male miqo'te - How would you like it to look?

[Zumi]

Honestly a cat man doesn't sound to manly to start with. They probably will be effeminate in some way or another. But that won't stop people from using them because they will be the new race and people will want to try them out. I would stick to my female mitote though.

If you think "cat man" yea, doesn't sound too manly. But you think more along the lines of Rei from Breath of Fire 3. It's pretty bad ass. It's the silent killer attitude/look that sets him off. I can see the game still going through with the effeminate male miqote, I wouldn't mind. Hell I'd probably still try it out lol. I want to see what the community thinks.

Effeminate Male Miqote? or Bad Ass Male Miqote?

I'm hoping for Breath of Fire style cat guys -- more like Tigers and Lions than cats. If I could look like Ajani Goldmane I'd be set.

Personally, I'm tired of the effeminate BS. If you want to look like a little girl, play as a female character...

Then again, maybe I'm just raging because I'm tired of living in Skinny Jean America.

Albeit I don't think I'd like that (its badass but not FF) I'd much rather that then the sissy yaoi-catmen some people seem to be drooling over. That said, I've said it several times and I'll say it again: They should up the creation tools big time so people can have their emaciated effeminate girly-catmen and let people who want a more robust character have theirs.

Everyone wins.

I think every race needs to have both "super masculine" and "[censored as "girly" for derogatory language]" males. That way, us manly men can curb stomp the girl guys in PvP.

Side note, Khimari Ronso says hi.

Frankly, I wish they had gone with FF Tactics races... Viera, Muu, and Bangaa would have been awesome.

Hah, fair enough.

Assuming the censor was to cover up a derogatory word for gay men, how will you feel when you get curb stomped by a cute slender built "girly" catboy?

Girly men =/= gay men.

Thanks for being pretentious though. Sorry that I don't like stupidly feminine guys? At least if you're gay there's a reason for it, but being girly just for the sake of being girly is weird as hell to me -- especially if you're supposedly straight.

Interestingly enough, I'm not a fan of the fact you feel that they are the same thing. One of my best friends is a distinct masculine homosexual fellow, so I'm not even sure why you'd jump to the conclusion that what I was attempting to trash gay people... Oh right, I know. Its that whole pretentious thing.

Additionally, thanks for taking the joke waaaay too seriously.

To answer your question though -- I wouldn't care, because it's all numbers and they really don't represent -anything- in the real world. The statement was, ironically enough , a joke.

They just look the way about 90% of real life men look like..maybe some people just want to look kind of..normal ingame, instead of looking like a green or red giant packed with muscles
Not saying anything bad about Rogaedyn or Highlanders though, it's just..they aren't my cup of tea.

I do realize there are people who strongly oppose a feminine looking male Miquo'te, but really, you already have two whole races which can satisfy your needs.
Now I want eye candy for people like me who like their kitties a bit different >:3

Basically, I don't even want them to look feminine.
I just want them to look boyish, not all that grown up yet.
Female Miquo'tes hardly look older than 14-17 either, so..to fit them, I don't want 30+ years old furry lover fun.
I understand some may fear they become yaoi bait, but..that's exactly what I want them to be, haha xD
So I don't want this:

You know, I'm just largely tired of the depiction of heroes as adolescents. Sure, I understand there's a target audience, but I just greatly prefer realistic characters. (that's one thing I hated about FF12, how they recast Vaan as the main character just to have a younger guy as the lead.)

I think they should go the Phantasy Star Online route and just make it so that you can slider-out your character between young and meek to old and burly. That way we can all make our characters suit us perfectly.

Personally, I like my characters to look as much like me as possible, and going with the shortest Highlander is the closest I can get. (not saying a cat man would be closer, just saying options are always nice.)

Now I wouldn't say that.
