Female Hrothgar as a playable race. Show your support!

I would actually really like it if they used the queen's model as the base to work from, or add that model to femroe through a 3rd clan or something. I bet femroe popularity would sky rocket.

Yup, pretty much what I've been saying. They know exactly how FemRoe look. They could have easily taken any FemRoe summer set and tossed some gold stuff on it, so they did this to the Hrothgar queen infused Femroe for a reason.

Probly because Im too busy just playing the game instead of staring at body shapes. So if there was a difference, flew over my head because I was reading the text.

lmao, this lame high ground BS again.
Encase you didn't know, people saying "Fashion is the true end game" aren't memeing. Lots of people who play this game put a lot of thought into crafting glams for their character and studying what works on them and their body. 1 of the 2 threads I made on this forum was pointing out a graphical error with some glam interactions on my Femroe. I am a part of a number of FF14 FB glam communities AND I was highly invested in the story, and I've played Femroe for years so I know how they look in revealing stuff and as such I could tell with ease that the Queen didn't have a Femroe body at all as I read the text and watched the cut-scenes.

So yeah, I'm also "just playing the game". If your definition of that implies that you're blind to such glaring physical differences, then your definition only applies to you.

The body still barely looks any different at all. Maybe a slightly shorter stomach, better skin texture, and they have her slouched a little bit in 2 of those pictures, Otherwise its pretty much the same body.
I think people like to Fish for any little thing and run to the moon with it. Then placebo themselves into believing things.

If you think that body "barely looks any different" then IDK what to say other than it's strange you play FemRoe and don't register how they actually look. But ehh, you do you.

Can this nonsense just stop...nobody asking for a Muscular Female character is asking for a Man with tits.

That has literally been said and shown many a time by the same few regs, so I won't stop calling that out.

Gunnhildr looks far too skinny. Especially her arms.

I feel like normal Roegadyn proportions look fine, and the "un-feminine-ness" is as much about stance as body shape.

You can feel how you want. It's perfectly fine for a woman to have w/e body shape. But if you're addressing why so much of the gear options in this game look bad on FemRoe, it's because all non-Lala focused gear was built for Middies. Different body shapes look better or worse in different styles of clothing, and this game isn't exactly great at accommodating steep deviations from the norm. That doesn't have anything to do with stance and much to do with the fact that you can't ignore someone's body shape when thinking of "things that would good on them".

If you want to saddle the 1 option for furries with the traits that make it so much gear look bad on Femroe, that's your right. I disagree though and think the end goal should be to get more body shape options for every race.

You're the one posting walls of text about how everyone else is wrong based on a guess that is just as likely/unlikely as any other.

I'm pretty sure that's just the viera body with a roe head on top. I'm hoping they look like this.

These still have to be some of my favourite fanarts. They look so fluffy! Shame that we'd probably never get such fluffy textures. IIRC that was a limitation that was discussed during the male Hrothgar reveal.

Apparently wanting something like this [what femroes should've been]

Is the same as asking for this

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Do you know what the phrase "High ground" means?
Saying "Im too busy just playing the game instead of staring at body shapes" is an attempt to take some fictional moral high ground by insinuating that someone else has to be largely just "staring at body shapes" to notice what a Femroe does and doesn't look like.

So, not sure why you quoted that.

I dunno, seems pretty similar to me.

Why not just ask for FemRoe to have the body shape you wish for through expanded CC?

Both requests wouldn't be mutually exclusive, my point was less about asking femhroths to be like that and more about the notion that even wanting a non conventional body is instantly shot down with 'ewww!!' responses at the sacrilege of a woman being muscular

My love for female hrothgar burns as much as my dislike for yoshida and viera.

Honestly wouldn't be surprised if Gunnhildr's design was from using Sophia's skeleton or something. They've done it before for an Au Ra.

Much of the few Hrothgar art that's posted here IS of the 2nd spoiler tag verity, btw.
But even that's beside the point, I'd say that I don't think that's even the point of the race. The "Non-conventional" and core identity behind them would be that they are furries aka got-them-animal-heads-yoo. I see zero reason for them to have a masculine or buff shaped to begin with.
