior species in Eorzea. >w>

Hey, hey, hey! Don't forget the men as well! For what are we Roegadames without our Roeguys?

Same species, fairer sex. Equality!

Believe there is so much cat people as people don't get pet spayed and neutered. Please control the cat population.

What you are speaking of is genocide. You wish to neuter us? Well good luck finishing your dungeons when we're gone! If you can withstand the queue times to get in that is.

Darkchild... do you even understand what neutering means? > All of that kitty-kitty inbreeding isn't helping the Miqo'te intelligence levels! (Unless... snipping a miqo'te immediately kills them afterwards. Neat! Science!)

I wouldn't mind the queue times if it meant player migration from cats.

Miqo'te are just as bad as lalafells playing one means you dont get to criticize anyone's race choice and from the list of downsides to the other races given(and i cant even say that with a straight face) i see how you have conveniently forgot to mention that playing miqo'te makes every head piece look like batman and tails clip with every single piece of armor, even the ones they added tail holes for. None of the "reasons" you have given affect the game experience nearly as much as those.

You say that like it's a bad thing.

Not sure where the OP gets the most people play Miqo'te from, I see just as many Elezen and Hyur's running around...might even see more ankle biters than the rest in my experience. I personally have two Hyur, one male and one female plus one Miqo'te which is male. I have had played other races though and tend to switch between them depending on my mood using Fantasia's. I also had an ankle biter for quite a while. This thread in my opinion is quite pointless as the premise behind it is false, the premise being SE intended most people to play Miqo'te plus the rest of what was said is so highly subjective based on the OP's personal opinion that it does not lend much credence to the claim made about SE's intentions.

I'm not bored as a human. O.o

Yes I know. I got my own cat neutered in real life. Miqo'te should have equal rights. If we get neutered, every race should get neutered.
And I find it funny that people keep posting stats and percentages showing that Hyur are the most popular race. But the stats don't show how many of those Hyur are bots.

So what is the actual point of this thread?
People play what they want, you shouldn't have to care about that.
If you like miqo'te, so be it. If others choose something else, so be it. Their choice.
It's not like you have to stare at their character the whole day.

Well, uh... I see a lot of cat people wherever I go... followed by Lalafells, but I love lalas, they are adorable. I would hug all the lalas in the universe. As for the cat people, I've heard people saying that they always wanted to have a tail irl... I'm not implying it's the only reason but that was the one that made me wonder so many things about it. As a true warrior race (highlander, the FF saiyans), I'll squish the cat people with my bare hands if they ever want to be "cute" in front of me. Thankfully the population of cat people will get reduced when the dragon people get introduced... as far I can read in this thread.

This is pretty much what I said several pages ago, but clearly no one listened. Seriously, the direction this thread took.

... no. This thread already went that direction with the original post. *Sigh* Only one thing left to do now due to the way humanity is...
