I can't see anyone who are saying Female Hrothgar shouldn't be made, all I can see are people fearing the final outcome of their design based on how male Hrothgar are treated... You know Female Hrothgar are pretty much set in stone to be included, right?? So it really wouldn't matter if people are against their implementation at this point. Look how many protested against the Hrothgar's earless hairstyles before 6.1, both on the JPN and ENG forums we all asked for them to be postponed and they launched them anyway.
My personal opinion is that F-Hroths should be further postponed until male Hrothgar are up to scratch, because as I said, a new race's gender takes up many resources and I think it would be best suited into SE righting their wrong first. I even said this before male Viera were brought in, that SE should focus on the current limited races before bringing in new ones with the exact same issues. People enjoy it because it's all fun and new at first, but eventually the novelty wears off and it only results in SE making a bunch of money from fantasias.
I remember I voiced my disappointment on the forums at F-Viera and M-Hrothgars neglect for 3 years, just because SE were busy creating male Viera.... The amount of new male Viera's who came at me at 6.0's launch, preaching how they won't ever get sick of it and yet, when I look at their profile icons now they fantasia'd to a different race. Lack of hats and hairstyles gets to people eventually, the novelty does wear off for the majority, while only a few stick it out and continue to wait for our next drip of hairstyles.
Some people, you mean me? It was in response to what you said "It’s weird that Square Enix didn’t just do both male and female Viera for Shadowbringers"
Bare in mind, F-Viera and M-Hrothgar were supposed to be the last two races, with no gender counterpart planned, so I assume they were supposed to be each others 'unique' counterpart. So if they did follow your suggestion and made both male and female Viera in Shadowbringers, do you really think they still would have made Hrothgar? Knowing how many resources were taken up already. I reckon they wouldn't of considered anymore new races after Viera, it would've been done and dusted.
