Viera didn't blow up as big as we all thought.

To make it easier to look at the data, I made some tables.



Out of the female races, Roegadyn and Elezen were hit the hardest, both losing 10% of their population. Au Ra also lost a lot at 8%, but they still vastly outnumber both Roegadyn and Elezen. Lalafell only lost 2%, which doesn't surprise me too much. One of the biggest reasons why people play Lalafell is because they're tiny, which is something Viera doesn't offer. It should come to no surprise that the top 3 are the "waifu" races. I'm sure it's going to stay this way until the game is finally shut down.



Most of the male races actually saw an increase in their population. Except for Roegadyn, which was hit hard, losing 10% of its population.

Roegadyn are exceptionally rare now. Think of it like this. There are more Hrothgar out there (23,307) than there are male and female Roegadyn combined (22,682). The people who were worried and expressed concerns about the Roegadyn population being thinned out by Hrothgar and Viera were absolutely right.

Ouch. I thought Viera would take a lot from Roes and Elezen, but still sad to see the numbers.

Interesting to see that Au Ra was hit a lot harder than Miqo'te.

Interesting! I guess the male increase it because of new people?

But yeah ... I HAVE noticed I see way more Hrothgar than Roebros.

Oddly enough, a lot of Elezen females made the switch because of just that. Viera are bunny eared Elezen with better proportions. For people who wanted a tall, elegant race, they now have that.

Correction, they now have 2 options for that. Female elezen are still an option even if there's a better looking black coded version of that out now.

Tis exactly why I didn't go Viera. I was a Femroe, I played Femroe for years and there's a reason I never played Fem Elezen. Viera emotes and animations being reserved and "well made low effort" AF doesn't do it for me.

I'm amazed that Hrothgar is really close to Elezen numbers, despite having limited hairstyles. I guess this proves Yoshi P's point about people wanting a beastial race in the game. I expected Viera to suprass Au ra and Miqot'es, though.

Imagine how high their numbers would be if people got free Fantasia phials.
