Male Viera as a playable character! show your support

Overall, they wouldn't look good though.

I agree! Those elves are super feminine and not quite a fit for how they're portrayed in this game.

I really don't like tera's character creation in general, tbh. All of the races there look bad in some way (don't even get me started on elin). That being said, I think if you were to cross their high elves with castanics, it'd be a male viera that most people could get along with and get a preferred vibe with depending on face (+feature) options.

I kinda like the castanics, though that's how I think Au Ras should've been /shrug

Some of the Light Armor options and hairstyles may have given Tera's male High Elves a somewhat 'feminine' appearance (but then again, everyone was kinda half-naked in that game), but overall they were a pretty good take on High Elves I think. Especially in a bit heavier armor like Elleon wore, although I think he had a custom model.

I'd be happy if they made them somewhere between male Elezen and male Highlanders or Au ra. With their higher texture models, the muscularity would shine through better than it currently does on Elezen.

I think they ought to find a way to make muscle tone sliders work on other races. These kind of limitations are rather unfortunate in a game in a competitive market...

I've tried the other popular MMORPGs right now. ESO, WoW, Guild Wars 2, SWTOR.. this game, in my opinion, is still the best option on the market, currently. Don't even get me started on Korean mmorpgs, they are literally just cash shops disguised as games.

I tend to agree that it's the best of its type when it comes to MMOs currently available - although bear in mind those games still have high enough playerbases themselves to remain afloat in the market, including people who tried this game and don't like it. However, it is not just competing for consumer money and time against other MMOs, but against other games, and even other uses for that money. It's a bad idea to grow complacent in such an environment. They seem to be re-investing in the game, but I'll reserve judgement until 6.0 to see how much that can accomplish.

One thing to note is that Dissidia NT was recently discontinued -it'll still be around, though in maintenance mode and with no new updates. I'm hoping that it's a sign that Square Enix intend to put more focus on their meatier projects that have guaranteed success; translating to more funding and manpower directed at FFXIV.

And it's a damn shame for the Dissidia series because it was a good concept and had a good story overall. NT just screwed it all up with forced 3v3 in all content and focus on clunky always online PvP with PSN's paper servers slowing the match down to a crawl and not knowing if your attack actually hit or not. It's incredible how the MOBILE version ends up being the better game with a party-based RPG-styled gameplay and an actual campaign mode.

*huff huff*

But yeah, SE's made some questionable gambles with games before, like XV's incredibly troubled development and eventual cancelled DLCs, time to show XIV some love.

i mean i thought it was pretty obvious all of the money was being funneled out to help soften ff7r's protracted dev cycle

and i recall something just like this happening to help fund ff15's dlcs
