Male Viera as a playable character! show your support

[SturmChurro]

Most of the people in here just want to bring their fetishes into a game where it doesn't belong. Then when you point it out, they want to get all preachy about it. The truth of the matter is, their real life fetishes do not belong in a game like Final Fantasy. They can go play Second Life or any adult game for that. Hell they can go play the Sims 4 for that. It doesn't belong in a game like this, I don't care what they say. Plus I very seriously doubt SE is gonna listen to the handful of them that want the male Viera to be turned into a clown race. At least I hope they don't listen.

To be fair, the flipside is the game already has that with a vast amount of men playing female characters specifically because they are at least somewhat attracted to them. I am somewhat part of that problem. I play females ONLY in this game, because I think the males in this game look either dumb, or too effeminate. For example, I think the male midlanders are too short and boyish, highlanders look like cavemen, roegdyans look like dollar store hulk action figures, miqo'te are cat dudes, and au ra has too much clipping - I like what they look like though.

However, I do NOT think I race should be designed on the specific fetishes of each group of people, which is what many people here seem to be calling for veiled or not. To be honest, I think some people go way too far with it in mmorpgs - this isn't exclusive to this game either. I remember people reading off people's bios in goldshire or whatever in WoW... really, really weird.

If I got what I wanted in a male it would be a somewhat muscular midlander (human), with a 27-30 y/o masculine "normal" looking face, western hairstyles so I don't look like an emo, 6'2. Cooler heavy armor options as well, but this game seems to lack that.
