Gender locked race?

[cicatriz313]

Well it looks like they saved resources by not making another open world traveling feature like swimming or flying, and were so far ahead in developing new jobs that Blue Mage was released early. They've had more than enough time to make not only a full Viera race but also a full race of whatever Hrothgar turns out to be. I'd rather sacrifice that beast race than allow them to get away with gender locking one of the most requested races seen 2.0 though. If you want to be a beast so much we literally already have male Miqote and Hellsguard Roegadyn which both can easily look like any animal you want. As for Viera we have no way of replicating neither their unique ears nor their feet, which tbh would be more "diverse" than adding another cat to the game.

There are literally bunny ears for men that were asked for for YEARS. What are you even talking about anymore lol. No race in game can be made to look like a beast. Any elf with the bunny ears can be made to look like a bunny boy.

Hellsguard Roegadyn + Horns + Long Hairstyle = Pantera you're welcome now let's get back to what the majority of people actually want:

Literally just humanoid types with ears. Cool.

Party pooooperrr

I know that folks have their different opinions and all that, but I honestly will never understand when folks come into a thread that's obviously going to be filled to the brim with fans wanting something only to just you know, crap on it? Sounds like a recipe for salt for the sake of just being 'that dude'.

Mm. I'm hoping we get something a little more unique this time around.

:O like what?


Honestly, regarding male Viera, I'm hoping there is more too them than the ears and the feet. I'm hoping to have a little bit of fur or something? I liked the fur on their chests that was decorating the collar bone. It won't be insane, but it'd be something. I was actually hoping that the males would be more 'Jackalope' like, and would have small antlers.

Anything along those lines would be wonderful. They're meant to be fierce and reclusive protectors of the forest after all - so it makes sense for them to look at least somewhat intimidating.

I'd already screenshotted this and was going to fish up the "Show Your Viera" joke thread for it, but seeing as you left it wide open....



You're welcome. :P



But seriously, as much as I'd like to see those concept-art male Viera implemented in the game, I do think they'd risk ending up quite close to "Au Ra with bunny ears". Horns of any sort would probably be a bad move in this case, even if they might look good on a totally independent rabbit-based race for another story.


Also, apologies for doing that annoying "edit to quote the post below" thing, but....

the bunny ears we currently have are a tiara that clashes with the whole "forest warrior" look.

It's rather frustrating. I wish they'd set it to use /visor to turn off the crown.
