What is going on with Square Enix and the 14 team?

So the Hrothgar were sort of their "do-over" to finally create a bestial race, and even then, they still chickened out and decided not to add women. Personally, I can only hope that when the FemGar finally are released, they look even HALF as badass as the earlier dragonlady designs.

kkron_m's art on twitter is how I personally wish they'd go for female hrothgar. It's nice and badass-looking without it making them too afraid of adding in another bestial playable character model.

I'd prefer those Au Ra any day though. What we got look a bit too much like porcelain dolls...

Yeah, unfortunately, never gonna happen.

At best, when the FemGar come out I see them looking like Cheetara and Pumira from Thundercats. Corporate creators like SE are typically afraid of making female characters less conventionally attractive. Especially in Japan, where Moe and Kawaii are so normalized.
