Petition for adding Mog Race!!!

[Zaireeka2025]

Aw... I'm sorry to rain on your little parade, but they shouldn't be a playable race any more than they should be a mount.

If we make moogles a playable race, why not Chocobos? Why not beastmen? lol

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 characteristics 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

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.
