Male Viera as a playable character! show your support

[Nestama]

In my opinion at least, if hey for some reason decided to go for hrotgar over viera, then they should have done full hrotgar. Either that or just like how you said increased their manpower to get 2 full races

Full Hrothgar probably would have been the best idea, in my opinion. Having looked at Viera in the benchmark, I still don't see the appeal of them. They're just tall women with rabbit ears and they make me wish we got female Hrothgar instead...

But that's just my opinion. We're getting Viera even though I still hate them and I'm hoping one day SE will make the opposite genders playable (and not make female Hrothgars Miqo'te 2.0. Do what GW2 did with the Charr, SE!).

I guess my main wish now is extended customisation options for the older races and graphics upgrades. Whilst I’d like to see male Viera and female Hrothgar, my desire is for those things to take priority... they may even ease their addition later down the line, if it enables them to scale the assets more easily.

As of today; show your Viera = 53 pages. Show your Hrothgar 19 pages. Something tells me they should have just made Viera both genders and forget about the second cat race.

They should have made full Hrothgar.
What exists in female Viera that do not already exist in all the other humaniod female race counterparts besides the drag and drop rabbit ears ? Don't get me wrong, I want mViera and will forever be for them but the show your Viera thread has me unimpressed. They look humans with drag and drop rabbit ears that even looking like it could just be a headband accessory. They also look more like supermodels rather than a race that lives how they live and might be a bit rough or even somewhat wild looking.

Matter of fact, they could have as others said revamped the entire creation system and made a larger percent of people more content.

Al though some are now saying “hrothgar should of been added instead” I still disagree and I like how the females look, they don’t exactly look like 12’s but I still enjoy them and still want male viera, I found a picture on Twitter that’s pretty cool (I do wish for a tall and more dominant looking face) but I don’t mind if this is an option. Same for the fur patch it can hopefully be an option.

I wish people would stop saying stuff like this. Hrothgar have proven to be quite popular. Go look at any of the 'Show Your <Insert Race Here>' threads and you'll see that most of the posts are of female characters. Yet that doesn't mean that male characters aren't popular - because they are. There's simply an unfortunate trend for female characters to be posted and praised more than male characters.

Theodric, I'll not tell you again to take your logic and apply it somewhere else.

I really get exhausted of the 'humans with x ears' response. Viera have distinct noses, facial shapes, ears that are properly rooted better than some Miqo'te hairstyles, a body type we don't have in-game yet, aloof animation personality that suits the rabbit theme quite well, and a whole slew of other things. As much as I'd love an updated character creator across the board, pretending Viera aren't filling a new niche when they clearly are isn't going to get us anywhere closer.

Female Viera primarily live deep in the woods in a civilized matriarchal society, far away from any sort of rugged life like the men lead. Their appearance is entirely appropriate.

If you get exhausted of it because it's said so often, then most likely there must be a point to it. The fact stands that they are yet another humanoid race when in fact as we all know the true intended race was Hrothgar.

Niche ? Sure, call it what you want. But it'll forever be a race done on the pure basis of fan service.

Also, I think you confuse a rough/wild look with rugged. One can look wild/otherwordly compared to the humanoids in game. A part from the ears, one would easily see just a another form of human.
