    The problem is not adding Viera and Hrothgar. It's that now that they're here, every future gear will take more time to implement to include their body type, as will every future skill and emote. Which can be an issue if they want to keep the current pace for patches.

    Frankly, since races offer nothing gameplay wise, I don't even understand why they're so adamant on adding new ones. XI lived peacefully with its 5 races from the very beginning.

    Y: I usually compare FFXIV with a theme park, but the Forbidden Land of Eureka won’t be a place where everyone would want to go. For example, there are people who don’t want to go to horror houses because they don’t see the point in getting scared on purpose. For example, on a date, the boyfriend might want to invite the girlfriend to go the horror house, but the girlfriend just doesn’t seem to find it fun. In other words, it’s not like everyone wants to go to the horror house, but there are people who just love the adrenalin rush they get from it. Think of Eureka as something like that.
