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

But nobody has answered a pivotal question here. Why take the manlet option?

Some people just prefer to play shorter characters. (most people do, if the censuses are to be believed)
for me, they feel faster/larger characters run in slow motion. I know some people feel conflicts are more epic when their character is physically unassuming yet is constantly facing larger-than-life enemies. Some people don't like to stick out in a crowd. And some, that's just who they are (like my fc discovered that like half of us are 5' 6" lol)
(also what is it with kinks and fetishes with some of you? You know not every source of motivation comes from the loins right? ...Right?)

well i must admit, i play miqo‘te because they look pretty amazing, so do hyur - the two most popular male races. if we go to the taller races now, we really start to see some weird design choices, which imo drive many people away. i planned to play an elezen in 2.0, because i really prefer the elvish races. i was put off because of their lankiness, they have stiff animations and their running animation is also weird and many other weird design choices (small head, giraffe neck). then we have au ra males, who are really handsome, but i see how the forced scales in the face may put many off(which imo are more apparent for example compared to the females), but since it‘s their identity it‘s justified. i see their thunder hips getting mentioned a lot also (hour glass shape)... which is also quite controversial among the community - for me personally it‘s just sometimes really difficult to glamour around it. then we have highlander, who could really need eyebrows added and maybe some handsome face options. roe... well yeah... not everyones cup of tea just like hrothgar -they are designed to a appeal to a certain niche.
the reason why i personally don‘t wish male viera to be drastically smaller is because we‘d have another race competing between the most played male races: miqo‘te and hyur. i‘d personally would love them around the height of the females - which lore wise makes also perfectly sense. the females for example are the third most played race (active accounts) which in all honesty brings some fresh air to the races, we now have finally a popular tall race competing with the smol, cute races. (miqo‘te and au ra)

about the kink and fetish part: twitter might be the reason why some people think they only want them smaller just because of a weird fetish - but it‘s silly projecting that to everyone. twitter can be a really, really weird place after all. xD
