    will we get Garleans Race?

    I know we just got bunny women and Lion men but ive been wondering this for 2 expacs now why didnt they add Garleans as a race it would be a human just with the third eye? is it maybe because they cant use magic in the traditional way since they cant channel or manipulate aether?

    It’s not only for exactly the reasons you mentioned, but also the fact they’ve been a main antagonist for nearly 10 years.

    Garleans can’t cast magic. So that means none of the jobs are viable. Zero, zilch, zip. Can’t be a white mage.... or any mage for that matter. Even gunbreaker uses aether imbued ammo. It’s known that ryne has to imbue thancreds ammo for him. So no we won’t have them as a race for that one reason.... magic

    Look at the S**t storm that not having male veira caused. Imagine locking someone out of playing a job because they wanted to add playable garleans.... and back to my previous point, garleans can’t cast magic and every single class in the game has magic. Bards have their songs, ninja has its mudra.

    Obviously, this is a prime opportunity to focus on the most important job in the game: FSH. They may not be able to cast a spell, but they can certainly cast a line.

    Jokes aside, it's most certainly not going to happen in a game where being able to play every class is such a huge draw for a not insignificant number of players. That and Viera/Hrothgar is supposedly the last race we'll be getting.

    I'm not so sure about that. There was once a time when one single FSH in La Noscea cast their line so hard the entire server crumbled around them and an emergency maintenance had to be called. If that isn't magic I don't know what is.

    In the story, any Garleans that's in Eorzea that's not concealing their third eye gets called out on it immediately. It would break the MSQ even more if everyone acted nonchalantly when talking to an Imperial and didn't mention the elephant in the room. SWTOR tried this with race swapping the factions and it kind of broke the story in places because the voice lines clearly weren't designed for that.

    kinda makes me wonder why lucia was chosen to be a spy..lol. But in any case a playable garlean race would be impossible, and kinda pointless? On that note about magic didn't the devs say that there are some rare instances of garleans being able to use some magic? I know i've seen lucia cast cure at least.
