    Lore/story design. There's your very valid excuse. You may not agree, but that's the wonderful thing about opinions.

    Personally I'm glad they held their ground on the lore this time rather than caving to complaints.

    Sounds like the same reasoning for the race locks in 1.x....

    And they unlocked them.

    For the male Miquote... kind of. People took the lore from Mithra (FF11) and applied it to Miquote, which is why there were no cat boys. But as I recall, there wasn't a strong piece of lore in FF14 suggesting that male Miquote weren't possible.

    Same thing with Roe... players applied Galka lore to Roe. But in both cases, Miquote and Roegadyn are not Mithra/Galka respectively. The primary reason they didn't have male Miquote and female Roegadyn was because 1.0 didn't have them (and they were working with assets from 1.0).

    Viera has a very clear lore that males don't leave the forest.
    We don't know the lore about Hrothgar, but they are not Ronzo from FF13, just an homage.

    Better brush up on your lore then cause male Viera was definitely confirmed officially by SE lore.
