    I am sorry if you felt like this. I by no means put the blame on the Viera as a race. I thought I emphasized that in my comment. The thing that I was trying to point out is their poor choice made in making 2 playable races instead of one. I am by no means directing anything at players, cause it's not their fault this happened. What I put blame on was the Viera favouritism of the devs, even Viera players can agree that while yes, we both have limitations, Hrothgar has the worst of it. The fur textures look bad, their models look like a copy-paste of Roe with a hunch and furry mask, they need to use Fantasia to even change their hairstyles (still on hopium that I am making this up and it's not the case anymore), small pool of "hats". When Viera only has a small pool of Hairstyles and hats to choose from, they don't need to pay IRL money. I can't help but feel like if they didn't force themselves to make 2 races at once this problem wouldn't have happened. And you as a Viera player can give your thoughts from your experience and I as a Hrothgar player can only do the same from mine. And from my side it does feel like Hrothgar got shafted for Viera, their model looks better, their textures look better and they don't have to buy a Fantasia to go to the aesthetician. But I want to say again, I don't blame the players, I blame the devs. And I am sorry for upsetting you, it was not my intention.

    Oh no I understand, my comment wasn't aimed at you.
    And for the record, I'm not that fond of the XIV appearance of the Viera - I'd much prefer if they retained their more beast-like features in XII But design wise of Hrothgar, I do like it and it's always a pleasant surprise coming across one in a dungeon (because they're so damn rare)

    One comment I'm struggling with was Raskbucks, I don't see how Viera got special treatment the past few years when we got just as much stuff as Hrothgar...? (Did we?)
