Idk who needs to hear this but male viera are male viera not your femdom boytoy fantasy.

But the males are not warriors who protect the females from outside ? That's why ppl were waiting for a strong looking male, it didn't have to be extreme tbh. Pretty boys is fine but breaks the warrior part imo.

yeah but as i said before, male viera in my opinion just look like a typical final fantasy (anime) protagonist. their body reminds me of cloud‘s. he looks slim, but he still is a killer machine. just like lots and lots of other anime protagonists. just as larryzaur said in his reaction „THEY LOOK SO ANIME“, and i fully agree with that statement. XD
the males just look young (18-22) in my book, which lorewise makes sense. they look lithe, athletic - a body type that would be fitting for a streaky forest. they always stay hidden after all. maybe they‘ll give an option for an older looking face and some beard options too, which would be neat.

Lol they probably will be just a little shorter than the females. Prob by a single inch.

Why would highlander make no sense then, seeing as it is shorter than Elezen?

The "probably" here doesn't follow. There is no "probably". There's several comparisons, and those which control for the most factors have them at the least around the same height if the male viera depicted is max height.

And that’s awesome and makes sense. Viera are sorta Amazon women. The are the leaders amongst their race. They wear the pants in the relationship. That should be visually represented in their size.

They are not going to be as tall as elezen or Highlander as that literally makes no sense given the females are shorter than female elezen.

Idk who needs to hear this but male viera are pretty boys not your masculine fantasy.

For that you have. Highlander, Au Ra, hrothgar,

Stop pushing your complex on to a race that wasn’t designed for that.

Pray you get one face with a beard and move on

So much of this reads...wrong. The females aren’t the leaders. Idk where you’re getting that idea from but it’s not true. Both genders have different roles in their society and they’re equal in that concept. Going by your logic though, the males should be taller because they’re the defenders of the forest and the ones who keep the females alive. As for the “pants in the relationship” comment...sounds to me you just want some weird femdom relationship with them. That isn’t what this race is for.I’m tired of seeing that gross fetish everywhere since they’ve been revealed. Yoshi P himself equated them to elezen when he mentioned them. They will more than likely be taller than females after seeing the scales in the trailer, but could possibly have a wider varied height slider similar to femroes that allows them to go a bit on the shorter end as well. If anyone’s pushing a complex on a race, it’s you and people like you.

Hrothgar, Highlander and Roegadyn aren't to everybody's tastes. A lot of people - myself included - have been asking for years to have more options for masculine looking characters that are tall, handsome and who boast realistic proportions. Something inspired by the likes of Snow from FFXIII, Gladio from FFXV, Jecht from FFX and Basch from FFXII.

We may or may not see such options where male Viera are concerned. It remains to be seen given that we've yet to see the full range of customisation options and base faces available to them.

I don't think male Viera in their current state are overly feminine or androgynous to the extent that some in this thread are claiming them to be. Certainly, I can tell at a glance that they're men and not women.

Of course, given how some choose to design their characters I don't doubt that they'll be trying to make them as short and feminine looking as possible but niche aesthetics are niche aesthetics and there's a higher chance than not, I reckon, that male Viera will be able to be designed with as broad a range as Midlander or Miqo'te men.

You folks need to stop calling everything a fetish. Lol being fem isn’t a fetish. Having a woman be the leader of a society isn’t a fetish. Having a woman be the head of a household isn’t a fetish. A shorter man dating a taller woman isn’t a fetish. Men not being strong isn’t a fetish.


You keep calling everything a fetish that isn’t to your liking.

The only cringe thing is people like you constantly trying to make these things sexual.

Tbh the only bad part about this is: miqote is already there, there's already barely any difference between min female wiera and max male miqo. Making a taller miqo with bunny ears make sense imo, but smaller than females is making miqo with bunny ears and nothing more... Just play miqote at this point lmao.

That was pretty much what a lot of people said about AuRa males as well. They simply being Elezen with a skin condition and horns.

You are right they do have a lot of range.. I only meant that at current they range from feminine to sort of young and sporty..

they are not macho macho men
And that’s ok.

Personally I love the way they look but I do hope for a beard option for other people. I just get annoyed with the folks who keep pushing this overly masculine stereotype on a race of bunny bois
