Male Viera... Unsubbing for now.

1: Bye, won't be missed.

2: Bout time the "not Anime-esque bishie pretty boy / anime edgelord" aesthetic got some representation.

Been in this game since the start of ARR, gender locked races aren't for you? Oh well, other games have had them, other games last, not the biggest deal, you'll just keep playing what you do like playing unless you unsub, which if you do, your money, your choice I suppose.

I just registered today to mine the salt. It's petty, I know, I'm a petty person at heart, but some of you guys baffle me. My question is, if you're unsubbing from the game because you didn't at all get what you wanted in regards to cosmetic choice, then how did you guys manage to play the game all these years without it initially???

I'm not trying to be facetious, I am legitimately confused. I'm starting to think that some of you have this hidden flair for the absolutely overdramatic.

Why unsub for a race ? Are you not happy to play the story ShB this summer ?

Yeah it’s pretty crazy, people are acting like they are removing content that’s already in the game or something, now that would be something to unsub over.

Some are putting some overdaramatic into it, but not all. ^^
But there is a reason why some react the way, the react.

Because like some said. On the one side the Devs said "We did not had free Ressources for male Viera.", but on the other Hand, they had Ressources for a complete different Race.
Some react to this, because of SE and the Devs constantly saying that the Game grows and they have more Money for more Content, but then they always mention ressource Limits.
They put more Cosmetics into the Mog Station and less into Events, but it feels like they now work on a even smaller Budget.
Then, when there is a large demand, they talk about limitations of ressources, but then later announce something that ate up even more Ressources that nobody asked for.
I remember how Diadem 1 failed and how people went to the "pls make the Dungeons more interessting. Diadem was horrible, please focus on good Parts of the Game to make them better.".
And then they again talked about ressources and limitations and later announced Diadem 2.

Yeah it’s pretty crazy, people are acting like they are removing content that’s already in the game or something, now that would be something to unsub over.

It is less this single reason, it is a combination of dissapointments over the last 2 Years.
A lot of Stormblood felt like replaying HW with a different Wallpaper. With all the weakneses that were already mentioned by tons of Feedback.
Eureka was a large dissapointment for a lot of Players.
Some Classes that played like a mess.
Streamlining all over the place, to make the Classes easier for no real reason. Some classes feel very lackluster now.
Turning Savage down to Midtier Content, because people wanted Midtier Content, but the Devs had no Idea what to deliver, so they made Savage easier.
Something that made nobody happy. The Raiders steamroll it and for the Midcore Player...they never wanted Savage to be Midcore.
The Bluemage was desined with no brain. "Make a Singleplayer class, that later requires other Players to get the Skills...and it felt like playing a Gacha. RNG everywhere.".

They are not unsubbing only because of the male Viera. They are unsubbing, because they feel like the Devs just do what they like and whatever the Community wishes, gets thrown right into the Trash.
And to Quote the Devs "1. Never forget the fand > without them, there would be no "us".
Nobody wished for Diadem 2, but we still got it and Yoshis only reaction to the Diadem BIS Weapon Topic was "Calm down people...".
Nobody expected him to apologize for that, but he could at least aknowledge, that the Idea was not that great and not tell the people to "Calm down." and then tell them, why their Opinion is wrong.

good, unsub. gets rid of all the self entitled players.

Lol yeah that's the point, you're paying for the game you're entitled to a good product, if that product doesn't meet your standards you have the right to complain and stop spending money on it...

Unsubbing over Male bunnies. The gaming community has hit a new low. Never mind a game has good content, game play, and a plethora of other things. But I can't play a male bunny so I will unsub. I think a lot of players need to take a step back. Unsubbing will do you some good.

Cool, do that, we'll be busy enjoying the new story and the new content.
