Character Creation Has A Race Problem

[Magic-Mal]

I've been saying the whole time though - if there is an Africa-equivalent in the game world like there is a Japan-equivalent, yes there would be African-equivalent people living there. I have no problem with that, but we are yet to actually see that such a place exists.

Also, if it does, any Hyurans there are probably dark-skinned Midlanders-or-Highlanders. Therefore, they do not have features outside of those available in the character creator, even if their real-world equivalents do. Would that be a bad thing if they were included but didn't have the "true range" of possible facial features?

But we need to know or see where they come from to have the facial features or hair? I mean we got the first look of an Au Ra in 2.55 and were actually able to play Au Ra when Heavenward came out. Then 3 years later we finally saw where Au Ra come from. Before that, Au Ra pretty just appeared out of nowhere and were walking around like it was nothing. But only because the devs decided to make it so.

When it comes down to it, the devs can give the options and choose to say they come from anywhere they please.

I mean they invented Ivalice now. Now we can apparently have Vieras, Bangaas, and Seeq... suddenly.
