    It's the way that it was said. It was making fun of our choice of playable race.

    Learn to laugh at yourself a little It's more fun that way.

    I make fun of all the races, esp the little potato lalas XP Don't take it seriously (However I am a fantasia addict so I see it as no big deal)

    Au Ra are the weird, slightly diseased looking lizard waifus.

    And I'm ok with being one at the moment XP Cuz I am my own waifu then! tehe.

    Thing is Au Ra were suppose to be more feral looking. However, guess they were to beastly or "not cute enough" to warrant letting us play them as is. The concept above had me excited but after the full reveal I tucked my fantasia back in my retainer.

    That wasn't enough to keep them out of previous Final Fantasy games. Kimahri has his share of fans, even in Japan.

For the Warrior of Light to gain the trust and cooperation of the three starting nations, they NEEDED to not be a Beastman.
    There are a lot of tensions with enemy beastmen, yet at the same time there are Goblins and Mammol Ja living and working in Limsa, and Gridania has had an alliance with the Slyphs for a long time. Even Ul'dah has people who trade with the friendlier beastmen. So they're really not implacably against ALL beast tribes.

    If SE wanted to add a playable beastman race, Eorzea would simply accept that it's one of the friendly (or at least tolerable) beastman races rather than an enemy race. It would take a bit of adapting, but so does the addition of any new race that hadn't been referenced before.

    I keep thinking Au Ra would have had more success with the first idea. It's a shame the ended with the actual ugly Au Ra.

    I'm really bummed they didn't go for this.
    When I first saw this during the live stream I got hyped, but then we saw the finished product.
    Still looks more fierce (in my opinion anyway) than any other of the current races. And that's why I went for it.

    I think you're taking their choice of phrasing a little too personally.
