Viera as the next new race~ Show your support

[Kyuuen]

I don't mind Viera happening, just don't get yourselves all hyped up about a Race that hasn't yet been confirmed. A portion of another certain games population worked itself into a frenzy and got back handed for over hyping the possibility of a potential perceived race.

Theorizing is fine and what not, but don't make things out to be what they're not, at least not until they're confirmed.

ermm, people that say it will not happend, seriously, you can say this?
i means viera are asked for soo long that if they add it simply for be a beastman without be playable it will be a riot... litterally, because it will not be different than slap the face of the community asking for it.

plus soo far the people against it was saying, it's not possible they don't exist in hyadelin, what this raid have proved wrong.

they do exit in this world, now the question is, do the dev really want to play with fire with this announcement and don't use viera as playable race, when it was asked for soo long? who know... added or not, i'm happy to see some link between hyadelin and ivalice... i'm more excited to know if they will use lea mundis as next deep dungeon. since it was said to exit in this world...

what did shock me more is the fact that ashe, rasler did exist in this world... in the last live letter they have said to write the story based on FFT, but this raid was filled to the brink with easter egg from FF12, between nalbina fortress, ashes, rasler... i'm curious to see how they will use this element, more important i'm really hyped to visit dalmasca now!

Reading comprehension went out the door
The game itself confirming viera's existence in Hydaelyn and someone saying they exist is now being stretched into saying that someone said they're confirmed to be the next race when no one said or implied that at all. Do we actually read what people write or they just make it up in their mind that they think they read what was actually not there?

And lets not forget what Yoshi said all along, that he discounted the viera because he felt they were too close to the miqo'te in design and he only wanted to have one human-with-animal-parts race in the game, so I don't think this attitude has changed. Lets not also forget there are other human races in the game that will never be playable for various reasons (padjal, Garlean-hyur, to name just two).

Having said that, I may be tempted to change my mind if viera were added to the game, that they looked (and acted) more like this instead of simply being a copy-paste of the Ivalice version (who, lets face it, are pretty much just like the padjal in personality anyway).

Reading comprehension indeed went out the door, but not on my part, because no where did I say that someone was or did. It was simply a word of caution. But sure, paint me as the bad guy.

Pretty sure that's not the reason especially that part of animal part when au ra are just bigger humans with scale,tail and horn (animal parts)
It was a issue with there feet and au ra were were a better fitting new race
Dragon race for dragon related expansion
Yoshi also said not to give up on the idea

Idea of a stronger looking female race would be key
Since its really only Roes and High landers
Every other female race is scrawny or a potato.

Also a taller male race with a build in between au ra and Elezan would be nice

We'll just have to wait and see.

After doing the 24 man story today, SE are almost dangling it in front of us now. I feel like they're setting things up to introduce them properly, like how Yugiri was introduced before au ra were playable.

Now you're the victim

Sure, I'll paint you as the bad guy if that's what you want to be.

You know this is probably a bait post, and a low quality one at that.

Here I was thinking of showing how you misread my post you quoted, or perhaps something clever.

Nah, not worth the effort. Blocked/Ignored.
