Gender locked race?

Assuming most have, but if not I would like the first post in this thread http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...w-your-support and maybe add your posts to that one. I imagine that thread would have more of an impact if everyone who wanted male Viera consolidated in one spot.

Here's female Hrothgar: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...our-support%21

I find it interesting there are so many votes for the female hrothgar, curious how many are voting because they're interested vs just support for others (for male Viera as well).

Well I can only speak about myself, but I only play females yet I still supported the male viera because I want it to be equal for both races. I do believe that others probably did the same. But of course there could also be way more people wanting beastial races than we thought there would be.

Yeah you nailed exactly what I was silently thinking. The support I expected but nearly to the level of male viera is interesting lol, obviously there are more than one reasons why it could be as it is.

It'll probably get a bit farther apart as we go on in time but I am curious how far apart it'll be.

I mean, we KNOW what female Ronso look like, and they look AMAZING.

I voted in both. I want male Viera and voted Hrothgar out of principle. If we get jacks but no lionesses that'd be quite an unfair situation. (Also I kinda wish they called them bucks since that's the actual name of male rabbits. But whatevz. I still love the lore they wrote around them, for the most part.)

This. And time is of the essence. The fact of the matter is, Square has already decided not to introduce male Viera and female Hrothgar. The longer Square waits, the harder it will be for them to reverse that decision due to increasing developmental complexity. So the best tactic for getting both genders is for everyone to keep the volume high.

Game studios work in rhythms. They probably still have a lot of money and manpower right now because they're still finishing content for Shadowbringers. But once that's done, the principal development group will downscale into a skeleton crew. If people wait until 6.0, it will never happen because there will be dozens, probably hundreds more wearables made between now and then. Square's excuse against adding them will continue to grow.

Completed races have to be placed in Square's urgent-important quadrant, so it becomes a certainty. Otherwise, it won't happen.
