Poll/Discussion: Which playable race would you want in Final Fantasy XIV after Au Ra?

[Norna]

I just thought to check where the community is right now with the introduction of Au Ra.

Link to Strawpoll.

Wiki links since not everyone's played all Final Fantasies:
Viera | Gria | Aegyl
Bangaa | Nu Mou | Seeq
Garif | Lilty | Yuke
Ronso | Hummingway | Burmecian/Cleyran

How many of these threads do we need? We havent even got our first new race yet and already people are wanting something else...

Most of these would be better suited for beast tribe races more than player races.

Let me have these guys back from FFVIII.

A beast race that is actually a beast race would be awesome. It'd give us some variety.

[RyuDragnier]

I want Bangaa badly. But then again, I'd prefer an actual MMO in Ivalice, which is what I was hoping FFXIV was to begin with, they had so many races already established they could have used. That's still a pet peeve I've had for a while, I WANT MORE IVALICE!

It's never to soon to start voting.. It can take 1-2 years for them to make a new race. ^_^

I just want to see where everyone stands now when they've gotten a look at Au Ra in the benchmark. I remember when Heavensward was announced as sky themed that Gria was a popular suggestion (I saw it mentioned a lot more than Aegyl, for example), and female Au Ra are, pretty much, Gria aesthetically but without wings and with extra scales. I'm actually surprised that Gria are beating plant people (Lilty, I'm more particular to their Crystal Bearers looks than their Lalafellin incarnations) and Hummingway (since Hummingway are a lot like FFXII moogles that so many want, just without being Moogles).

It needs to be mostly human and I'd really rather not have another tall/ lithe race with ears. Especially concept art =/= how it'll look like in game. So something with wings will be nice

Or Red XIII's race, using weapons to Sif's style (DS), even dual/shield

[StrejdaTom]

I would actually like them to create brand new race rather than to copy paste from other final fantasy game.
Something without tail but with wings would be nice, but it would be hard lorewise to explain why they would be able to fly only in Heavensward areas.
I think harder than for mounts.
