A moment of silenece

I've noticed this as well. Like there's no real reason to be so aggressive about other people race changing. So many people are like "oh yeah when the hype dies down you'll all be back" like chill let people try new things and see what they like. They get way too defensive about it.

You should know by now that this great community love to tell others what to do or how the content must be played... or else!

That's true. If you're not a mentor female miqo'te red mage in a maid's outfit jumping back and forth while waiting for someone to exit a cutscene so you can run forward and pull the boss early and die in two hits, you're doing it wrong!

To be fair that has more to do with actual trends and anecdotal statistics than hate. It's just a rule of thumb in mmos that new races come and go, but usually a large portion of people who switch, will be back on their original race in a few weeks / months after launch. And its usually not due to being agressive, but to be the guy who "told ya".

I can't wait to see a whole forest of dark-skinned Rava ladies all over the place. Ah yes. Nerds can't stop the flood of Viera. Throw back the gates.

Yes, I also look forward to seeing more dark-skinned characters. It's too bright in here sometimes.

Don't worry. 1-2 days after early acces there'll be close to no female viera,you'll see one like idk, every 15 minutes? like female elezen (and fem elezen will go extinct tho) and male hrotgar will have taken over roegadyn, leaving roegadyn with 100 or so players, and you'll see one maybe ocne every 5 minutes

As someone who so loudly champions male viera I'm kinda surprised you think fem viera will become that rare. Also idk where you hang out but I see fem elezen plenty when I'm not running around the wilds and am in a city

I certainly welcome more racial diversity, but I also don’t found the comment “oh yeah when the hype dies down you'll all be back” defensive...hum...rather interesting I would say. Just look at how many thread about Viera before it was announced and how many thread about Viera not being the Viera they want after it was announced. There are certain hype in it, and to be honest I am always on team hrothgar. I personally don’t hate Viera, but I think I just don’t want to see all the effort dev put in go waste.
So I guess “the hype die down” comment sound more disappointing and sarcastic and yet probably true than defensive to me

I'm glad I am drop dead gorgeous.

I am glad for you too.

Can give you the perspective of a not gorgeous woman and it is bad cause the chances of attracting criminal clowns that practice the crime of moral harassment based on a third party aesthetics is huge, along with other crimes.

I've been perfectly fine with the appearances of my characters up until now. I will be changing my main from a catboy to a lion man.
