What if we were given another tiny race

Unironically male viera.

Before we got more details on it, I figured it'd be neat if they did the opposite of what they did with au ra, in this case making women tall and amazonian whereas males are smaller and uh... cuter? Idk.

Aside from that, I'd be down for some FFXII-looking moogles, too. I don't like how amorphous and freakish moogles look in this game. Their huge heads and tiny extremities remind me of an infant with phocomelia, which ain't a pretty sight.

Did I order some cajun fries from Five Guys? 'Cause you seem to be a potato with good taste

I want to play as a Miq'itten like T'kebbe Morh and Khloe Aliapoh

Sorry. Not going to happen. Too many creeps in the world.

Have to admit, I laughed.

Literal children are different from established adults.

One can only hope.

I know this is a pipe dream, but.. fae. Maybe bigger than what's in Il Mheg, but smaller than the Lala.

Something i noticed about the Fae is how high quality their models are with emote, texture quality and general animations.

Honestly, it wouldn't take much work to bring them up to player character standard.
Make them a bit bigger and have them hover for their walking and sprinting animation, but stand on the ground to do attacks so they can use all the same animations the other races do.
Being gender neutral, just have them use male equipment.

I'd also like to see Gria. They're described as being small, So fitting between Lalafel and minimum Au Ra wouldn't be a stretch.
They're also Ivalician so their home technically already exists. I'd also be perfectly fine with the wings they have just clipping through gear the way tails do.

They do, it's very appropriately Japanese of them.
My comment wasn't about whether I felt they could or should add or remove any race from the game, it was pointing out that someone's logic was sound (even if that makes SE hypocrites).

Glad Lala's got in before the ethical concerns.
I hope that all this doesn't stop them from adding Lala/Taru taru/Lilty like races in future games.

He's explicitly referring to young looking characters. Miq'ittens are quite literally Miqo children and exhibit very childlike features without even considering height.
Lalafells can't be mistaken for a child when viewed without other visual cues. Gnomes in WoW are the same, they look distinctly mature in their facial and body features. The only thing "childlike" about them is their height. Real life humans attest to the fact that adults can be smaller than children, height and busts both.

As long as a small race essentially looks like a tiny adult, there's nothing stopping the addition of more small races or barriers to the existence of Lalafells.

Yes he is.
We're just not in agreement on that Lala can't be mistaken for children without other visual cues.
I think the character creator is robust enough that you can make Lala look like toddlers if you want.
I know in my brief stint on Balmung I saw people doing exactly that and then using the /playdead emote to EPR with them.
And some of the Lala running around look (to me) like they came from some child beauty pageant.
