I agree with a few posters in here that I would rather see the current races Character Customization expanded.

Add some new faces for each race/gender (we only have 4 faces discluding midlanders who for some reason get 5)
New facial feature options, body tattoos/scars, mixed races (they don't have to be freakishly mixed btw), etc...

But sadly chances are we will get something like Viera, because SE is money hungry & they know people will pay for Fantasia's just to change to one.
So don't worry people who want Viera, it'll be yours for a price you'll be more then willing to pay, along with Fran's hair and outfit for the low price of $15-$20 per character!! -_-
