Gender locked race?

[Fawkes]

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....

False, unfortunately. He predicted Blue Mage as Melee DPS and mistook Omega M and F for "Adam and Eve", which might come in the next alliance raids but that's yet to be seen at all. He got some things correct, but his word is not absolute. A lion in his avi could mean literally anything from Moombas to Ronso to playable Chimeras for all we know.

To be fair... It's very... VERY easy to see Omega M and F in production and think Adam and Eve. He also predicted Tsukuyomi, the return of Gaius, playable Alphinaud and the Monster Hunter collaboration (which people called him a troll for because it just sounded so fake). BLU was the only real thing he didn't get every detail of correctly, and even then in the end... he was still right. We got BLU as a pre-patch job.

Wasn't it said in the American lore panel or something (interview?) that they were planning on calling Omega M/F Adam and Eve, but then decided not to due to religious reasons?

A leaker who got other things right said Viera won't be the only new race. The leaker later changed his avatar to being of a rabbit and a lion. The Ronso was actually never mention by the leaker.

Though when asked if it would be Ronso, they said "close."

There was apparently an interview with Koji where he said they were originally called Adam and Eve, but changed because it might offend people.

I think it’s just a theory at the moment.

Edit:

Some dumb leakers ? He predicted blue mage being released with a patch

...oh

It's possible a lion-esque race could be added - but whether it's a playable race or just a beastmen race is uncertain.
In any case, I would totally be cool with another race, as long as it's not gender locked.
