Gender locked race?

[Nestama]

Male Viera released then/unlockable in later patches? I keep paying my subscription and preorder Shadowbringers.

No Male Viera at all? Kiss me goodbye.

Uh-huh, sure. I hate Au Ra (more so because of the concept art where they looked way more interesting) and Viera (been against them for longer than Au Ra), yet here I am. Still playing this game. I've probably made threats of unsubbing if I didn't get what I wanted, but clearly that was a lie (I've learned to deal with the fact that if I want to play as something that isn't a human, I'll have to wait for SE to release beastmen/monster glamours that aren't joke glamours).

Only time I ever stopped subbing to this game was when I got bored.

Eh, I don't think it's fair to bring up your own anecdote in an attempt to minimize his own feelings/opinions about this. I'm on the same boat that I would be upset if SE decides to not give us male Viera and go the gender-lock route, but I don't exactly agree with the whole "pitchforks and rage" sentiment. He's entirely in his right to unsub if he wants to.
