Gender locked race?

[Corue]

So can make this a bit clear financially speaking isn't logical after so many requests towards a full race Viera to be only 1 gender they would lose money if they did only match the expectations in half, that is not the way SE so far they did listen to everyone and this request is from many players around the globe as old as two to three years can't precise.

You severely underestimate SE's decision making.
The only time "logical" and "Square Enix" work in a sentence is if it's "Boy, Square Enix's financial choices defy all forms of logical thinking."

There was a chibi G'raha Tia button shown on a community stream which led credence to the discord leak saying gender locking is going to happen i still take the discord leak with grain of salt for multiple reasons but i am not outright dismissing them either, its also a case where everyone is hungry for info to just put this matter to rest

Ah, which discord link was that one? The one where the chap threw out his place of work or another? So many these days. I don't even remember anything about Chibi G'raha Tia; but great, looks like we have to deal with him in the future, eugh.

if those leaks are true

that is the unfortunate situation it is in Hrothgar will have to deal with the stigma of 'we got this instead of male viera' if they do gender lock something that is really unfair for them to deal with it wouldn't have anywhere near the animosity it currently has if it was an addition to fully playable viera

There was the older maybe-leak-maybe-copycat claiming the Crystal Tower would be important, which was then strengthened by possibly-G'raha apearing on the 5.0 poster. I'm not sure if there's something more recent.

And now there was a picture from an official stream that people are taking to be a G'raha minion, but I think it just looks like a chibi fanart picture. I'm only going on the one screenshot that was posted in this thread here though.

I personally believe it'll be all dependent of what is said in the next fanfest.

If it is, "We thought these would look cooler" it would be at the race.
If it is the person who created Viera who said he didn't want them in FFXIV/in it yet until he reveals it himself then it will be at him.
If Yoshi says he didn't want male Viera personally, it'll be directed straight at him.

Just give me a human looking face with a giant beard and I’ll love it.
