Petition for adding Mog Race!!!

[HiirNoivl]

Your logic perplexes me. Really? Your comparing chocobos as your argument? Don't just go choosing random creatures and acting as if moogles wouldn't make for a good race. I don't mind you having your opinion, but at least have a good argument besides the "why not just make the primals a playable race, or dodos, or goobbues?" silliness. I'm not just randomly choosing any creature and slapping racial attributes that aren't there.

Moogles have already been depicted as a viable race in the world of Ivalice (and please don't say "go play those games then" because you seem the type to use that line). Many reasons as to why a Mog race would fit in are obvious. Just a few to enlighten your closed mind:

- Moogles have been playable a playable race in past FF games (FF6 and FFT)

- They will look great in AF gear

- Moogles have well-defined backgrounds in the series and would be ripe for lore-building

- Yoshi P is looking for more FF in his FFXIV, and so are we

- FF fans adore moogles, why not let us play as one?

- It would be a great segway into Engineer/Machinist/Gadgeteer jobs and classes

- Read the OP

P.S. Beastmen would obviously make for a great race too. Yoshi P is already considering a dragon-like race. So ya, why not beastmen?

We already have lalafells. Moogles would be redundant.

Now there's an argument. And I agree, Lalafells have taken up the short race slot. Only thing I can say to that is that moogles could still fit into a short, but furry, category that differentiates itself from Lalafells' more gnomish builds. Also, YoshiP has considered (by name) a Viera-like race in his last Player's Poll letter. If they are willing to consider a race so similar to Mi'qotes, then I see no harm in speculating an interest on SE's part to consider a Mog race.

I respect your opinion HiirNoivl, and sorry for the harsh responses. I am, after all, this community's self-initiated official Moogle Rep.

Mog's were never considered. They weren't even a choice. Given that Yoshi is a person who likes a more FF-like game, I doubt he would ever consider letting Moogles be playable, since they haven't been for so long. They're NPCs, Helper-types, that would probably serve only as companions at most. I think that's how it should be.
