So much this. When I saw the emotes I got annoyed. They are shy in a cute manner which literally had me going "NO THEY ARE AN AMAZON RACE THEY SHOULD BE BOLD AND STRONG AND...! Oh... that's why I'm a Roe... K another cutesy race... great =_="
Like you said.. "Balance is good" and like the Light in the Souce things are leaning a bit too much towards the "Cutesy" aspect but hey.. Cutesy sells.
I don't see any issue with their running animation. There are plenty of cutesy races already and I can't believe people are THAT bothered by a run animation but i guess different strokes....
I love all my emotes and running animations.
I don't find female Miqo'te running very feminine. It's pretty neutral, but determined.I have Hyur Midlander alts and they run in a very feminine motion, female Miqo'te run femininely as well but also on the really cute side which is fantastic because kitten are the sweetest race in-game.
Viera however are not cute at all when running, all other animations are fine but running is awful!...
A lot of people complain about various race's/gender's animations. It would be nice to be able to choose some of these.

There’s a little twist in the waist as they run that is a little more than the spine should allow for, but most of the animation is great as is. Tune that waist twist down maybe 1-5% based on whatever a motion capture rig suggests and that’s the ONLY change I’d make. And if the motion capture rig says I’m wrong, then leave it as it is...
