Please change the height of the Veena!

[NinesAI]

Nope, small viera aren't lorefriendly and the dev team said they're already pushing themselves on what was an acceptable amount of workload modeling gear over the various races each patch cycle, hence the lack of gender options so I wouldn't hold my breath on them willingly adding extra work scaling gear down to another height range just to satisfy people who could roll one of the 4-5 other smaller races.

Community: WE WANT VIERA! GIVE US VIERA!
Yoshi-P: Okey.
Community: NO WE DON'T LIKE THESE VIERA, WE WANT DIFFERENT VIERA, WE WANT SMOL CUTE VIERA! NOT LORE ACCURATE TOL VIERA REEE!
Yoshi-P: /huh

You ultimately got what you wanted. Why can't you be happy with it.

In fairness it's kind of disingenuous to group the entire community of players into one voice for this. Different subgroups want different things, so of course you're always going to run into "We want x but also thing that is contradictory to x!" Situations when you group both together as though they're a singular group.

They are "short" compared to the classic Viera.

"Short" meaning what, exactly? If by their ears, then yeah. They're "shorter" than the Viera via ear length. That's all we know about the Feol Viera, though, as the game doesn't go into detail on how tall they are or anything and since the party/Vaan (he's pretty unintentionally rude) doesn't go "oh wow, they're shorter than the Viera we know!" it's safe to assume they're the same height as pure-blood Viera.

Nice lmao

I have no actual horse in this race I should mention. Tall viera are godly viera. Lol

[noxen]

I don't either, really, I'm just sick and tired of the people finally getting what they asked for only for them to piss and moan about it.

I'm probably biased in the grand scheme of things, though, because I love tall, buff, amazonian-type women.

This .. is pretty much every new thing we get.

but it's to be expected with a large playerbase. Someone is always not going to get exactly what they wanted.

Pretty sure that they have gear fitted for X size, be it 50% height and then it just scales up or down depending on which way player chooses. So, making the slider larger wouldn't require much of extra work at all.

I have no idea where the feol meme came from, weren't the feol a race in the FFXII spin off, Revenent Wings that was a mixed breed between aegyl (a race of winged humanoids) and viera, their only real defining characteristic was that they have shorter ears, but are otherwise the same as normal viera.

We also have many short races for females to choose from, midlanders, miqo'te and au ra are all short and dainty, do we really need the viera to join those numbers?

If you don't want to play a tall woman, that's fine, but don't pretend there were ever any short viera, one of their defining characteristics is their tall stature and their ears, I don't know why people were expecting anything less than a tall race of bunny women.

[Roda]

The existing demi beast races are just fine if you want to play a short character. Moonkeeper miqo'te are basically viera in culture anyway.
