Male Viera as a playable character! show your support

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.

Hope they dont add the male vieras. Knowing SE they will look like cute Au Ras.

And no, thanks.

Actually, based off of interviews and comments from Yoshi P and Matsuno, it's likely male viera will look:

-Similar to elezen, but with better proportions
-Have a face similar to miqo'te
-Slim, elegant, and handsome
-Body type similar to Toru Rikiishi before his fight with Joe (from Ashita no Joe). In other words, a slim but toned light weight boxer

Here's a clip from the live-action movie as well - which is pretty dang close to the manga. Linkage. Just good for those who want to look at a real-life example.

Chuckle, since they're hares - I wonder if the males like to box one another...

LOL, but that doesn't matter - if you want a thread to die, like the worst thing you can do is post in the thread bringing up the sad fact it's not dead yet because then this very scenario plays out.
