Please just give us Viera!

At this point, I'm starting to lean more in the "give more creation options" camp. However, if we just HAVE to have another race so soon, I just personally would like *whatever* it is to not suffer from such dimorphism like AuRa. If you're going to have males one way, please make the females similar and vice versa. And though I know a highly unpopular opinion, a new race with females that are not in similar vein to Au'Ra/Miquote/midlander Hyur would be bonus.

Always be apprehensive towards concept art. The final product will most likely look nothing like it.

Take the Au Ra concepts for example (or even the 'finished design' artwork).

Concidering how they presented the previous races, like Au Ra, It might end up look closely to the pictures, and that would be perfect^^

Concept arts/finished designs and actual ingame models will ever differ from each other.

Well, I think that some early concepts were much more interresting/unique, as the final result. I would love to have an option to let my Au Ra look like this:

Plus, i think I remember a pnj speaking of his home country as Dalmasca, so we coul imagine it's the same univers oO

Too bad they changed them, that's the kind of Au'ra i would have played !

No it is not. It's a reference.

How can a location be a reference ? oO especially if you've already used that name or a "real" location in one of the univers you've created

Example:
Crystal Tower, named after and is direct homage to III's Crystal Tower but it still XIV's own, much like Dalmasca, it's just a name.
XIV's not the only game in the series to do this.

Direct reference to Final Fantasy I's Mount Gulg but it's still its own thing in that game's universe.

All for a bunny race but for the love of god, no more -Japanese school girl with horns/ tail/ ears attached- stuff (no offense if thats your thing, speaking purely for creative reasons) as we've got 2-3 races that have filled out that role just fine. Can understand the dev's cautious/play it safe mentality for the general audience but its just getting...boring.

Offtopic, innitially had really high hopes when I found out a 'dragon race' was getting added. Saw the male version 1st and danced around the room. Saw the female one and assumed a miqo was just wearing a strange hat (again no offense) Either way, just wish theyd push the creative aspect a little more.

The previous concept art for the Vera posted was beautiful enough. And while itd probably be a waste to wish as something as immaginative as say Freya from ff9 or something more adult/womanly like, I dunno..Xena with bunny ears (. . .) just wish theyd change it up a little lol.

Just because Costa de Sol appears here doesn't mean the game is connected to Final Fantasy 7.
