    Male Miqo'te Hands - Please Change/Fix

    So... I don't know if there is a thread about this and when I did the search for it nothing came up. This is probably just me, but... Does anyone else out there think DEVs/Art Designers should change/fix the arthritis-like, eagle claw, stiff-looking hands that the male miqo'te have when they are at rest position? I mean I know it's not a big deal, but... when you look at their hands at certain angles, it just seems a bit too... <insert word>.

    They were going for an aggressive male feline look, perhaps. It bothered me at first when I first started arr with my mankitty.

    Looked awkward and like he was ready to f**k up a scratch post any second lmao.

    I just ended up creating an alt (rhu) that turned into my main lol

    Now I'm just imagining my catboy rolling a 98 on a primal bird, losing to a 99, and then taking out his frustrations on a scratching post. I'd like to ask the devs to please consider adding this furniture item in the future.

    It's funny because female miqo'tes have nothing like this, they're basically fem hyurans with ears and tail.

    when I create Ichiro Kyoshiro (my alt) around 2 years ago, I create a miqote and played some days. I back play with him 1 month ago and I dislike miqote hands and posture, it's something about their race. Now he is a hyur, but still I think lalafell is the perfect race, their emotion and posture are great
    Edit: there's nothing wrong with miqote, but I particularly dont like play with this race

    They're going for a claw-like appearance, I suppose. It does look a little odd, but I've learned to ignore them. I don't mind the male miqo'te claw hands as awkward as some of the running animations for some races (male Au Ra and male Elezens in particular just look kind of...I don't know...)

    If you notice with female miqo'te (if you play on one/have an alt), during cutscenes where they sort of put a foot forward into a sort of...combat stance? Not sure how to describe it...their hands turn into "claws" kind of, too. Just less arthritis-y.

    I like the claw appearance, thanks. Don't think anyone's complained about us miqo'te putting our paws up when we're surprised, what's wrong with it while standing?

    Differentiates us from the midlanders since we use the exact same body model with a tail tacked on.
