As a bunny enjoyer, I was a bit disappointed when I logged into the new patch and found that the new alternate sitting poses were identical to the ones that Hyurs had gotten.

One of these poses was this one:


It's a perfectly fine pose, and I'm sure Hyurs will get a lot of mileage out of it. However, it's very similar to an emote Viera already have!



It's really disheartening to see stuff like this, because it betrays how little attention this race seems to get when they make cosmetic releases like this. The whole point of the alternate seating poses is to have some variety to how your character sits, whether you are socializing, role-playing, taking screenshots or the like, and Viera players now getting two near identical poses feels like it was neglected.

This is a problem that likely wouldn't need much work to be resolved! The devs can instead pick a different posture to give to them. I noticed that Au Ra and Miqo'te have a "hands folded" sitting pose that would look really nice on Viera! or the Elezen hands on lap one. They wouldn't need to make anything new, just pick a different pose that doesn't resemble an existing one :/
