Nu Mou Beast Tribe captured them and made a Viera stew to quench their Primal's hunger/thirst for rabbit meat/blood.I won't say exactly what kind of struggle we will be involved in within the Greatwood, but yes, it's absolutely possible for them to have us go through the entire area and never see a single male Viera and there's plenty of absolutely valid reasons as to why that may be.
My position on it at this point is that I'd be fine with a gender-lock if they committed to later adding the opposite sex for each race.
When the game's story becomes self-aware:
Aye, as long as they add them in - I'm fine. I've waited a long time for male Viera, I can wait a little longer. My only concern will be story, but as I stated before, if the story is subpar due to the exclusion, welp, a complaint is in order - if it's amazing, I won't complain about the story of course and instead praise it but still suggest the adding of the male viera and female buff khajiit.
Based on the blurb for the figure, some combination of enough ambient aether and the worship of the ancient Ivalicians caused her to gain self-awareness and eventually manifest as a primal using herself as a vessel.They do. At the same time, I don't see why they need to have as many of those as they do male beasties.
Also, an interesting point about Ultima's design is that it may tie into Hydaelyn's (lower body aside.)
Also look at the similarities to Zodiark's position (in my sig) and the crown they both share for her statue version. Although Ultima in the dungeon was just a primal-like being which gained sentience - and great power - I have a suspicion that it somehow glimpsed Hydaelyn and emulated her form. Ultima in XII was characterised by her hubris and rebellion against the gods, and that would give it similar undertones in FFXIV.
Which could also leave an opening for her worshipers to have defined the look of her upper body, perhaps with an image of Hydaelyn in mind.
When the game's story becomes self-aware:
Agreed. If they're at least stated as being on their way to being playable, I'd be fine with that news even though it isn't as ideal as releasing both genders at once. However, if they keep playing this ridiculous game of not being up front with what's coming in this expansion then I can't spend money on it without knowing that what I want is there, or at least on its way in subsequent patches.Aye, as long as they add them in - I'm fine. I've waited a long time for male Viera, I can wait a little longer. My only concern will be story, but as I stated before, if the story is subpar due to the exclusion, welp, a complaint is in order - if it's amazing, I won't complain about the story of course and instead praise it but still suggest the adding of the male viera and female buff khajiit.
I hope for everyone's sake that it doesn't take them as long as it took them to implement bunny suits for men. I honestly think if male Viera is not coming Yoshi will give his reasoning at fanfest. Can sub or unsub then.
Yeah, I was already suspicious of SE putting 'early preorder' content into the game. Can someone confirm if you use the early preorder code, that you can't actually cancel your preorder? I doubt this is part of the whole gender locked race thing, but it did have me cock a brow.
