Gender locked race?

[Kupocoubo]

Then if they add Ronso for whatever bizarre reason I guess we will have both genders. I'm all for a beastly amazonian cat lady. I was also all for the powerful demonic female builds with amazing tails much like a Tiefling they have for Au Ra before making them petite little girls you could snap in half.

If Viieras are female only but the Ronso get two genders people will be MAD.

Viera will have the option for bent ears, and there will be a variation that look like "young elezen".

By the looks of MrHappy's tweet they are most likely saving Male Viera for Tokyo https://twitter.com/Mrhappy1227/stat...05623912669186

I am pretty sure they have much more to show because each race usually gets 2 tribes as well which were not show at this fanfest.

It can mean anything I really hope they wait for the Tokyo Fanfest just because they haven't finished the male vieras default costume...

LOL no you guys are claiming we are getting Ronso as male instead, a race that IN THE FREAKING GAME had women??? Based on some dumb leaker? Ok. Y'all seriously lost the plot now.

I think he accurately predicted all four fights of the final Omega raid tier, and BLU, and Viera, soo....

Yeah I'm here for them adding Ronso if it has both. I just think people are being really silly right now. Why would they 1. Create concept art for male Viera. 2. They went through all the time to create male Miqo'te and female Roe for 2.0 and then... go and say "nahhh let's NOT!" and then 3. Replace the male with a race that actually has female models...? It's not gonna happen guys. We still have a long time until the expansion comes out.

And sorry. But I'm sure if you go through everything that leaker has ever said, some of it is wrong. And afaik all he said was there is a "lion race" which people then decided was Ronso? Nor did he say it was a gender locked lion race.

Aye it could, but I do remember them saying the NA fanfest they wanted to mix up how they announce things this time around. So I'd stay optimistic if you can. Most likely will show the other clan off too in Tokyo.

Oh definitely. Especially since in MMO culture a lot of content is tailored for female models. Thus they have much better options compared to males in general which IMO isn't really fair to male characters at all.

It's why I'll roll as a female very option by virtue of having options and looking much better then the male models.

I guess it's a win then, we also get bent ears. What else ?

[Jaywalker]

didn't they change this outfit because male fans though it was "too sexy" for a guy to wear?

I'm unsure? Most of the search info showed this. There was like one screenshot with him in a slightly thicker looking top:



but when I search screenshots I get stuff like this:



and then from Dissidia:




I think he might have multiple outfit options???
