How much content was cut for Male Vieras?

[grinkdaboy]

i think you know exactly what i mean

[WoW]

We got our first casualty, All Saint's Wake.

Good start. They should cut more casual content. Would be nice if they even removed normal raids and went back to the style of coils in Endwalker. Saves them the headache of making 12 fights that nobody cares for.

It's terrible how they make content that anyone can do instead of making content for a small percentage of the player base only.

Male viera is barely content, and is only for a small percentage of the player base - who are going to switch off and complain about the limitations after EW.. We can only hope after 4 years SE actually gets around to addressing some of these limitations.

MPK complaining about toxicity.

The dev team a long time ago promised they wouldn't genderlock races. I strongly suspect the reason we didn't get male Viera and female Hrothgar was due to limited resources to spend on it.

So this is really just them making sure they're not going back on their word.

And yes, there is an active demand for both. I mean, all people are asking for is both races to be finish, because they were released incomplete.

It looks like they're using the male Au Ra frame for the body, so they've likely cut out a chunk of work by doing that, because they'd probably not have to do a lot to adapt gearsets for them as the version for male Au Ra problem work out of the box or almost out of the box.

Ultimate is only for a small percentage of the player base, should they cut that and make more stuff everybody has access to?

I feel like they pool some resources into stuff that suits almosts everyone and resources to suit different niches.

So really when people get salty about a niche being satisfied, there's a chance they've suited a niche that suits them too. I mean, I'm in the niche of people who love Au Ra and they gave us male and female versions.

I mean they already cut an ultimate and pushed a mostly complete one back by a year. This effects the HC/MC playerbase. They've also seemingly cut All Saint's Wake, which effects the casual. All this for a fetish bait based race that is probably going to have extreme limitations, but hey it appeases a tiny part of the fanbase right? Screw the rest of us, eh?

I sincerely doubt the same resources that go into making a race also go into Ultimate and All Saints Wake. They're different skillsets and different teams. What's more accurate is "this is probably why we don't have hats on them yet".

And no, not screw the rest of us. You're having to wait longer for an ultimate, they had to wait a whole expansion for what they wanted.

And it's not like there's been a global pandemic going on that has already created sizeable delays or anything? Or changing how they work in a less efficient style of work environment.

This is not satisfying niches. This is wasting a disproportionate amount of resources on those niches.

When is the last time the other races got some customization? How is it ok that they're spending an entire expansion's worth of effort to satisfy a niche of players who will drop Male Viera two weeks after Endwalker release?

I don't care about ultimate. I've never even done it, but it has it's place. Anyway, they are already cutting it, they are bringing us 48-man content, where 75% of the raid can be carried, due to all the casuals.

Male viera are looking to be limited male miqo'te with bunny ears. I guess ERPers will love the race regardless.
