Viera Should Of Happened

[Annah]

Honestly, I don't want to see Viera.

I want to see more new races....not rebranding of old ones.

And your thinking we're getting more customization why?

Considering we tend to get; in the least, a new hair style/s every patch, it's not too far of a stretch to think we'll see a couple more options with a full expansion.

Sometimes opinions are better kept to one's self.

Simply following the game though, beast races are generally considered enemies, except for one tiny tribe that feels like the most obligatory quest givers ever. I'm not sure why we're given quests to help the enemies, but it certainly feels very contrived.

Aren't you playing as a race that is half dragon? I don't care how anime they made Au'ra, you are still half dragon from a lore perspective. Also, You can't say the beast races are considered enemies. In a lot of cases yes, but that does not devalue the chance of getting a beast-like race. You say that beast tribe quests are contrived, and they might be for maybe 4 of the beast tribes (all of which are ARR), but in Heavensward there was a much greater push to establish conflict between beast tribes, and alliances between them one half of them (like the sylphs).

Edit: Aren't dragons/goblins/moogles/Qiqirn etc. our allies??

[Thunda_Cat_SMASH]

Dragons are allies... until someone breaks the treaty anyway. Goblins, qiqirn, and moogles are all enemies though, without a doubt. And I'll be honest, I haven't unlocked the hw tribes, simply because there was no reason to. I didn't like any of the tribes we had access to, and I'd rather be killing moogles than helping them as punishment for all those annoying leveling quests...

You're playing a FFXI Mithra

A race that's older than Viera.

Incorrect, they are anything but related to dragons, as the lore which you think to quote has specifically detailed. Yes, people of Eorzea ASSUME they are of dragonkin by their appearance, which does actually create distrust and a social rift for them. But they are nowhere near in relation to dragons. Their "horns" aren't even the same, nor are their genetics even remotely similar. It is all purely coincidental until those in control decide otherwise.

Aura was a asspull so they can asspull a nonkawaianime race that is more beastly too, dont see the problem


also im pretty sure a killed a ton of elezen and hyur in dungeons and story quests so i dont know what you talking about with the story says beast race are evil. If you actually follow the story it says some of them are "evil" some of them are not, like the rest.

You probably don't even read text from the NPCs that explains why you're helping your "enemies".

exactly and i would have preferred a completely unique race rather than 90% human 10% animal
