Male Viera as a playable character! show your support

[Theodric]

I already said I'm no longer going to edit the OP. Drop it already.

I believe doing so will encourage more people to support to the Viera male cause, so I will continue to advocate as much. You're free to ignore the suggestion, though I'll confess to being a little confused as to why when Yoshi-P has already stated that child-like Viera are thankfully not going to be a thing.

So less "it's going to be this way" and more "we thought about it and floated these ideas"

If they ever implement them you I'd bet this will be revisited and rehashed.

Since we know what female viera look like, we can take a guess on how the males would look like. It's not 100% accurate, but it's just an educated guess based off a nearly finished model. You can argue that there could be sexual dimorphism just like with the au ra, but for the most part, the other races don't have this extreme difference between males and females. Just going off what Yoshida has said in interviews, and what the female viera model looks like, I'm going to guess males will share similarities. Perhaps they will use an elezen base and look slender, handsome, and elegant like Yoshida had mentioned. If male viera ever get implemented into the game, I think the description that was given by Yoshida is most likely the way male viera will look, however, this is all just speculation.

I'm not changing it because too many people keep requesting changes to the OP. I'm not doing it anymore. Stop asking.

How odd. I don't recall seeing many requests for that throughout this thread. A few, yes, though not a huge amount and I've been following this thread from the very start as my contributions so far will no doubt attest.

It was mostly in the beginning, and now just sprinkled throughout this thread. I still get requests like yours. Not happening. Stop. Asking.

If someone does not add their support in this thread for male viera because of one official (!) artwork on what Viera children would look like then I would really question their resolve a bit. Because if that is the case the OP would need to take out anything that is not official which then again would go against what others would like.

In the end a OP is just a hint at something and not the 100% truth and if someone wants another kind of body type then they can put it in their post.

[Senn]

...

Yeah, and it's not as if only the OP is being looked at for feedback. Staff look through the thread.

[Theodric]

To each their own. We will simply have to agree to disagree on some of those particular points.

That the lead developer had to make a statement on it in the first place highlights just how shocking the situation happened to be.

I wanted the cute ones because Im more used to the feol type veiras and like cute things, but creeps are why we cant have anything nice ever so Im fine without adding them.

It’s official art, just of a body type they will never add. There was never any implication adult Viera would look that way, anyway.
