Please add a new unique race to 14

Why not just add the option of sharp teeth/third eye in Hyur customization and call it a day?

While you're add it, also throw in some bunny ears for the Viera fans. Because if your race isn't going to be more than a human with a slight addition, you might as well just make it a slight addition. Half our races can easily be made from a Breton with a modded character editor in skyrim >_>

Well Imperials have a third eye on their foreheads, goblins are mean lallafells, and vampires like the Witcher are pretty okay as they are.. No need for a modded Hyur.

Issue isn't only the head, people have been suggesting things like claws, wings, and even full animal legs (no feet, but paws). That is all of a sudden a lot more to work on.

Just giving a sense of scale to the job and the reason why, even though other games did it, it is not viable for FFXIV to add more bestial pc races.

We already have a perfect candidate for 'playable race' - the Garleans.

But they can't use magic...

But they can't use magic...

No, but they appear as a people, to have a natural ability to construct and use Magitek, I feel sure that could be used to overcome the lack of natural affinity to 'magic'.

Where is this discussion coming from again? Is there some leak I'm unaware of?

Also, I'll pick the unpopular choice and select padjal for my race of choice. They're already around, things have already been modeled for them and more get thrown into the world whenever they're needed anyway.

[Nestama]

I think it's mostly to counter the Viera thread(s).

Problem with Padjal is how rare they are and how they're "born." Like with Beastman type races, they'll most likely never be playable due to lore reasons :/
