[Critical] Male Viera height slider; tall option. Show your support.

This is true regarding short males. Though putting male Viera into that category seems like a waste unless there's simply a very broad height scale. Can't have them be too close to Miqo'te, seems a lot more likely they'll be in the centre. Also, I know guys want to be tall and all that. But if folks are put off that the females may be taller, I really wish you wouldn't be. Honestly, I rarely see max height females in this game. Folks have this weird obsession making them tiny af.

It's not the idea that males being shorter than females that's the problem.

It's the fact that max height Viera females are only 4 inches taller than max height male Midlanders.

So if you made male Viera shorter than the females by 2-3 inches, they would basically end up the same size as male Midlanders.

And that pretty much obliterates what could've been a tall, handsome male race that isn't Elezen.

As for why so many players making their female Viera minimum height, I feel like it's because a huge part of the playerbase likes playing short characters. "Miqo'te with bunny ears", if you will.

That's why male Midlanders, male and female Miqo'te, and female Au Ra dominate the population, despite being outsized but the majority of the other races.

True, we are rather lacking a handsome tall race. Elezen would have been it but their proportions are way out of whack and their animations stiff. The other tallboys are so far out there in fantasy with their proportions that they're off-putting. So I can see where you're coming from.

Honestly, all of this could be solved if they just added in the broad scale.

Though personally seems like they'll be like Bosmer in Elder Scrolls where the women are taller by a smidge to the point it's hardly noticeable, but it's there.
