How Would Viera Fit In XIVs lore?

[Kyuuen]

XIV had an official race poll, and Viera won. Every week or so, a new Viera thread pops up. There are giant forum posts of Viera threads. Yoshi P is constantly addressing questions about them. It is the most requested race.

No. No they did not. Mammalian demi-beastmen was part of said vote you are referring to, in which Viera was used as an example to explain what that category was. Stop claiming this bs narrative as fact.

D-Dalmasca?

Well.. Considering YP stepped into the public space to talk about Viera shortly before HW released... It seems silly to say it's not a highly requested feature.. Not to mention the many polls.. including this one.

Yoshi-P stepped out to talk about it due to concept art being shown that he didn't want shown. Said concept art being that of the Au'Ra being drawn as Viera.

1) SE themselves stated Viera were the most requested race in the older new race polls in ARR and 1.0 days. The devs themselves even drafted up pages and pages of concept art, the best of which was released in the Stone and Steel artbook.

A quick google search will give you much of the concept art.

He also VERY RECENTLY stated that Viera is not off the table. https://www.finder.com.au/final-fant...ormblood-viera

Again no, Mammalian demi-beastmen was the winner with Viera being used as an example to explain what that category was. In which said "Viera" concept art, was of the Au'Ra but drawn as Viera.

It's cool if you guys want Viera, but stop with this bs fact bending to fit your narratives.
