Female Hrothgar as a playable race. Show your support!

You can design a cool race without having to sexualize it. That is my big issue with alot of these fan arts and proposed designs is that they are blatantly sexual. Not thinking how animations, proportions and how gear sits on the model within the art style of 14. That is one of the issues that plague Roes: bad animations, poor proportions and gear sitting on the model like trash.

That proves the difference in mindsets here.
As Ive pointed out, fetish is not my goal or the point. Wider/more muscle is a look I like on a Girl sometimes, but its not for any sexual or fetish reason. How they animate, is a choice on the devs, because these bodytypes can function just fine in both the real world and in the virtual world.
Roes Animate just fine, but this is one of those "Your Opinion" things.

Some gear doesn't look as good as others, this is a fact.
ShB Dancer Veteran Gear does not look as good on a Femroe. Ah well, either they will make a new Dancer glam that will look better, or ill suck it up and find a new look.

And HELLO, Hrothgar by themselves could be seen as appealing to a fetish.

I still can't believe that's a thing.

Highlanders are also nowhere near as popular as Miqo, Au Ra, and even popotoes. By the notion of some people, anything that isn't short uwu kawaii waifu is a waste - heck, despite Viera being popular people still complained they're too masculine for being *gasp* tall and aloof! ...the audacity!

There's different precadent though. The addition of female hrothgar would be a newly added race, after it has been said in interviews how costly adding any more is. Like I said on a previous page, it makes sense that viera was chosen over them, not once, but twice!

If they somehow do, well it'll turn out like FemRoe where it'll probably be a resource drain with no engagement or long term profit.

Unfortunately.

Small bodies like 5 other race options doesnt guarantee Profit or popularity.

Them being a full on beast race, probably means they wouldn't be as popular right off the bat, but having a a very niche bodytype?

I love how now that the male Viera thread has accomplished its purpose all the "controversies" flew over here

I've been posting about the same thing in this thread for over two years now.

Comparing it to the bancho census and theyre relatively similar, female highlanders seem to be as popular as female roe/elezen in their entirety (seawolf + hellsguard)

I think a highlander bodytype could look quite good on femhroth.

Well believe it, its been a thing for quite a long time, way before Hrothgar in FFXIV.

I'll say. *looks at Egyptian mythology*

I miss when furries were acceptable targets on the internet. Those were the days.

Agree personally, they have a very good balance of muscle and curve and most importantly i never found a single piece of gear that looked awkward on them whereas roe (and to a lesser extent elezen) looked bad (or at least not as good) in most of the gear i used

Incorrect, Kemetic (egyptia) culture had nothing to do with furry fetish nor is it a mythology. The ones that engaged in furry behavior were the romans.

Nothing with Talking or Anthropomorphic Animals have anything to do with Furry Culture.
The Furry Culture abducts it into their culture. And those that dont know any better just call it Furry shit.

Rocket Racoon has NOTHING to do with the Furry Culture. But once the MCU made him look cool, here comes the Furries to take hold of it.
