Male Viera... Unsubbing for now.

[Nihility]

/My future Viera self waves bye bye.

On a more serious note, I am personally, and selfishly happy that there doesn't appear to be any male Viera incoming. I always gravitate towards playable races in games that only consist of female members (e.g., Asari from ME). But if I step back from selfish mode a little bit, I can see how including male Viera would have resulted in a higher number of happy players overall, since I assume that I am in the tiny minority for whom having male Viera would actually make us less happy---and even then, it's the kind of less happy that we could probably live with.

That's really the most sympathy that anyone who is upset over this is going to get from me, though, as I just can't relate/empathise.

I'm actually fairly happy they are as they've always been too.
All these upset people seem to be upset that something that never existed outside their own imagination of what it might have been didn't materialize.

Even the concept art matching the female viera is not even remotely close to what all these complaint threads are claiming it would have been

And we already have the ability to make diminutive males in miqote and midlander and even elezen can have those features in a taller race
And we already have the ability to make super muscular women with roegadyn and Highlander.

And lalafel you can't even tell if it's male or female unless you know the animation differences if androgenous is the goal

The claims of needing to fill a gap are just aren't true outside the people that openly just say they want a character that looks like it's from underage hentai
