Moogle as playable race

[Miesta]

i was thinking about this. moogles have played a big part of FF for many years and id like to see them as a playable race. i think it would be very cute to be a moogle and id def be one. what does everyone else think about this idea?

[DreadRabbit]

Welp, the main answer is if they're not going to create armor for beast tribe or beast-like characters, they'd probably wouldn't do it for moogles.

But I agree with you. I'd actually be tempted to give up my Au Ra if I could play a moogle. Moogle tanks would compete with Lala tanks for best possible tanks.

I'm gonna have to say no based off their lore in the game as is. Besides I don't think a race that's persistantly flying is a good idea when it comes to gear design and system resources. Best bet for playing as a moogle is making a pale skin lalafell with a moogle cap on.

I would love this! <3

Moogles being tinier than lalafell, and who prefer to fly and has never been seen walking on the ground, I highly doubt they would ever implement them to be a playable race.

As mentioned in this thread, for lore reasons they daren't break that where suddenly there is an abundance of Moogles around Eorzea.

Been asked a couple of times but it seems that the community that want the moogles as playable race are too small for SE to actually implement them in game. I would to play as a Moogle though.

I remember being so disappointed moogles weren't playable in Xi, and even more disappointed there weren't any previous FF races...

I would absolutely love to play a little moogle, but their anatomies would probably make it very hard on the design team to make gear for them.

People say it doesn't make sense lore-wise as well but I disagree with that point personally. For all we know the dev team in-charge of the lore could make it so for one reason or another, Moogles have decided to join us in our adventures and the expansion can even be centered around them (like how HW is centered around dragons).

i would also love to play with a moogle; problem is their current design isn't suitable to such possibility. If they had designed them like in Ivalice games (FFTactics, FF12, etc.) it would have been possible i guess since their body/proportions would be similar to the Lalafells. But since they have a completely different shape. Putting this race like a playable character would mean re-modeling every single piece of armor to suite their body shape. Which is a lot of work ^^;

If they where more Ivalice looking sure. But in this game they're nigh but hopeless puffballs.
