Lupin race is the beast like race thread with most likes.
Has 1/4 times the amount of likes than viera
SE prioritizes their implementation over viera
You can have your own opinion ofc but I must say that I feel like they really should have went with what the most apparent majority wanted and given us the viera race, not what we got, but ofc I am happy that players that wanted a beast like race got what they want, though I don't think many ppl like reskinned roegadyns anyways, it is for sure a niche they can fill with them
