I don't get what people don't get about "wasted resources".
How many obese people are there in the parts of the world where this game is popular? A lot in the west. Would the devs or anyone reasonable think that doing everything they would have to do to make "Dulia-Chai" playable be "worth" the time, dev strain and $$$ investment needed? Prob not worth doing that.
Same with the "No more genderlocked gear!" crowd who want everything from Neo to seasonal sets to be wearable in both gender forms for either gender, that would be twice the amount of work to end up making gear that doubles female's options but only a tiny fraction of people who play male characters would bother wearing. Not worth the headache and would be a waste of energy.

What is and isn't "worth" or a "waste of resources" is completely up to the devs, but that doesn't mean we have to act blind to the logic they would have to apply to this. .
The argument that I was responding to was basically that if the devs made a certain decision on making Hrothgals more bestial then it’d be a ‘wasted resource.’ I was telling them it wouldn’t be since that decision might appeal to certain people. This has nothing to do with what I want and everything to do with not labeling whatever the devs want as a potentially ‘wasted resource’.
