    If we were to introduce a toggle option, tails would completely disappear from gear where the base of the tail is usually exposed (such as swimwear or subligar). Considering that tails are part of a Miqo'te's body, it's not really something we can do as having a tail is one of the unique characteristics of Miqo'te.

    However, in regards to equipment where it seems more natural to have the tail hidden, such as the chocobo suit, we will consider designs where the tail is tucked away when adding gear moving forward.

    The bonertail still haunts me. What has been seen, can not be unseen anymore.

    I honestly wonder who thought the bonertail looked good.

    Its funny because most of the gear just lets tails clip though the armor. Armor that accommodates tails is few and far between, so we can only guess that devs simply don't want to make armor with tails in mind. toggling them off is a good solution

    Sadly, that seems rather accurate.

    My issue with this is that it's rather ... not even sure what the right word here would be, insulting? I mean, for cryin' out loud, they provided the entire race as a playable option themselves. Miqo'te was not placed in the game by a 3rd party. To go on ignoring their very own design and giving us half-assed/gimped solutions for, what, the whole lifetime of the game is what it's gonna be now? I find that incredibly lazy (no, I don't care how small the team is) and infuriating. And there is a second race coming in with non-human body elements. Is that also going to be ignored in favour of "majority"/speed?...
