I'm so glad Au Ra females have "normal" movement animations

[NinjaTaru72]

I think my run/walk is pretty slick.

Even more so when I have nin set. I walk fast and hold My arms Out like an airplane. But I look weird running.

[Elazu]

Walking is alright, I quite like it. Running however, she looked so stiff, and robotic with the movement of her arms.

I agree. Looks like Miqo'te will still have by far the best running animation.

[Chiramu]

I agree. Looks like Miqo'te will still have by far the best running animation.

I don't know, female Highlander has a pretty cool run.

No swishing of the arms of Midlanders.

I thought that their run and idle animations were reminiscent of Aqua's from Kingdom Hearts. So i never had a problem with that, since Aqua is my favorite character..

[EorzeasNTM]

I think Midlanders stole FFXI Elvaan runs. I would run for days as an Elvaan and always think I looked just like a princess. Imagine my surprise when I fantasia'd to Elezen and found I ran as stiff as a tree trunk.

Now, now, elezen run effficiently. We are the guardians of the Twelveswood, we move efficiently that we may harry invaders incessantly.

Miqote run is probably the best in the game as of right now. Its a casual jog and its probably what you would do if you had to get somewhere quickly on foot.
Roes, elves, and Highlander look like theyre in pain or something and cant move their arms very well.

Hm, I always found the walk and run of my highlander looks pretty natural, like a person irl would do o_ô
And the midlander animation...*cringe* let's say anime-princess-like running is not my cup of tea

[Aphel]

Miqo'te run like how we run in real life.

Lalafell run like children (which kinda suits them).

Elezean run like stiff giraffes/scarecrows.

[Slirith]

I like female elezen run >.> won't stop me from changing to Au Ra though lol

[FoxyAreku]

Miqote males walk and run normally. At least I see nothing wrong with it.

Guess you're talking specifically about girls though.
