Lupin - make it a playable race!

I hope they don't. This design is very Un-Final Fantasy. It really doesn't suit the world imo.

Well considering werewolves have been in the series since at least Final Fantasy V (plot wise), they've been more a part of Final Fantasy world than most of the beast races which came after.

As far as the design, the only thing that bugs me is the ears are little too big

You've played FFIX and the Ivalice games, right?

Oh I have. It's just the designs in Ivalice and Tacticts, etc... aren't Furries. They are beastmen. This design is a Furry.

What.

How is Beastmen v Furries.. I what?? What, Ronso don't count either?

The Lupin were sorta part of the Beastly Au Ra concepts.


I wish they had kept going for it but they said 'players like hyur and cutesy types'

Burmecian, Wolfman (FFV), Ronso, whatever Baku is (FFIX), hippomen (FFIX again), rhinomen (FFIX... again), bird people (various kinds, also FFIX again). FFIX in general was pretty diverse with their races.

Please no. We absolutely do not need truly animalistic playable races. It would really change the game, and make a total mockery of the existing game lore.

That being the Royal We? (Senn, if you're reading this, I did take that to heart and now try to only post in "I's")
Also, in what way? Did the Lupin bother you that much in Stormblood?

A relatively normal human body with a completely animalistic head is just plain wrong, it doesn't make sense logically, physically or from a story or lore point of view.

Good thing we're playing a Fantasy game.

Who honestly wants Robots as a new race now?

Fantasy or not, games follow their own internal logic. Looking at existing playable races and the various beast tribes it's quite easy to see why it doesn't make sense. Use the excuse that it's a fantasy game ignores the importance of internal logic and consistency.

You can't use it as a lore reason when SE was clearly thinking about it until they decided that the playerbase just prefers 'hyurs' (aka Roes are the least played so obviously beastly types are not desired)....

Nevermind the fact that maybe Roes aren't the beastly look people want. They decided to make Au Ra Concept still a realization. Maybe not an actual player race but maybe they can in the future. But that 'lore' excuse is not one that really makes sense when they even -considered- it.

Roes are hardly beastly at all, they are just muscled Hyurs but the only bearable race in this game for me tbh. Maybe if they were still Galka they would be different enough since Galka are Ursine in nature. But this is a JRPG people don't want to play beastly, they want waifu races.
