The cat's (or femhroth in this case) outta the bag

[Niimura]

If it was so simple like a "blue miqo'te" then they would be released in november for sure, which is not the case.

Also, lets not forget that Hrothgar are called Ronso only in The First, unlike Vieras who ARE Vieras back in The Source, so it is not fair to compare it to the Ronsos from FFX.

All in all it is a very dry design that one in the book, and I believe that's because they can't detail it too much since it is a work still in progress. We also don't know the age-appearance for Gunnhildr in that picture or anything else right? So it should be fine... Unless you're telling me all Hrothgars look the same lol

Please stop reading so much into *concept art*.

Especially one single piece of *concept art*.

I know this thread is a kneejerk reaction to concept art. I know I look antagonistic towards the community and the devs. But I love the game. The world, music, and lore are all fantastic. I know these devs can do better. Even with covid they only delayed 5.3 by 2 months.

The problem is that you don't know what they've done yet, you're taking one drawing from a book and then causing people to speculate and calling the devs lazy etc which is totally unnecessary.

Only thirsty people.

Or maybe people who want to have a butt and not a flat plank.
Seriously tho this mentality is really tiresome, like is it really that big of a mystery why people want better customization and as much of it as possible?

Seriously I see people being horny for muscle sliders too.
But no one would say the same thing about that...
I even see people who get unironically turned on by women in '' historical armor '', they'll complain about skimpy gear but then the next second talk about how sexy they think it is and not understand the irony.

Please don't delude yourself into thinking they'll have a unique body mesh, because no female model has that sans lalafell.
They most certainly won't look like miqote though, their head mesh will probably be a lot less human, so something with a furry femroe body and lion head is the most likely outcome.

There's certain pieces of armour in the game that can give people's character a big butt... I don't think S.E should waste time on unnecessary details like butt sliders when there's items in the game that can give you just that.

Majority of people want muscle sliders because that would give players the option to play a more masculine-looking character because a lot of the male's look very feminine.

This is 100% going to be the case.

Besides lalafell, all the females in the game share the same female Hyur midlander body mesh internally with just slight modifications proportionate to each race. This is to make it so 'one set of gear works for all' to streamline their gear R&D process. heck, even Hrothgar simply re-use the male roe skeleton.

No matter what, they're going to have the same form & bone structure as any of the other tall female races in the game to keep their gear R&D process streamlined. The only actual race customization will be coming from addition of a tail, possible fur patterns that just mimic how the 2D textures of the Au Ra scales work only with fur, and in possible unique head shapes/etc if they forgo headgear like current Hroth/Viera.

I use the 2b bottoms because as a female in RL my arse is not flat...it is prob too big haha but I wish they would make us more curvy. I do not really like muscles on my characters but there are those who do. They need a character overhaul tbh.

As for the art can not really say until they are in game. I dislike female Roe they are too big and masculine and not what I like.

If they are more mature looking and they have cool hair then it might sway me.

Women generally have wide hips and bigger butts, so then by that logic a butt slider and/ or a hip slider would allow us to make more feminine-looking characters.
And people still say the same thing ( that it's '' just cuz horny '' ) with breast sliders.

I don't think that you should be forced to wear a single leg piece in the whole game if you want to have a butt.
The butts are basically non-existent without it lol.

Lol so true!!!! Ffxiv IS the thirsty boy game 999%
It’s kinda like /R Nice Guy’s disguised as RP. By RP I mean ERP cuz nobody actually RPs…

This is a thing too.
Personally I don't care about my character reflecting me irl, quite the opposite usually.
But a lot of people like to make their characters more of a representation of themselves irl.

Obviously you won't be able to do that 100%, but if you have more curves irl then at least being able to push that a little beyond '' flat '' ingame would be nice.
Just reducing this to '' people are just horny '' is so insanely narrow-minded but people do it constantly and it's really tiresome.

As I've said in the Femhroth thread, the face needs to be as bestial as the males and have the same kind of "fur-skin" the males have. Otherwise it's just Miqo'te 2.0.
