Male Viera as a playable character! show your support

[TwiibieTwuu]

If they add Male Vierra either as a playable race or a unique NPC I hope they're manlets. Smaller than the females. (Like rabbits irl) would be unique and different from all the tall boy, short girl races.

I don't think the difference should be like Au Ra. But female Vierra on max size should be taller than the male on the max size.

And the same for minimum height smallest bun girl still taller than the smallest bun man.

I wouldnt mind that if the difference isnt too high, I think it would also make sense considering what theyre based on. Tbh, this is the least important aspect for me, I just want my male viera qwq

Still wouldn't be for it, although I'd be open to their height slider being wide like the Roegadyn female one and extending below min height Viera females and a bit above max height ones.

The rabbit thing is a bit of a red herring, anyway... they're not the same species in the end, and that size difference is not uniform across subspecies, nor is it because the females are longer, but to accommodate childbirth from my understanding. Either way, it's not something I'd see as necessary to make provide them with a leporine inspiration.

Yeah, that'd be the best compromise.

Agreed. They're also not particularly rabbit like to begin with - only in terms of their ears and noses. Even then, such elements were toned down when compared to the FF12 Viera.

You know, i see have seen alot of derision on the fact many races in FFXIV have only the most minuscule of non human features. I for one rather enjoy this aspect. Subtlety should not be condemned so quickly in my book, indeed it was this hallmark that made my enjoyment of the game all the richer.

While a pipe dream due to the obvious necessary changes/ fixes needed in regards to expanded character creation options, missing genders, face/hair locks, ect... I would have loved the addition of a half Hyur/ Elezen player character race. Basically a Hyur with nothing more than Elezen ears and animations. Allowing for Elezen players to keep their beloved characters as is, and others to to make characters they felt had only the most subtle of features changes that brought them in line to what many other series/ip use when depicting elves.

Alas, even though we have a precedent in game, and a wonderful one at that, i doubt with all the extra work the dev team has made for themselves, it would ever come to fruition.

To be clear: I am only advocating this hybrid race due to the fact it has basis established in game. This is not a request for Lala/ Roe, Mi'qote/ Aura, Viera/Hyur, ect, ect...

i think the difference between the males and females will be like the differences between rabbits and hares

I'd be ok with this.
