    Just wanted to push this into the thread so we can have a more detailed bit of the twitter message:

    Q12: Fans are very excited that Viera is a new race but I think that fans are hoping that we'll also get the male Viera as a playable character. Can you comment on that? Or even if they're going to be NPCs if not, or if we have to wait until Tokyo Fan Fest?


    A12: That's true we do still have the Tokyo Fan Fest ahead of us. zips mouth

    Edit: I know people were referencing it ChaseNetwork, but people were linking to an incomplete quote on Twitter. So I was just trying to get the full quote in here.

    Yeah, we got that intel already earlier in the thread. It's a big non-answer. There's professional journalists that took that as straight confirmation that we are getting a male Viera.
    They could just give us female locked Viera, and we would not have been lied to.
    They could give us male Viera as well, and we would have not been lied to.
    They could give us a male locked race in addition to female locked Viera, and we would be in shady territory. They have said "The Viera will most likely be the last race we add to FFXIV." Of course, this isn't an absolute.

    It's been over a year but wasn't there a similar 'non-answer' during the lead up to Stormblood's fanfests? I seem to remember something being left ambiguous that pissed people off majorly but for the life of me I can't remember what it was.

    That's because it's the most logical take ...
    Look, I love a good skeptic look at things that keep expectations in check but try as I will I just can not find one reason he wouldn't just say all Playable Bunnies will be female if that's the case.

    It's all just trolly set up for the next fest. IMO very much like how he keeps saying they're likely/ probably the "last race". I whole heartedly believe the Blufever leaks as he's been on the money about everything (and the like 2 things that weren't completely accurate turned out to be a date that was pushed back or names that they later decided to change. Seems like people think he worked on the translation team). The last 2 things to confirm are healer Dancer and 2nd new race. I personally see this talk as him setting up the 2nd race reveal cause why even bother to bring it up?

    Personally I have no horse in the race. I'm gonna play as a bunny girl no matter what and couldn't care less about the males. In fact a 2nd new race would annoy me seeing as Lions would imply "Big cats" and I play Femroe ... it's already hard enough knowing I'm jumping ship but to be tempted by a race of BIG CATS would be hell :/. (Who know's, maybe they're tiny cats with big cat features ... or a human sub race difference but for the current cats. The humans are, by all means, 2 different races but called sub races. I could see bigger cats that walk on tippy toes like the bunnies with big cat features being a new "sub race")
    But even I have to look at that and see that it's as much confirmation you can give without revealing it.

    Here's another no answer from a Game Watch Interview

    Q: The question everyone got the most excited for at yesterday's press Q&A was the male vieras. Since it's you, Yoshida, we think there'll be male vieras. But in FFXII, male vieras are extremely rare and never appear. How are you going to introduce them into FFXIV?

    A: Who knows? I'm a contrarian, so when you say "Yoshida would definitely do this", it makes me not want to answer *laughs* Actually, in the Return to Ivalice story that concluded the other day, there's a ton of lore about vieras in FFXIV. We coordinated with Matsuno-san to include most of the hints there, so please check that. Matsuno-san wrote wonderful texts for us.

    Hmm, has anyone got a compile of the lore from these? Usually, in 24/mans everyone wants to go go go and not read all the information. I honestly missed a lot of what Fran was saying, not to mention all the notes that are lying around.

    I hope the "they'll be the last race we introduce" not be a trollsy setup for "but we'll introduced this male-only race 5 minutes earlier, thus keeping Viera as the last one"
