Gender locked race?

Who will actually play as a Hrothgar? And not as a joke? I'm asking this honestly. Even if you enjoy their overall looks (no judgement), their overall character model seemed very rough and slapdash, especially compared to Viera.

I'll definitely be playing one as an alt. Whether I play one as my main depends on how I like the 'feel' of them in-game.

No male Viera = lore reasons
No female Ronso = lore changes

What can I say that hasn't already been said?

Just know SE, that I an SEVERELY unimpressed.

So, out of curiosity...how many of those upset over this intend to take their leave of the game and at what point do they intend to do so?

I wouldn't take my leave from the game yet, I only wanted female Viera in the first place, but I'm still really disappointed to see this sort of creative decision come out. Genderlocking just shouldn't have been entertained.

I'm not certain I'd go that far, since I've been deeply invested in the story up to this point.

But after today, I am VERY sorely tempted to just walk away.

A male Viera is a character I absolutely would have made an alt for. But I have no interest in playing as a large Roegadyn with bad posture.

Every time I see one of these races in Shadowbringers, I'll probably just roll my eyes, reminded of SE's poor decision. They will forever be "the badly designed race" in my eyes, no matter how much gravitas the game tries to place upon them.

I'm attempting to cancel my pre-order right this minute, actually. It's just I already claimed the earrings and minion so I am unsure if I will get banned for cancelling? I can't find info.... but yeah I'm not planning on continuing or playing at SHB launch either.

Probably after 4.56. Honestly, my static is getting bored, our main healer has considered quitting for months and it would give me SO much time to work on my Master's (Plus, wouldn't have to worry about taking my PS4 overseas). I could even go to Fan Fest in cosplay with Bunny ears! Hope I could run in to Yoshi-P and say "Oh, it's not the Bunny set, I'm just cosplaying a male Viera"
