Who else is race changing?

[Kanehana]

I'll have to admit that race changing sounds enticing, but I'm far too attached to Au ra to want it that badly. (Instead I'll just admire my FC mates' Vieras and Hrothgars instead, it'll be pretty entertaining)

I'm so conflicted. I really like my current character, but I also like to try Viera. I suppose I could create an alt, but I really don't want to.

A theorist loves theories.
A taoist practices tao.

But if you love to change your race, does that make you a racist? *thinkingmeme*

Well, I suppose a racist favors a particular race to the detriment of other races.

Not this time. If there was a little cute male viera coming with ShB, I would change to it. But I'll just save the fantasia and keep my lala boi.

[Conquistadork]

I'm still thinking about it, but I'm too attached to my lala... prob I'll switch too see if I like it and change back if I don't.

I've been a Moon Keeper since the CBTs of 1.0, but I do have a bunch of alts. With the introduction of Viera I'm finally going to mix things up at the race level. I remember back in 2012 when people were theorizing about adding Viera I was so excited about the idea, but quickly gave up on it and was happy with my cat. My current character will exist in name and look on an alt, but my main already has a fantasia waiting.

Just wanted to share this tip to anyone who is considering a change but isn't sure about some character details. A few retainer fantasias are cheaper than a real fantasia and faster than making alts, although you won't be able to test the voices this way. If you race change your retainer first, you can summon it in many different areas to see what the skin color and other features look like in different lighting. You can also try on your glamours.

I was going to because I have been wanting to be a Viera since they were first mentioned waaaaaaay back when they did the player base poll after 1.0 ended, you know, when the game was on the edge of extinction and all they kept saying over and over was that they were going to let player feedback rebuild and continue to shape the game... LoL Yeah, that lasted till the game became a success... Anyway, I'm too disappointed to race change now...

The Viera feet armor, just one more major disappointment to add to the list of FFXIV screw ups! I just don't know why they led us on about it... First we are told back before HW that Viera will never be added unless the feet can be done correctly! Perfect!

Then we get a trailer showing the Viera for the first time and Hallelujah, they are standing on their tiptoes wearing spiked high heels! Awesome! *squee*

Then we get to see Dancers concept art and what is it, a Viera with what? Spiked high heel shoes on... YES!!!

Then comes the actual gameplay video showing them wearing the new armor sets, what do we see, freakin flat ass feet just like every other race! Are you kidding me?!?!

I understand that you can't go back and remake all of the old foot armor in the game, nor should you, no one in Eorzea even knew they existed untill now. But I find it utterly absurd that all of the new foot armor from this point forward is not made to accommodate them! It doesn't bother me they took the easy way out and have no tails, easy explanation, they are covered up by armor. It only mildly irks me that you can't do a work around for the head armor like you did for the Au Ra... But this feet issue is totally UNACCEPTABLE!!! This is a major element that sets them apart and makes them special! I have never liked the feet armor in XIV... 99% of the sets are flat footed and boring! I just knew that was finally going to change with the release of the tall, statuesque Viera... Such a huge let down!

With the millions S-E makes from subs alone, not to mention MogStation sales, extra retainer cost, and a premium companion app fee, yet something as simple as adding a spiked high heeled version of foot armor can't be done for your PAYING players? Funny how FFXIV has 16 million players and S-E can't, but a FREE TO PLAY game like Tera with a player base so small it was just downgraded to ONE server, can and does, with no problems at all! Really? Truly sad, pathetic, and lazy!
