Would you rather have had Male Viera or Hrothgar?

It actually won't, and there's an even more in-depth poll about ShB anticipation regarding the missing genders. Even taking into concern the limited data from the Forum users (and reddit since that one was shared there as well), a decent sample size is enough to gauge interest. And it doesn't need to be a "majority" of the players, just "enough" to justify the expenses (in the very same live letter you're quoting, Yoshi even says:






You have interpreted Yoshi's words to mean a final "no" when it really is a non-commital non-answer.



Right before the part you bolded, even. It's not saying yes, but the door is not "shut" so we can still show our support.

You're welcome to show your support. But you're tilting at windmills until they solve the problems preventing them from implementing additional races.

Considering the problems are at a very deep level both forwards and backwards in time, considering how long these have been under development (all the way back to blufever for first sighting of Hrothgar) you're wasting your energy on a black hole of nothing.

This is not something you're going to see in Shadowbringers; the timelines cannot match up.

And all of this over freaking race glamour.
