Child-like characters?

[MikkoAkure]

I don't really see anyone arguing except the OP that actually wants playable children characters in the game. We're basically just arguing over the reason SE stated and some of us are pointing out the flaws in their logic while giving more logical reasons why SE would never do that. Some of you believe corporations at face value, while some of us are more cynical of corporations.

Like another thing to point out is if they didn't want people to play as children, why did they let us glamour as Ryne during the halloween event?

I think wearing NPCs as costumes in a limited event is different from actually playing them permanently in actual gameplay and that sort of rolls in to what I said above.

At this point I feel like trying to make me or the other people who disagree with this thread understand the point-of-view of someone who is OK with playing a race like Padjal, or allow character creator to make yourself look as young as Ryne, is almost like trying to explain color to someone who is blind. People have strong opinions and this thread is not going to go anywhere and should just die at this point since there’s nothing to gain by it and SE has made their stance.

Most of us arguing aren't trying to make you change your minds on that because we agree with their decision.

But, we are trying to point out SE's hypocrisy on the statement they made and shed light on the real reason it'll never be implemented. They have limited resources, and it would never make them the most amount of profit. They can't even spare the resources for the new races. Their PR statement about it sounds a lot better then going, "Oh hey, yeah that will make us lose money, we only care about money, so we aren't going to do that."

Edit: This thread is pointless I'm going to let it die now.

Sweet heavens @Ftail is one of the people who get it!. I came in this thread from the start stating, I don't care for child race but for another small one. I stated my background on why I like these types of characters and even how I really don't think PR has anything to do with it especially with all the entertainment in the world that uses kids or small folk all the time. Later on, I finally went into detail on why I would not care if a child or another race that is close to it got added into the game by pointing all the flaws with this community and what's in-game. I already said everything that was needed to be said. You can read every post and see how we got here. Me going in a full circle on this is not going to help.

There were interesting insights on how some would like to change things to smooth out those flaws. So that lovely PR statement from SE can actually be solid. And I appreciated those comments. I knew I would get some typical comments but it scares me more on how many are willing to ignore those flaws and then continue to state another one.

But don't' worry, I'm done. No more hills. I said what needed to be said and others chimed in to show that they also fully understood what I pointed out and where I was going.
