Yoshi-P considering feedback on the new races

[LaylaTsarra]

No lore would even have to be changed for male Viera given :
1. a single male leaving the forest does not break the lore. (other PCs are ignored canonically)
2. they already broke the lore so many other times without changing it, like for Duskwights and Keepers. They don't need to change the lore, they need to stop hiding behind it.

i think they want to remain true to FFXII and I really don't know how that IP would feel with XIV making changes like adding males to their game when XII hasn't. I'm not opposed to having the genders added. Perhaps they will but it does appear to be quite expensive and requires quite a bit of development time.

Personally I'm not unhappy with the choices made for this xpac. Male and Female for both would have been too good to be true I suppose.
