Male Viera as a playable character! show your support

Not because of that. I read your post in another thread, and it seems you hold the opinion you do only out of spite. No point in having a discussion with you. If you have an actual reason, you're welcome to share why you don't want male viera added into the game. Although, I'm sure after reading your post, people will believe you're only saying the things you do out of spite, and not for any other reason.

Lore has more meaning than silly fan service.

See? It wasn't so hard giving an actual reason. Now you can have a discussion with other people as to why they may or may not disagree with that statement like a normal person.

*Laughs at you as I drive my regalia to rathalos EX to meet up with the female ronso from FFX who's reading about beastmen being shunned from entering ul'dah and gridannia while sidurgu tells me about ishardians killing his tribe of au ra on site but leaving him alive and not batting an eyelash at you when you walk in as an au ra*

I still question the validity of the 'Lore' keeping Viera males forever in the forest. Especially since ffxiv has it own lore separate from 12 and the other Ivalice games.

What's the lore behind them never leaving? What compels them from puberty to old age to never even think about leaving? It's more unbelievable that not a single Male in all of history from birth to death has never deviated from the cultural norm.

Are they indoctrinated in some nefarious scheme? Do they hunt down their own if the ever try to escape? Is it a spell or some magic that binds them? Do they all just think alike and aren't individuals at all?

To me a lot of the reasons that would keep them all, every single last Male without deviation, without question would feel somehow insidious. If they aren't individual's at all but more feral beings who only act on instinct and nature, then that's the whole men are beasts woman are breasts dichotomy and that's really gross. (And you can't say it wouldn't because the Viera reveal video was nearly soft core in its sexy bunnies ladies running around in their lingerie giggling.)

Where is their freewill? If they don't have freewill then who or what is taking it? Isn't generally seen as bad to strip people of their freewill? Why do they not have the freewill to choose?
Who is taking their freewill in this? Isn't it bad to take someone's choice away?

Are male Viera okay?

Do they need rescue?

Every member of a populace conforming exactly to their culture cus reasons is highly unbelievable. And remember, as I said, ffxiv has it's own lore separate from 12 and The other Ivalice titles and so things ARE different!

Theres also the fact that the WoL is the exception to the rule, to all the rules. From being the only non Padjal White mage, to killing gods left and right easily. Being the only way to save the world from Alexander to defeating all of Omegas tests and Omega themselves. The WoL is the ultimate exception!
