Male Viera as a playable character! show your support

i posted this on another thread, but i think it fits here better
In my opinion viera males should look tall, beautiful and elegant just as a good as their counterpart(female viera). I just can't wrap my mind around imagining a little fella (almost childlike as some wish) mating with a much bigger mature looking female.

These are awesome fanmade artwork which i really appreciate:
(Maybe add some of these in the op to make it nonbiased, since it's actually also a very popular design, just seeing all the fanmade artwork on printerest and social media makes it clear)

From what little we see of the body shape, that almost appears like a male Miqote but without the terrible body posture.

I do think faces can and should vary. In this case, yes we cant see the body type - but for me, faces matter as well. We only get a handful of preset faces. And most of them do not appeal to me (even the Miqo'te race, I tend to use mostly 1 of 4).

Why though? We already have highlanders. There's literally no slender male options in the game. The other picture we added seemed like a good middle ground between what the most people wanted. If we're just going to add every variation that people ask for to the OP I'd rather just the official art be left up. If we make it look like we don't know what we want they can use that as an excuse to keep viera genderlocked.

The way he added it in is fine. Not all of us want "slender males" out of Viera, and it's untrue that there's no slender male options in the game, when midlanders, miqo'te and elezen can be designed that way. It may not be as slender as some people would like, but that's a different thing. SE are already aware that there's a variety of artistic styles that could be used to inspire Viera and his OP is pretty clear on what the consensus has been. I don't think it hurts to say "here's some things we like", since they'll just go with whatever version of Viera they feel is best liked by the race's creator, anyway. I suspect if they feel the need to fine-tune the feedback they're getting, they'll put forward some art of their own with that end in mind.

I love that one.

Now that’s a bun ready to storm Castlevania!

I think they should add both genders for both races, they can easily just explain why you can be male Viera and female Hrothgar's with the alternate dimension we're going to in the expansion. The societies are obviously quite a bit different in many ways, so the rules for these races don't have to be the same as they are in Eorzea. So male Viera and Female Hrothgar can come from the new world.

Another good pic of what I would like in Male Viera! Love this one!

I want the males to be tall mature and elegant to match the females!

An athletic slim build more V shaped then Elezen and with out the birthin hips of Au-Ra males.

hmm at this time we gender locket race hmm I found this amusing at this time in are culture.

first off female of Ronus are in ffx

I argee with the male Veira

yet I find amusing that there is 200 forum thread when in rl we tried figure what gender is once more. I agree that both should equality resented yet I understand SE view. reality and fantasy linked first off are they male rabbit and female rabbit so how can a race create more of themselves. I agree that there should be Male Viera and Female Viera, aswell male and female Ronso as their called ffx.

male Ronso could be bigger then female Ronso

Here are some other types of male viera. However, I want to mention that many of us think that omega m body type for male viera is a good compromise for the people who want a bigger body type, and for those who want smaller a body type. Omega m is a good in between, and will leave most people who want male viera satisfied.

With this and putting the image in a spoiler tag, you're trhowing away all the neutrality, by this point every image that is not an official concept art and personal opinions should be put inside an spoiler tag, and if you include your opinon make sure to include that of the others, or the OP would look somewhat manupulative.

This can only lead to a lot of unnecesary threads...

If the devs see all that art they'll just feel overwhelmed and get the impression people will be unhappy no matter what they put out. The OP's become too bloated and its distracting from all the support the thread is getting. It should just be kept simple. Someone was complaining about the OP being biased and just leaving the official art up would be the most neutral way of presenting our message.
