I'd love to play Viera, more so if they use something close to the XII models and show us the finished concept for the males. We really don't need more shorties, I think; and with Rabanastre and it's history as well as a clear line of character familiarity from XII already in the picture it would make the most sense to go closer to that established and well loved look and race aesthetic/lore than to go left field and turn the highly environ-attuned woodland mystics into walking plushies and or kawaii anime body pillow wannabes on two legs. Feels like that would be a huge regression for the Veira if they went that way.

I feel like I have to comment on the meh towards Roe females though. A lot of the bias I see against them both in forums and in game has more to do with players who play them than the race itself. Very sad folks don't know or recognize the difference between those two things but eh.
