So many people playing as miqo'te!!

[IndieVarro]

I started out as a Miqo'te and I still like the race more so than most of the others. The only reason I decided to change was the fact of there being SO many cat people running around. It seems all of the races have something that bothers me about them though, and I've changed from Miqo>Highlander>Midlander because I can't make up my mind. I'll be sticking with my midlander for now, at least until I change to Au Ra.

I personally play Miqo'te, because I love their ears, tails, and emotes. I also like the face marking and eyes. I'm a female irl, but I have alts of every race, and 3 males, 1 each of Miqo'te, Au Ra, and Elezen. (Male Auri are.../swoon) I have 2 femRa as well, one Raen and one Xaela) Miqo'te will forever be my favorite though, because it personally reminds me of myself, height-wise. (FemRa max height is my irl height, though)

Arise!
I play as a cat, because the character is based off my cat, who is a cat. If it weren't for my cat, there would have been likely one more in the femroe crowd. I have been really wanting to at least try derplander though because I hate my character's face. I've been trying to find ways to cover up the face for now.

They dont have one to stare at :P

What this person said is true. I've gotten a few chuckles of pics in which a sexy look is intended and I can't help but think "man... the thighs really just go straight into the abdomen!"

How do you guys find these threads? Google? Digging deep into the General Discussion's section? Forbidden rituals?

Maybe the search bar? What possesses people to look for specific things.... your guess is as good as mine.

I think pervy boys wanting something sexy to look at is actually a minor reason this race is chosen so much. I've seen sexy females of all races all over Eorzea and the far east, and RL females often choose Miqo'te as well. Female Miqo'te are simply cute, pretty, lively, feisty, and have some really good animations. They fit well with most jobs and glamour options, and are the closest to looking human without being one, so the generic factor is completely erased. I would actually be surprised if the female Miqo'te population was lower than it is.

I personally don't play one because I don't like tails, and the pretty kitties are a little young looking. Which is fine, but I wanted my character to appear as someone around their late 20's to early 30's. If I ever choose to do an alt character, I will definitely go Au ra before Miqo'te.
