    It would make more sense than someone actively deciding to animate those awkward dances, anyway.
    I'd say it's just as bad for them to have seen someone "dance" like that and go "that'll do" and add it.

    Most of these were made 10 years ago.
    I'm just thankful we have multiple dances.

    Me too. The Moogle dance has been my new default for a while now.

    I love my lala /dance emote.
    The male lala one is good too, but mine is cuter.

    Every other race has awful dances.

    It seems to me the default dances are supposed to be just a basic dances almost anyone could do.

    I do like that one too. That and the Sundrop Dance.

    I know the females have a butt wiggle, I haven't seen the male one.

    If they're going for a simple dance at least give us some body movement.

    I'd rather have something like this:

    than goofy foot shuffling

    Edit: I'm not trying to Rickroll everyone, I just think of something like that when I think of overly simple dances.

    Yeah I think male Elezen is probably the worst. They do like a weird awkward foot shuffle like someone they don't like told them they had to dance to get to the punch bowl and was like "there, I danced, good enough?"

    No... no it isn't.

    I do like fem Au Ra, fem Miqo is cute but yeah it's also literally just spinning one way then the other, and while I do like Viera, it is also just spinning with arm movements similar to some dancer abilities.

    Some are decent, a lot are meh or bad, and they don't loop. I stick to my unlocked and mog station dances now. :P

    I didn't even know it was possible for people to have such wildly different definitions of decent. :P

    You haven't been on these forums long enough or have turned on the news lately.
