Devs, can we please have a response?

I've just checked OP's history and ... you need to lay down for a bit, take a healthy step back and reflect on what it is you are doing, why this is and if this sort of obession is really that healthy. This is not me patronising you, this is me being serious with you. As for me, I'm not against the idea of male viera. But if they don't have any real concrete things to work with right now, or they just don't have the time or resources, then they shouldn't and focus on creating an actual game. A good expansion.

More people need to read this ...

Also, to clear some things up ...

1- "they had plans for Male Viera! The concept art!" That concept art is from back when they were deciding between Scaley People and Viera. They didn't even know how the Viera would look which is why there's art for Tall, short and straight up full furry looking Viera. That's how concept art works, you make a ton of stuff and show it to the person in charge and narrow it down over time. Just cause they thought about it doesn't mean they had hard set plans to do it .. that's the whole point of the concept art stage.

2- "They didn't expect this backlash!" actually yes, they did expect backlash. It was a hard decision for them but they decided to make the most people happy and do what's right for the game and devs.

3- " It's been almost a month, I humbly demand an answer that I feel entitled to!" Do you know what they meant by looking at the response to this? For all we know they're gonna wait even until after ShB releases to comment on this, they never said when they would respond nor did they promise a statement here.

People really need to look at the Happy Interview ..

"We did expect strong feedback on the gender lock. It was a tough decision, but we decided to do our best to meet both the player feedback and our development team’s vision. It will be very costly to add a new race or genders. So I won’t say no, but I would not like to set expectations high.
