As a minority, is it out of the question to hope for representation?

This "cat" lady in the art has a femroe's or highlander's body with a bigger backside so I guess it kind of represents more than one race at once.

I want to see some Femroes!

I suspect the marketing here is exactly what others have outlined in this thread above. Cats are sort of an instantly and easily recognizable race of FFXIV; Similarly wow uses Orcs in a lot of their promotional material. Mixing things up a bit could be fun and make the world of Eorzea seem like a wider, more versatile place than Catgirl: the videogame. Even wow's fanbase gets tired of seeing Orcs on everything. So give us more Femroes Squeenix! Give us variety!

As an elezen woman, I'm feel that femezen's show up on event posters enough for me, but I absolutely want to see more femroes. Seeing skimpily dressed catgirls repeatedly betrays a lack of creativity in the art team that works on them. If there's one thing I don't want to see in any part of the majority of my entertainment it is a lack of creativity. I want to see more femroes in art and such like because it shows that the team actually think and use the full range of options available to them, rather than lazily and hurriedly defaulting to female sun-miqo ladies with huge breasts. Give me something varied and unique, and I'll sit here happily considering how rich the world we play in is. Give me the same thing over and over and I'll sit here thinking about how the art team would rather pander than do something interesting and distinct.

I'm loving how it's mostly catgirls getting their tails in a twist over other races getting the limelight though, that doesn't smack of "but I want it to be all about meeeeee" at all.

The Miqo'te is the freaking highest ranked Maelstrom, aside from Merlwyb and her right hand man.

I dunno about that... I feel like Roes are much more recognizable considering just how rare a race like that is in well... everything, their also way less generic then cat girls which are EVERYWHERE now.

"FemRoes are Rare.

Therefore they're more recognizable."

Like, c'mon. Do I need to point out the redundancy?

She's also largely irrelevant to the topic at hand.
