To be quite honest, I can speak for myself, and dont need folks to put words in my mouth. I could care less if they look like Fran but Im being realistic here. Chances are we only got Viera at all and so quickly because SE already has the assets for them from XII. Its not much more of a stretch to use those assets to create or tweak models for XIV. Atleast that would be my assumption. As for Au'Ra, it was probably in the works from the beginning of 2.0 since before the game's relaunch they had done a survey asking what races folks would like to see and a dragon race (Au'Ra) was pretty popular among the poll. It just happened to be the one they went with first. Viera was actually at the top of the poll back then too and with the April fool's bangaa joke being such a cruel disappointment for many fans, I can see why they chose to get to work on it.
But in truth, NO ONE, not I or any other player will truly know what they look like until they either leak or are officially shown off. My opinion is nothing more than speculation as is yours, or anyone else's.
