Gender locked race?

[cicatriz313]

Just because of leaks and bugs im not obligated to trust these. And everyone tried to stay positive on this subject, because we knew everyone who shows up in this thread is just excited for seeing them.
And yes lore stated more than enough that they do not exist to us, but that lore has been contradicting itself so many times.. so it doesnt matter where its stating. Unless its an official statement things will be always unclear.
And whats happening right now?
People ragequit and make a big tantrum. Like always. Eureka release, Bluemage being announced, but it will settle down and people that deeply care for it will still fight for a change. A change like having Male Miqo/Female Roe/Highlander, same sex eternal bond and Viera (even if female for now)

I mean leaks that are 95% accurate and you don't believe them, fine. That's up to you. But not believing actual game files stating that a second race is coming and knowing how the dev team is to assume we will get only one pair is on you. Yoshi didn't say anything because he was saving Hrothgar for Tokyo, simple. You guys built your own hype up and now you're crashing and it's your own fault. Definitely fight for a change, but this amount of disappointment could have been negated. You were not "lied to", I've seen that thrown around a lot and it's ridiculous.

I always tell people, its never good to ride that hype train, because when it crashes you get screwed. I am all for getting excited about new content, but I keep my expectations in check as I do. That way when something is different then I thought it would be (like Dancer being a DPS) then I dont get upset.

I'm disappointed by the gender lock but not overly surprised given how accurate the leaks were.

I hope that the people that were interested in female Viera and male Hrothgar are happy with the designs and I hope that SE considers adding male Viera and female Hrothgar in the future.
