Viera race

[boopadoop]

Aside from Lalafell and Roegadyn and female Elezen, most of them look way to similiar to each other.

1. Male Au Ra and Elezen look alike.
2. Female Hyur, Au Ra and Miqote are almost clones of each other.

I can understand why people (especially those that play female avatar) want to have different race that does not look like the current ones. The Viera only shares one thing with female Elezen, they are tall. Personaly, I want a full beastman type of race like the Charr from Guild Wars 2.

^^^^about races looking alike
literally elezan=stretched out hyur, roe=bulky hyur, lalafell=tiny hyur, BOTH miqo & au ra=hyur with animal traits (furry/scaly bits)

tbqh if they add viera w the weird feet they'd be the most unique models & would add something that doesn't exist in -any- of the models. feet that aren't human. lol.
so...how they'd be too much like hyur..well.......everything is like a hyur, w modifications. so. that argument is silly.

22 expansions into things, looking at a 23rd later this year, and Everquest has only added Iksar, Vah Shir, Drakkin and Frogloks as playable races. They have also only ever added two classes (Beastlord and Berserker).

Adding new races or new classes/jobs with each expansion is not the standard practice.

Why? Cause Everquest doesn't do it? Well how about TERA online releasing 4 classes as patch content in five years? Or Warlords of Draenor being the only WoW expansion not to give a new race, a new class, or both. And all proper expansions beside Chains of Promathia gave FFXI new jobs.
Yeah I think it really Is the norm.

Thing is, I like having new things to try. And I am always drawn to the most exotic(weird) class/race combinations. So if we get a race that is not like the ones we have now, I'm going to get a fantasia. or at the very least create an alt.

I would rather see an "ugly" race like a Bangaa or a FF4 Dwarf race. Hell even a artificil/mech race like they had for the Mime in FF Dimensions.

No one cares about Roegadyn, we are pretty unpopular

I think we should hope and ask for it all eventually, why not!

1. many more customizations on current characters, would nice to have many more face choices, weight choices, more noticeable height adjustments, hairstyles of course, tattoos, ability to wear eye shadow and blush (sheesh) etc

2. a very small cute race BUT one that is proportioned properly unlike lalas...(no more saggy diaper cowboy walks and bowling pin shapes..heh ..I have a lala too!!, but their shape makes me cringe)

3. might as well throw a real horrid looking race in too for those that like that sort of stuff, the more people pleased, the better!

4. the Viera look cool and could be a nice addition as well

its all good.

Viera again?

[Savagelf]

with ffxii coming with with second version we might see a race

[KaitlanKela]

My preference is just more customization given to the races we have.

And if we have to have a new race NOT Viera. There's enough anthro-pets in this game already. Furthermore, they're not going to give them a unique model for their feet armor on all the gear, so they will have flat feet, which is one of their more defining characteristics. They'll just look like Elezen with bunny ears. It'll be lame. Trust me, we don't really want this.

[Windi]

I do kind of want a new race, but I don't really know what we could have that would distinguish them over what we already have. I personally would prefer a race that looked more "anthro" than human, like the beastmen tribes, but then that entire concept conflicts with the narrative of the story of the game (all of the playable races collectively being referred to as "man" as in mankind).

[RubyCirha]

Personally I would love to see viera added to the game but I would also like to see new things for curent races and posable new tribes of existing races like new face options aditional sliders to custamise more fetures on your charicter
