Male Viera as a playable character! show your support

It's never good to gate-keep. It's never good to make less options for players to express themselves.

Genderlocking has never been favorable, likable, or enjoyable in an MMO.

The girls are good for prancing around in lingerie while it’s the men’s job to flex to some 80’s guitar riffs while wearing leather harnesses.

It's not sexism.

I mean I don't think anyone wants me to take it farther than that, so I'm just going to say this is the core of the disagreement, that will probably not be bridged.

The only sexism I can see is constantly brought up by the own community, prejudices and exaggerations.

Hello! Just wanted to post something here.
Hhhmmm kinda dissapointed to see "no male viera / female hrothgar" announced. I hope SE will add them at some point in the next expansion (not release date because they have a looot of work polishing the current versions but .. in a future patch maybe). So, reading some post of this thread I came up with two "versions". Personally I like the first one (A), but I don't dislike the other one either. Someone posted the "Male Omega image" and , yep I can imagine them being like that. I'm temped to do another one of the female hrothgar too. Sooo... yep, I would like to see them in-game but, no rush.

My god you did such a fantastic job with this it makes me want to cry. SE why can't you do this?! I'm partial to (A) myself but it's not like it would be the end of the world for me if we got something like (B). I'd be happy with either or.

Viera needs the male variation please, they should be a bit shorter than females and with cute faces, it really has to happen.

I'm all for male viera. But I'd like them to look like actual adult men and not children. Maybe something between AuRa and Elezen.

Hello, totally agree with option A it seems closer to the lore since in the lore description state that only the strongest of them survive to adapt an exiled forest life when they reach adulthood.

I'm all for tall, strong bunny men, so option A on that picture would certainly be something I can get behind. It also has a hairstyle closer to the more elaborate ones the females get and in that regard male and female should definitely be the same imo. Would be neat if there are also more youthful face options as for the other races as long as it's made clear that that's a younger appearance and that not all male viera are short and boyish since that kinda clashes the female viera being as "adult" as they are. Playing younger characters isn't creepy, but having a race where the women are tall, busty women in lingerie and the men look like they're 15-yr old boys would be... ehhhh.

Why are they based off Fran?

[zeylos]

I think that they will end up looking like A with B height
