He prob meant that they just recently got the models to a point were they were presentable. A ton of work goes into making a race so them only being able to show so much only shows that they were and are still working on it.

So even if they decided to start working on the genders after 5.0 releases (I'm sure they wont, they prob said they'd look at feed back as a stall cause they know that people will chill tf out with time and something new to talk about. Plus the JPN side doesn't care nearly as much so ... yeah, I call it how I see it.) it's gonna take a full expansion to release. And if they don't plan to make em they prob wont ever say "we're not making them".

Which is a shame for Hrothgar. I really do think the female Hrothgar would have looked like a Pantera mixed with Captain Amelia. Sleek, Regal, Viera height and maybe based on more feminine animals like mountain lions, Cheetah and Foxes. Mainly cause in their lore they seem to hold much more social status than males and the lore questions if they would be large and beefy like the males. Having a noble like woman would play into these anime girl tropes they like to ht on with the females.
