Lupin - make it a playable race!

[Kosmos992k]

Please no. We absolutely do not need truly animalistic playable races. It would really change the game, and make a total mockery of the existing game lore. They may as well make goblins, sylphs, Ixal, and all the others playable, including the various mutant ninja turtles, and talking fish. Please, no. Just no.

[FoxyAreku]

yes please. Best race they could ever add.

But it's not 90% human with waifu potential so it won't happen. Incoming hideous viera. -.-

so catman, dragonman, now wolfman? noooooo

Human face/body
Human face/body
Doggo face/ mostly human body. Not desirable to the majority of the player base and too bestman to be acceptable for Ul'dah and Gridanians would probably spear them on the spot. Really, it's a wonder why auri even get accepted.

I'm all for more variety and less races that are just variations of human. I'd love for Lupin to be playable! Why else make assets and add them into the game as NPCs then to dangle things in our face to tantalize our imaginations?

I like how everyone is crying "furry" for wanting a beastlike race. I'm for a inhuman race. Right now the least human looking races are Lalafel, Au Ra and Roe in some ways. Something that is different would be great. I'll support anything that isn't "human".

[Aquaslash]

We have this discussion and the answer is always the same. We'll never get non "cute" races because the East doesn't want them, and the West won't front enough money to cover it. At the end of the day, the "sexy" races, aka Miqote and Au Ra are the most played by a great landslide, Hfafgapa Zibom and friends not withstanding.

HOWEVER, I strongly believe that the Viera are coming. Much like the Gjallarhorn was in Destiny, they're being saved for a time when the devs feel they need a big boost in revenue. The Devs KNOW that they're a popular demand and they KNOW that fantasia sales will explode the day it happens. Just gotta wait for the right time

I'm thinking, if the Lupin are being added it will be a 4.x surprise.
The models have moving jaws and are already fitted for standard gear.... Its very likely they are coming.
