We need Dwarves with might.. MIGHTY beards as the next race

[Underdog2204]

Again, not everyone plays to look like a sexy top model. How do i know? Just look at some glamours or characters. I can't tell how many characters i've seen, in game or on the forums, with buckets of paint randomly poured on their faces (surprisingly most are Manqo'tes ) with glamours made out of pieces of gear not fitting together and mismatched colors.

So, based on that, i assure you that there would be people who wouldn't care playing an ugly race.


The more choices, the better. And not all of them have to appeal to everyone. It adds variety.

Choice to these people is asking for the same car in a different colour.

They're "ugly" so what ? Does it mean we couldn't have fun playing as one? Absolutely No.

A wider choice of races ranging from walking Potatoes to tall "ugly" beastmen will always be a good thing. Not everyone plays to be the next eorzean top model. And how adding a race that you don't want be a waste of time?

Look at the Tonberries, there are people who would play them if they were to be a future race, and they are not exactly the prettiest things out there. So why not Viangaas ?

Japanese game, so ugly probably automatic no from devs.

What about Dark souls? :P

The best you get in it is passable after 10 beers.

Eh, this is also a game with an international audience. An "ugly" race also shows the devs willingness to actually build a more interesting world instead of more Otaku-bait playable races we got something with more indepth lore and a more interesting look.

So based on your answer, i assure you that some people don't care about their look, either mismatching things or being too much coloured. Because it's their fun and their choice, there freedom.

Also based on what you said why can't we play the tribe races then ? Be logic : take a look at the tribes, and then at playable races. Dwarves, Seeks, Nu Mouhs, Vangaas and other things would be more into the Tribe vibe for future update than becoming a new playable race. See the evolution of thoses races between each FF.

The answer is: because the devs said so, its all well and good saying why isn't this a thing, but it's down to developer choice. it could be totally possible to play as beast tribes within the scope of MMOs, but the devs just haven't made it a thing, I'm sure CUTS3R and myself and many others would be totally fine with playable beast tribe races, they are intelligent to the same level as other races, and we have many allies among beast tribes (hell, the Vath has an "adventurers guild") and it would make sense within the lore of the echo.

The reason we don't have it because of city state lore. The beast tribes are enemies of the city states and the WoL is a key part of the politics of the city states, Au'ra is toeing the line with Ishgard, but to have a sahagin doing politics with Merlwyb would make no sense in the story, and that is why we won't see that. A beast-like race is completely different though, as it has no existing reputation or conflict with the city states

Here we have one iteration of Dwarves in Final Fantasy. This version would likely be relegated to beast tribe status, and their builder schtick is similar to what goblins are.

This, however, is also a Dwarf. A short, chubby, and adorable young lady.

They aren't "ugly" by any means. They could easily come from Radz-at-han, Thavnair, or Xelvatol. And honestly, a legitimate "fat" body option would be a welcome edition for a large chunk of players.

And dear God, I need some bearded men as much as the next person. Come on Japan. Bearded men know how to wash themselves! Give the guys the OPTION!

Something you can create in Dark Souls III, a Japanese made game.
