Gender locked race?

[InkstainedGwyn]

I wasn't around for this, but I have read about those bunny-girl outfits from the Gold Saucer initially being female-exclusive, and how there was such an unexpected outcry from the community over it that they soon decided to let males wear them, too.

Now that they're adding an actual bunny-girl race to the game, I don't think they'll go about it the same way. I think they learned from that experience, and will be making males an option right from the start.

To be fair, they also said that the male developers were "too uncomfortable" to design the outfits, and that they were handing them to the female designers.

Were they comfortable designing the awful looking Paissa and Carbuncle Houses?

I KNOW, RIGHT.

How fragile.

lol what design?
It's exactly the same as the original female only version.
They basically just.... removed the lock.

Anyway,
I don't know if this have been mentioned before, but I'm hoping that the reason they hold the reveal of male viera is because there will be an important male viera msq character with unique model (a la aymeric/gosetsu/hien) who will be present in the full ShB trailer (perhaps in the extension of Urianger/Y'Shtola scene?), and they don't want to reveal the full trailer yet until JP fanfest.

I mean they had to model, uv, texture, and weight the outfits to fit the males' bodies. "Design" was a bad word, but they did have to develop them.

Thing is you all don't ask, you demand they give it.
Also make threats I don't know how many times during the marriage dispute how many threaten to cancel subscription because they didn't have gay marriage.

They gave it then you all weren't happy, you wanted more and more and more and if you didn't get it you demand more and more.

I want something but I am happy with whatever they give me, I don't demand it and if I were SE I would stop handing this out because you don't appreciate what they've done you just ignore it and go to what you want next.

and if you don't think so, I see comments in here " I thought they learned their lesson" so we are teaching them a lesson if that ain't a sign of an attack I don't know what is.

I mean...if being a bunch of hyper-aggressive jerks gets me my man bun, I say keep up the threats!

Yes, yes I'm aware I'm being VERY selfish.

Me too. Why should I be complacent and give a company money if they don't give me what I want to buy? They have these forums so people can make their opinions known. Sometimes people come off as aggressive, and then when they don't get what they feel they are paying for they will get really upset. Just look at how WoW players reacted when they released some pig mount for the Chinese New Year but chose to lock it behind a paywall instead of including it in the yearly seasonal event. They were more than justified in their reaction-imagine if this Halloween they released a new costume but put it on Mog Station instead of allowing us to unlock it for free like always. All that aside, it's 2019, so let's leave gender locked races and marriage restrictions in 2002 along with the other broken concepts from FFXI that don't work in a modern MMORPG like FFXIV.

God forbid that people want to be satisfied with a product they pay money for.
