First expansion pack and new race

[Lord_Mylo]

Why Vieras should be on Eorzea it's just stupid imo.

Ummm, let's see, FFXIV was closed off and limited FF(ish) so they promised to make ARR use more FF. They give a ton of crap from FF games (like FFXI mobs, FF3 airship minion, FF1 minions, upcoming fat chocobo, FF6 mount, FF4 based upcoming AF2, FFXI and FFXIII crossover events, Cait Sith minion, Ultima Weapon and countless other FF items,) but somehow a Viera would be out of place...

If they really want to add a NEW race so they have to create one for Eorzea i'm bored to see stuffs from other games

I agree that if we got a new race, I would want it to be original art assets. Something completely new. Not more recycled, old Final Fantasy stuff.

That's how you get squidfaced spacegoats in your game. its going to be impossible to make up something without some basis elsewhere why not keep with visual cues that work with what we have rather than trying to throw in something novel for novelty's sake?

What's wrong with draenei? I found them rather fascinating additions to WoW, to be honest. Creativity is not a bad thing. Leaning on the same few creative assets over and over again drains the creativity of those assets until it just seems lazy. Squeenix has an opportunity with XIV to play with a new world and build never-before-seen cultures. There are entire continents on Eorzea we know nothing about; they could easily create something entirely new.

You may be playing the wrong MMORPG.

I bet 1 gil for Lizardmen.

There is some kind of lizardman in Limsa market I think

I would not mind Vieras.. it would lessen the Miqote infestation! :P

They could make Male Vieras looks like semi wolfs.

Of course the whole FFXII model need to be smoothed out for the realistic look.

[Memoe]

Give me my bunny ears already!

Goddamnit Yoshi-P I don't see how it would be weird.

[Demetirus]

I'd be curious to see how they handled male Viera as well as how they'd handle helmets for them. (I mean, I don't think they could do the same thing as they did for the Miqo'te)

Could someone please link me to the original mention of a new race or the voting for it? This is the first I've heard of it. Thank you!
