Viera as the next new race~ Show your support

[Vexander]

I have never seen any evidence that the larger playerbase as a whole gives two snurble tufts about the Viera.

It mostly comes from the in-game polls the Developers put out prior to Heavensward, in which the most popular choice across the five regions was a, "Mammalian demi-beastmen (ex. a rabbit-eared race such as the Viera from FFXII, etc.)"

[Edit]: My mistake, Half-Races were more popular than Mammalian demi-beastmen in Japan, by 1.9%.
