Are you saying Miqo'te, Au Ra, or even Midlanders are "little girl characters"? I assume that is the case since you say "most popular", but that is a BIG reach. Au Ra are petite, but they look like petite women, they have the shape of an adult. If you are talking about Miqo'te or Midlander, they are very busty (relative to their size), and Miqo'te in particular have sizeable hips. They look like adults proportion wise, even if they can look young, they look like young adults, not to mention their height range is the size of an average sized woman, with the au ra being on the shorter side. I really hope you aren't implying what I think you are implying.Yah no, they specifically mentioned why they wont add shorter versions. A caveat is they also SPECIFICALLY mentioned they wont add child races, and we ALL know it's not because they don't want to show children in pain or agony. It's simply because people will use them for illicit reasons. This speaks volumes of the community, also it speaks volumes of the community why flat chested, little girl like characters are the MOST popular.
Why do you ask for this -Snip-? Are you not satisfied with having several children like races? Not everyone is into RP as a child in skimpy outfit. Please for the love of zodiark stop, this is how you build a stigma.
A viera is roughly 6' feet tall. Having them shorter wouldn't turn them into a child race. I personally like them at the height they are, but your's is a really reaching statement.

In FF12, Fran looked pretty tall so it wouldn’t bother me if the devs don’t want to make them shorter. In all fairness, it would definitely make them seem more feminine, even more than Midlanders.
I know that pain so well... Especially when you want freckles /and/ makeup at the same time. I am glad SE made eyeshadow built in for the Viera so I hope this means they'll extend that design choice to the older races if they ever go back and clean them up a little. Also am I the only one that wants them to sharpen some of the face paints? Depending on the race they can look REALLY pixelated. ):
While I agree that we don't need shorter Viera, short does not equate to young. I feel like you are conflating the two here. You can be an adult and be short. Just like you can be tall and beautiful and feminine.Yah no, they specifically mentioned why they wont add shorter versions.

Yoshida's response was directly related to people asking for prepubescent characters. Not short characters.

To be fair, tall most certainly does not equate to beautiful. Some people are ugly and tall, some people are ugly and short. It’s all up to their genes. Viera’s “Genes” make them look very pretty.While I agree that we don't need shorter Viera, short does not equate to young. I feel like you are conflating the two here.

Also, adding younger playable characters isn’t right, period. If someone wants that, they are welcome to play TERA or blade and soul.
I don't see how the lyns from blade and soul aren't "right". They seemed fine to me tbh
and just btw I'm not dog piling on you lol
I really don't care if viera min/max height is expanded or not.
I never said that tall 100% meant beautiful and feminine. I meant that you can be tall AND beautiful AND feminine. Just like you can be short AND an adult. These concepts are all mutually exclusive things, but the person I replied to seems to think short = child.To be fair, tall most certainly does not equate to beautiful.

You already have Miqo'te and Au Ra for your smol anime waifu needs. The taller races are for people who actually have taste and dare to be a bit different.
