Female Hrothgar as a playable race. Show your support!

I just felt that with how female viera looked, it would make complete sense for their male counterpart to be handsome, and masculine. Where female viera look like women, male viera look like MEN. As I have said, that also is my preference for a male character. Likewise, with female hrothgar, I'd like them to look like a proper counterpart to male hrothgar, but still look good. I am less hung up on the popularity argument as I was in the past. I have softened a lot on a lot of my stances, though I still hold pretty much the same opinions on what I'd prefer them to look like.

Looks like others are now trying to answer that, I would never really know, as I get most of my information about the game from the forums.

With a race like hrothgar, I don't think there is really a potential way of satisfying everyone, unfortunately. They could sacrifice the more bestial look for a more human-like one, which would alienate players who want the former, or do the reverse and go for a more bestial look, rather than a more human-like one, alienating players who want that. This isn't even to mention their body shape!

The thing with male viera is that SE seemingly compromised with their look, because a lot of players actually wanted them quite shorter than they are, and more androgynous. What I find kind of funny is the amount of people that actually have switched off male viera who wanted them. While there are still a decent amount who play them, there are many who switched off due to the current limitations - which we warned them about. I do hope potential female hrothgar players will keep in mind the current limitations and give more feedback regarding that, this time around, or at least keep that in mind when they think about the inclusion of female hrothgar.
