Male Viera as a playable character! show your support

Hopefully they'd have the option for a long, straight nose. I can't say I care much for the upturned nose aesthetic when it comes to men.

It's all about them options! I'd like the classic long, straight nose as well as some mildly convex options - both of which are traits that factor into the typically attractive male. I don't mind the upturned nose as an option but if it's the only thing, that'd suck.

I'm pretty sure the upturned noses and overbites is just an art style thing for Final Fantasy characters in general. Hyurs already have similar features and people and real life do have up turned noses and overbites.

It's more pronounced in the Viera and purposefully so. The nose and the highlights on the nose draw attention to it. It's a subtle but noticeable difference.

The women already have options for straighter, more conventionally attractive "human" noses. I see no reason the men couldn't too!

Just copy what you already see in female Viera, many options, for those who like wide noses better or straighter better. The problem this thread gets into is people continue to talk appearance so it starts getting into deeply personally held beliefs. Just focus on the support of the race, leave the look to Matsuno.

preach! they did a good job with the females, i‘m sure they‘ll do the same for the males (if they ever will be implemented)

I'm not denying that vieras have special noses but upturned isn't a unique thing for them. If anything they have rounder nose tips than most of the characters. That highlight on their nose is unique to them compared to the rest of the characters in the game, but I'm not denying that either. I'm merely stating that having your nose upturned is a natural and also a stylistic choice in many media that transcends just Final Fantasy. Most characters in FF12 had upturned noses while in the newer games it is far less prominent like in Final Fantasy 13 and 15. Even characters in Xenoblade Chronicles had upturned noses. It's just a reoccurring thing in games that have anime inspired art styles.

I was never saying it was unique to them, I was saying it was an obvious design choice to make them look more leporine than they might otherwise.

You are one to talk, in my opinion. Weren't you the one pushing your preferred look for several pages, several pages ago? Maybe I'm remembering wrong.

Things like men from the jungle are really muscular, tall, etc.? Must have been someone else. Had to be.

Wait, weren't you the dude doing that 24/7? You don't want none of this.

You are right. I have posted since day 1 I couldn't care less if they added male viera. This is more of a chat thread than anything else. I was glad when I thought they deleted the thread (hid it?), I had been calling for this thread's deletion since like, well at this point hundreds of pages ago.

I just think it is odd, that you, who were so adamant pages ago, are now flipping the argument. Maybe it wasn't you though.
