Male Viera as a playable character! show your support

Lala's don't count - that one there is pure fantasy and aesthetic. No amount of science can explain that.

Omega M was good, yes, he certainly wasn't soft looking to me. That dude had biceps. Very clear biceps and a defined chest.

If lalafells don't count, then that same reasoning should be applied to other races. It's just for aesthetics. Real world biology doesn't have to apply.

and yeah, I'm not saying they shouldn't have biceps, but it would be nice if it was a little smaller imo
Omega M is like the ideal male viera body for me. He's still toned and has muscle, but he's slimmer and elegant looking.

Aye, of course - it's more of a pet peeve of mine rather than 'Why is this not correct, I'm not playing this!'
Maybe my imagination just can't paint imagery where they would look soft - as if they've never gone through such hardships at all. Not with the lore that they were given, that's such a harsh lifestyle. And of course, the argument of if Lala's don't count - so neither should Viera, does stand because that's just fantasy. I just frown when it's used, I personally think it's lazy when there isn't an in-depth explanation on why they ended up looking like they do.

Hm, but yeah - there would be no complaints from me if they used Omega M's models for the males. It's elegant, lean and also defined enough for me to accept it with the current lore they have. Not like the devs give a hoot if I accept it or not lol, it's just my personal preference. Lean and muscular/defined is a big <3

tldr; pet peeve when lore/history doesn't match with the current races appearances.
