Racial Imbalance Within Eorzea

[AnimaAnimus]

Gotetsu may no longer be in the picture in the current main storyline but his story and bonding with Yotsuyu is something I really enjoyed in stormblood even though the ending was sad. I do hope he would make some appearance in Shadowbringers.

Let's say it like it really is. Gosetsu and Yotsuyu were both the high points of this expansion, character wise. Bringing them together made them both better and taking them away from us was a low blow.

so basically it's either gay roebros or bust for you hmmm? that's real imbalance there *rolls eyes*

Othard really annoys me. It's supposed to have Roegadyn, ok...it has some but it's always 4-5 male Roegadyn 1 token Female Roegadyn, by miracle or by chance. In every situation where there are Roegadyn it's only 1 female Roegadyn because they felt obliged to add at least 1. It's like to them Roegadyn = male Roegadyn. It's a very biased mindset. I know Ala Ganha exists but that's like the most meaningless place in the game.

Poor Slafyrsyn - This Roe makes it to second in command of Limsa, helps you come up with a way to defeat Leviathan, was the most recent bearer of the Mistbeard persona, and even helps you to retake Ala Mhigo alongside Merwlyb. Yet here he lies forgotten. :P

Edit: After re-reading the original post and noting that it's more than just Roes, it does depend on area - we have a ton of important Au Ra (look at the entire Steppes thing between the various tribes, including the big competition where you personally determine who rules the Steppes!) and Elezen (Look towards Heavensward here, though I'll admit the majority of the cast on that part was male, but Ysayle was like the major companion).

COULDNT AGREE MORE!! I dont get that either! I mean if you can have beast tribes which consists of only the beasts then surely we can have some locations with racial specific characters.

I mean you dont go to Death Mountain in Zelda to meet Minish >_>

Wedge (or Biggs? I forget who is who)

Biggs is the big one.

Specifically when it comes to the story.

So let's see we have....1 Roe man, Gosetsu who had a role but now is "on a pilgrimage" which is essentially the nice way of saying "get lost noone likes you" Then we have Momma Limsa Roe lady thats 1 Fem Roe whom again had all this potential but was relegated to the sidelines just to look cute.

And pretty much everyone else is a human or a cat or a potate or a not elf cause apparently some humans just have ears so pointy they can be certified life sized hole punchers.

And of course we got Shadowbringers coming up which had 1 plot important Hrothgar in the trailer and barely any Viera.

Now I could be my usual self and say "Gahh where my Roe MEN I need my MEAT SQUARE ENIX" and while I still hold true to that, seriously we need more Male Roes in everything, I actually took a hard look and honestly, other races arent really paid that much attention to.

Usually its humans, lalas, miqs, and maybe an elf dude but thats about it. Rarely do we see any elf ladies or Au Ra or heck we dont even see Fem Roes all that much.

I mean theres Biggs from the Cid squad and while hes someone I wanna love and protect with my life he doesn't really add anything to the overall general plot as hes to busy prepping for Cid and Neros wedding in the Deltascape.

All joking aside, I'm honestly tired of seeing the basic races take over the plot. I mean for real their bringing the Stormblood girl back because heaven forbid a viera or a Hrothgar actually leas the plot for once.

Go home until you come up with better material.
