New Racers for Final Fantasy XIV

[Orcishgrappler]

I would want a Centar Race! I love Centaur! I wish I could be a Taru sized Centaur!

OMG a Taru sized Centaur Puppetmaster with a little Centaur Puppet!! That wold be EPIC!!!!

Lol at the people saying keep Ivalice races out. Who CARESSSSSSSS... the more unique my character becomes the better.

yea well, some of us actually prefer to have some sort of aesthetic and design continuity.

if not, then I might as well get a Excalibur/Masamune- dual-wielding bunny-ear one-winged galka-taru ninja-knight with a Bahamut mount that piss rainbows and shit ponies while dual casting Holy and Meteor.

umm, no. You mentioned breaking continuity was reusing elements (races) from different final fantasy games in 14. I merely stated that SE had done it before. You disagree with that?

Well, yes, you started as just merely stating that SE has already done it before. However, then followed up with that it is "okay" because SE has done it before. That is what I'm disagreeing with, your line of reasoning. I'm not disagreeing with the fact they have already used it.

The line of reasoning you gave which only opens up the topic was;
They have done it already, thus it is alright to do it again.
Or to just quote you;

My point is how can anyone say races from 'x' FFgame do not belong in XIV, when XIV races are ripped directly from a previous installment.

My line of reasoning is this;
They have done it already, but it does not mean it is wise to do it again.

Then, it opens up the debate as to why it is okay for them to continue to do so, or not to do so.

And we are done here. Refuting facts for the sake of your argument doesn't make you right. lol.

Hey, the people with the horns in grid, I am not sure what their race is but would they count?

They're called Gria and they would be my first vote for a playable race in XIV.

Apparently you're still missing the point. You first stated a fact, which I didn't refute on because it's a fact. However, later on you've started using the fact as a justification for the continuance of it. Such as they did ___ so it is justified they can continue to do ___. That's what I'm arguing over.

Here, lets take it out of context if it helps you understand, since I can't seem to explain this without you getting confused over your own reasoning.

In World War II America conducted the first atomic bombing on Hiroshima, then on Nagaski, and had plans for additional bombings.
Because America had conducted nuclear warfare once before, does that alone justify the use of nuclear warfare on any occasion?

The first bit is a fact,
the second bit is debatable.

If you apply your reasoning to that, then you're basically saying, it's okay to shoot off more nukes because America already did it.

Read your reasoning in your own quote;

My point is how can anyone say races from 'x' FFgame do not belong in XIV, when XIV races are ripped directly from a previous installment.

Re-worded;
"How can ANY race from ANY FF game not belong in FFXIV when they have already used FFXI races."

With that reasoning I can apply it to also,
"How can anyone say FFXI's skill chain system does not belong in FFXIV when they already have FFXI's exp chain system"
