Hrothgar weren't meant to appeal to every western gamer.
They were meant to appeal to the niche of rpg players who make beastly characters.

That was a niche that ffxiv wasn't filling before. Here's hoping they can throw us female character players a beastly bone as well.


(I know we won't get those glorious clawpaws, but here's hoping we'll have a recognizable snout and a bit of beef, you know, look like the same damn species as the males.)


Just because more players want one thing, doesn't mean they can have every other thing cater to them as well, especially when they're already catered to in abundance/excess. :3
