New Racers for Final Fantasy XIV

[lackofwords]

It would be nice if they added some races to balance out the popularity of mi'qote and lalafells. Viera would be ideal, but they are exclusive to Ivalice FF based stories, so I don't think they'll make their way to Eorzea.

I'm not sure how I feel about the dragon kin when they've mentioned it... it feels like it might turn up as another unpopular race like the roegadyns. We'll see when it comes out.

What I would really love to see though is to have them add more lore that's integrated into the game about the cultures of the existing races.

For example my dunefolk lalafell culture, according to the official ffxiv site, sounds fascinating. They live in houses affixed to large beast. This makes it sound like they are nomads living on top of mammoths, but you don't even see this in game, nor hear about it. In fact it feels like all the races are just assimilated into the city-state's culture.
