    Thing is Quina's race is gendered it is just Quina that is not gendered, Now if they added a race that wasn't gendered would they make a single universal model with more customizing options or would they make a female looking one and a male looking one but they still are genderless with less customizing options, the latter would probably be more accepted as people could tailor more to their specific desires more easily.

    I would be fine with a genderless race so long as i can make it look like a male

    Q: Will there be any maintenance fees or other costs for housing, besides the cost of the land and house?
    A: In older MMOs, such as Ultima Online, there was a house maintenance fee you had to pay weekly, but in FFXIV: ARR we decided against this system. Similarly, these older MMOs also had a system where your house would break down if you didn’t log in after a while in order to have you continue your subscription, but this is a thing of the past and we won't have any system like that.

    ^ shows the exact problem you would have from the NA community.

    Additionally the programming challenges are likely a little much, when that development effort of finding gender-neutral terms in all languages and coding them into every single quest in the game, can be put to better use.

    As long as it's truly genderless and not a cop out like the "technically genderless but really an excuse to make a race of blue skinned space babes" Asari from Mass Effect.

    As for the he/she problem in dialogues, you could just lore it so that while they are technically genderless and androgynous they could still take masculine/feminine identities or pronouns for the benefit of other races. Like the way Chinese people sometimes take English names when they travel/communicate overseas.

    Sounds like that genderless race better be so goddamn interesting and aesthetically pleasing that no one bats an eye over how its genderless.

    Good luck with that.

If you're capable of healing DRK back in ShB (or any tanks), then you'll heal EW DRK just fine.

    I mean aesthetically wise the only MALES we have are au ra and roe 2s tribes.

    The other races are pretty much extremely femine with both genders...
    Yet i still see them around lol

    If that was meant to me, I'm actually from the EU and play on the EU datacenter.

    its confirmed quina is a male


    Though some localizations treat Quina as a female, the game mechanics treat him/her more as a male. Quina is affected by the Lamia's "Entice" ability, like all male characters.

    But Quina can also equip several female only add-ons, so it seems the game treats Quina as both rather than one or the other. Also the headpiece Lamia's Tiara is female only but Quina can equip it, so the Entice ability kinda contradicts it. Also some localisations/languages also struggle to define male or female in wording so it's not always obvious.
