Pronouns???

[KizuyaKatogami]

I'd rather not see it happen, especially this late in the game's development. The sheer amount of text and voice acting that would need to be adjusted to account for such a thing would be a very expensive undertaking - and it would feel very strange and immersion breaking if every NPC - even one's enemies - began referring to every player character as their preferred pronoun even if they had not yet met the individual in question.

As a gay guy, I don't need a character that I play in a game to be gay or even male in order to identify or sympathise with them. I think if people try really hard, they might be able play a character that isn't an exact replica of themselves too. In my opinion someone doesn't need to be a woman to play as Lara Croft in the Tomb Raider games nor do they need to be a man to play as Noctis in Final Fantasy XV. As such, I think the current system in FFXIV is fine.

Agreed. Imo it would be an extreme waste of resources and there's a lot of other urgent things that need to be addressed in the game. I'd also feel pretty weird if it just all of a sudden became a thing of npc's referring to me as gender neutral. I dont think its much of a necessity at all tbh.

You can literally change your gender any time you want in this game. Whats the point except wasting more dev time?

I might be a clueless cis female, but isn't part of being transgendered is to be seen as the gender they transitioned to? At least that's what a lot of stories of transgendered people say. That they want to be seen as passing as much as possible of the gender they identify with. So, I'm a little confused.

Because nowadays people care more about their identity as trans, not the identity of the gender they want to transition to.

You could've been original and at least stayed on topic by including your preferred pronouns with this sixteen year old joke.

They're a low quality troll. What else did you expect?

You mean an MPK alt, right?

So you're saying the gender fluid should be forced to PAY MORE than everyone else in order to be properly represented in the game's dialogue at all times? Really?! It's 2021 people; time to wake up!

If I can get free fantasias by identifying as fluid I will RiP my cis'hood so darn quick. You sold me. Was tired of being at the end of accusing fingers for all of today's problems anyway. Sign me up.

Despite it being a good idea, it's probably never going to happen.
There's been several threads about this before over the years.

Like a lot of things, I have no issue with the idea. However, I think they should focus on what the game actually needs first.
