Gender locked race?

Those statistics you posted were insightful; I knew Roe was pretty bad in regards to the population but I didn't realise they were that abysmal. Elves need love as well it seems.

I thought you were done here.

Lucky bancho server readings breaks down every servers population by race and clan using the lodestone. Xaela are consistently more popular than Raen. Midlanders are consistently more popular than Highlanders...and most male races.

Thank you, I had never seen the other bits of lucky bancho on each servers breakdown, was only aware of the most commonly released breakdowns of current overall populations etc.

Still, upon looking at this info, male highlander are certainly far from being underplayed, with many servers having them at a healthy population or competitive population with other populated males.

There's also a lot of complaints about highlanders regarding their faces that would likely see an uptick in population if they were given some customization attention (eyebrows being a big complaint).

I could easily see them taking miqote males and mashing them with highlander/au ra to make a new race that would undoubtedly be successful. Of course they could do the same with Viera male as well.

That looks back around to my point of “why make a second race?”. The old concept art was already a muscular rabbit man.

Give them all to us:

I'd love to play something along the lines of a beefier Miqo'te!

Another beefy race in general would be appreciated. Roegadyn don't interest me since they're too big. Highlander men also have the unfortunate situation with their eyebrows in dire need of addressing, which doesn't appear to be a plan anytime soon.

Although perhaps not the most original approach they could take, they could opt for a face similar to Byakko's:

Ugh, those eyebrows.... and the facepaint eyebrows are just creepy and huge.

I agree, the game does need another more muscular race regardless of how they implement it. Only two options for muscular while there exist 4 for slim plus lalafels is a bit imbalanced.

I actually like Byakko's body type and facial structure. I would actually find this very much acceptable, in regards to both Viera and Bara Cat.

Pffft, what if Bara cat is just a joke - it's actually fat cat mount.

SE saw Blizzard's panda race and was like "I want in on that fat animal magic".

If Bara cat was like the Lupus/Pantera of Bless or our Byakko I'd be alright with that. I think the problem is the word Bara means something and since I'm not... into that.. all the google results just look one step away from needing to be put behind an age gate lol. Wonder if given some hair mane options and a glamour helmet horn if you could make a cat like that look like a Ronso lol.

There's 3 if you count au ra, which I do. However, we could do with a muscle tone slider.
