The Men FFXIV Needs

[Garten]

I would like Hair Chest.. i am half a cat and don't even have a little on my chest T_T

[TheSuperior]

As a female roe player, I am in constant suffering when the modelers spend 3 months perfecting every physics feature on catgirls and lalas but our hair literally clips through our breasts if they're too big and the blocky hip to shoulder ratio makes so many glamours look like they just took the model, enlarged it, and slapped it on a plank of wood. Even if they added any of this, they'd get no support whatsoever. Glamours would look subpar and I swear the only reason we even get Roegadyn NPCs most of the time is because it was an afterthought.

I said it before and I'll say it again, Roegadyn aren't what people who like big races like, they're what people who don't like big races think people who like them like. Hrothgar are overall in a worst condition, but hey, at least I have a waistline now.

That's a good way to put it. I like tall girls, I like their unconventional beauty, but I hate how limited my options are when I want to dress my WoL in something new and oops, the model at the chest is tearing apart like a mod someone whipped up.

Actual gear, the same quality as a gear mod. You know, the stuff that's supposed to be shoddy because it's a hobby work.

I was a male Roe before going Hrothgar. I loved my Roegadyn. Making glamours for him was an absolute pain. I like to think it worked out because I got approached by Zepla once and she complimented my Machinist glam mid-stream (; _ ; thanks sis), but good bloody lord the experience is horrid. Do you guys have any idea how easily Roegadyn turn into Brunnhilde singing the opera when wearing any plate armour?! It's clear that Square treats Roegadyn like a meme race, when they really shouldn't.

Hrothgar at least can make more stuff work, but we're missing headgear anyway, and stuff clips through my mane. But I knew what I would get myself into when I chose to go lion at least. I was not expecting my waistline to be inexistant as a Roegadyn.

Yee, Roegadyn are too stereotypical for their own good. They're too easily memed and often are picked for caricatures. They're what people think men who are into bara like about bara.

And Hrothgar are also memed being the furry large bara cat daddies you constantly see online. I still prefer roes over hroth as they at least dont hunch over.

Not as much

Especially not in-game. Hrothgar NPCs are usually portrayed as either really cute, stern or valorous. Roegadyn are memed way too often, even now. Proof? Try our emotes, you'll see.

Try saying that when we have something like Mr. Face as a Hrothgar.

also, why do you think we keep asking Square to remove the hunchback, believe me, not even we like looking like we're constipated all the time...

Square should honestly look into it, since a lot of people have already manifested their displeasure at the hunch. At least make it a toggleable option. (Yes, it's edited >.> Atelier has the original one anyway, so it's not like I'm hiding what I wrote, just that I know people will jump on this and the mods aren't in the mood to read through the lines).

Frankly, a lot of male roe players treat their race as a meme race, from what I've seen. More players I've seen who want a more serious, masculine, character will play highlander or au ra instead, and if they don't like those options: midlander. I'd say the majority of the time I see a male roe, they are in some joke outfit, like with bright metallic dyes, a moogle head, paws, etc. With hrothgar, I see a bit less of that, but I do see a lot of.. other outfits, that I probably shouldn't go into too much detail on the forums.

I have a friend who treats their own roe the same way. Silly outfits and all. It's definitely a thing. Even they have told me that they view male oe as a "joke" race. Nothing wrong with that, mind you, but there's definitely a precedent. Their roe also makes one heck of a Santa Claus, I won't lie. They seem to enjoy playing the race and that's what matters. It also provides some entertainment for others.

I dont want to detract from the fun and interests of people, but I'm glad I'm one of the minor few whom play a roe male and take their character seriously. That means no meme or overly goofy glams for their jobs. We're a rare breed.
