Male Viera as a playable character! show your support

"Male Viera are ruining my immersion," someone says while taking off in a flying car.

That Flying Car was explained that it could actually exist. Garlean Tech isn't far off from it.
So this is kind of a Weak Gottcha.

And the living chocolate mount that comes from trademarked Butterfingers candy? The Lunar Whale bought with cash that just spontaneously appears in the world without any prior mention? The mikoshi that's carried by Namazu who apparently follow me around on all my adventures, which also includes multiple worlds despite the game's narrative making it clear that that's not an easy thing that most people can just easily do?

We could also talk about how story characters won't react differently to my character wearing nothing but a wiggly slime head in serious cutscenes. Nobody seems to care if I fight primals while dressed in provocative bunny clothes either. Me using a Fantasia potion is never questioned or even slightly acknowledged by anyone else in the game, and it seems to retroactively change the history of my character as well. What about the fact that my character just stands completely still while someone gives an overly dramatic monologue and slowly walks into a boss room despite me easily being able to prevent that upcoming encounter? We could also talk about a questline where I'm not able to prevent something from happening in the future because I'm never given a choice to speak up by the developers despite actively wanting to.

There are many things in the game that don't currently make sense in terms of lore, so it's weird that some people are so hung about a few more player character options of all things, especially since I'm again not easily going to believe that every single male Viera across both the Source and First worlds universally would agree to never appear to any other non-Viera characters, although even if your character is a female Viera, they still refuse to ever appear to you for some unexplained reason; that's less immersive to me than some players being able to play as male Viera who don't share the same beliefs as the entire rest of their species across multiple worlds.

Lol...all I said was the Flying Car is Explained that is could exist in the FFXIV world.
