    Ok so people want to start the 'waste of resourses' BS again.

    [Sarcasm]
    Creating more than one race and more than one gender was a waste of resoures. We could have had ARR right now if they had just focused on one race and gender.
    AdventZero, I'd like you to meet my friend, Slippery Slope Fallacy. Slippery slope, meet AdventZero! you two will be best of friends, I can see it now!

    Look, the dev team has a priority list. Certain things are more important than others. Handiness, a very small cosmetic embellishment that a small number of people even care about, is not likely to be high on that priority list. The truth hurts, but that's all there is to it. There are a LOT of things that are more important than this right now.

    Like that mark on meteor survivor characters? I don't think i'll be able to play the game if I didn't have that mark! right? Can say the same thing about them adding in Male Mithra, Female Roegadyn, and Female Highlanders. They didn't need to do any of that, but they did. If they didn't add Male Miqo'te, i would just continue playing female miqo'te /shrug must not be all that important to me.... therefore it must have been a waste of their and our time, in my perspective. However, it was important to many many others that they be added.

    The 'importance' of having that mark, extra genders, chocobo raising, insert something else here, is pretty much equal to the 'importance' of having the ability to equip a weapon in the left hand and a shield in the right. Same with a lot of things their adding that will have no impact on the games playability.

    And once again, not one of us can tell anyone else what SE says is or is not something that can be on the 'list of priorities'. Not one of them has their priority list, nor can we alter their priority list.

    IMO saying it is a waste or resorces or there are more important things is an invalid reason to try to be against something.

    And for the record, I am right handed, so this is not a left handed vs right handed kind of thing. I'm for the impimentation of reasonable options for players, and this is a very reasonable option for players.

    To tell you the truth, as long as the launch date is not pushed back to put it into the game, I really don't give a crap if it does exist. But if they would have to delay the launch to put it in, I say NO. Wait for an update. Or expansion. Or whatever.
