I've softened to their appearance, especially as more people do comparisons, and their height seems more on par with female viera. I'd probably make my alt one too, better than having two female vieras who look very similar. Hopefully their bodytype turns out pretty good for armor sets, and outfits. I've always liked playing both male and female in games. It gives me a lot of options for distinct glamour, and if I liked the look of male viera on my alt, he would mostly be for glamour

I'm sure your boyfriend will love male viera, if he can get over their limitations. That will be the biggest hurdle for players who haven't yet suffered what will be two and a half years of female viera limitations. I really hope SE kicks into high gear and really starts updating viera during EW. Really hoping for some new hairs on EW launch for females too. This would be a great time for him to start playing FFXIV as well, with the current story arc soon coming to a close. It'll be like a fresh start for many players, new and old.
I see you made the switch again! Nice to see the avatar I first met, lol.

I’m hoping DESPERATELY for new vista hair. I can get over the hat thing fairly quickly, but the limited options gets really... upsetting lol.

My boyfriend already made his main avatar character data using my PC, he chose a male Au Ra, but he’s already stated his desire to make a male Viera alt. Can’t wait for the benchmark to come out so we can at least see what we’re looking forward to!
