AGAIN, anything is possible..they MAY some day have resources to do that, and in the future? Why not..BUT...as it stands, (I've a friend who is senior engineer at blizzard) if wow does not have the resources to release a new race and their dev team is huge, this game absolutely does not have the man power to release a race and give us back our 1.x bodies and/or customization, therefore..I would pick the customization IF I HAD TO.

That is what I basically said. Take it up with Yoshida if you want me to "quit making it one or the other"

Doing this is a lot of work, and asking for that is seems a bit taxing on the dev team. Its clear some people have 0 idea of how implementing stuff works in a MMO and how much work is involved. Oh well.
First off, this is SE, not Blizzard. You want to talk resources yet they're canning PS3 so they just lost a good 300 pounds worth a weight. There's nothing holding them back, and if there is something, prove it. In fact, if your not a dev of SE, don't even mention it if you don't know whats going on over there.

Second, the guy is a hypocrite. He said he didn't want Viera because they look too similar to Miqote, yet he added the Au'ra which are too similar to Miqo'te, Fem Hyurs and the Elezens. Male Au'ra have the exact model shape as the Elezens with sharper face models and skinned Miqo'te tails and tagged on horns. Fem Au'Ra look like fem Hyur models with skinned miqote bits and horns (honestly the face models could easily be integrated with miqo'te's for how similar they are aside from the tiny scale textures). If he really wanted a different looking race he would've stuck with the concept art or made the Banghaa or Ronso race. Then again he'd probably make both similar to Roe's at this point.

What's happening is a lot of work is being dumbed down for the fact that SE don't have the galls to do certain things, which is why players ask to give more assurance as to what we want. That Halloween event shows they can make dungeons more innovative, they won't do it because they're not sure if players want it, then we have babies whine about not having time for stuff when they're in an MMO where it takes time to do ANYTHING. You want more customization? Fine, we still want Viera, and I've yet to see anyone say we have to choose between either of them, so quit making stuff up.
