Viera is nothing like an elf besides being tall. It's the problem male aura have, people call them elves just because they're tall. Everything is either an elf or a hyur to you people. If roegadyn and midlander aren't fierce then to please such a small % of people that want a woman monster (going beyond roegadyn/midlander) is essentially a monster doesn't help bring in as many people as you think. FFXIV in a lot of ways is FFXiI, the first race concept to be added besides Aura was them. I'm done talking to you though, it won't lead to anything. When your only argument is that you want something fiercer than roegadyn/midlander and that you don't want cute females anymore you're on the extreme side of reality. And before you challenge what I just said, asking for a race that appeared in FF is more normal (and one with a FFXIV design) than asking for a "fierce female" race that was supposed to be Aura (reptile race). And even with the Aura you probably wouldn't consider their original design fierce enough. To you fierce is an extreme definition. The midlander females take it very far already. You can reply if you want but I'm done talking with someone whose definitions are extreme and idealistic instead of considering what the FF series is and what influences it has. Maybe what you need is another game, GW2 maybe?
