Male Viera as a playable character! show your support

It's a little sad how he has to twist himself into knots of "I'm not saying yes but I'm also trying really hard not to say no." If they WERE coming in 6.0 I think he'd say something cheekier like "we still haven't revealed everything!" but so far seems he recognizes the support but also recognizes they can't deliver just yet.

that‘s the kind of thing that bugs me he was asked about new races or missing genders. it seems he said no to new races, but hasn‘t said anything about the genders. he just should‘ve said, nope no races or genders this expansion, but he said there is no easy way to say „yes“. what does that mean? no to new races / maybe „yes“ to the missing genders?

this bugs me as well, its like its just intentionally vague so ppl can see whatever they want or maybe its just mistranslation, but he said again no to new races (which are brutally unrealistic to expect) but apparently at least, unless by 'new races' he also refers to missing gneders, which isnt exactly clear on the awnser, it just seems its the same old story of 'look forward to the fanfest to learn more', and as much as their communication is much better than most developers, the fact that they cant be more transparent (be it because of choice or because its required by the company) really bugs me, I would of course be sad but I would understand it perfectly if the awnser is a 'No, not for 6.0, we have no plans in the future' but it would at least put the subject to rest, its just incredibly tiresome to go without any actual substantial news for so long and whenever news do come, they are just nothing new. And also, no it isnt like they 'have no news to give', they have basically 0 chances of adding them if they begun now, if they arent coming in 6.0, they should come straight up and tell us 'no, not right now' and I think most players would be understanding

Sounds like he's saying that even though he understands they're highly requested and he'd like to be able to just say yes, he can't because the dev cost is just so massive. So a roundabout way of saying nothing's changed since their last statement on it really.

And the "look forward to further announcements in May" seems to be in response to the other parts of the question like gender locked gear.

That's my interpretation of it anyway.
