Garlean Playable Race (?)

[Jandor]

So now the argument goes from “ha you can’t name a single garlean that uses magic,”to now it’s “oh, it’s not a potent magic spell so it hardly counts.” Are y’all serious? I just find it hilarious tbh that people are still arguing the “muh lore” or “muh immersion” when we got Male Viera and Reaper.People constantly said we wouldn’t get male viera because of lore or we wouldn’t get a dark job because wol is a goody two shoes. You’d think after these reveals people would start thinking wow, SE seems to just be giving out what the players ask for, regardless of lore. They’ve bent the lore multiple times before, there’s no reason they wouldn’t be able to do it again. It’s a trivial argument because if enough people asked for it, as seen with male bunnies, we’d get it. That’s how the game works.

My first argument was that it doesn't fit the story, because it doesn't.

That they can't use magic is another hurdle, a hurdle which is not removed by one instance of one Garlean casting one basic spell.
