    gentle reminder that while lalafell npcs are adults (along with the pc being at least implied to be one if said pc is a lalafell) that they entire race is quite literally, described as "child-like"
    regardless of how old a lalafell is there is no doubt that they are at least physically, a child! and while the game itself pokes at not so savory topics involving lalafell it should also go without saying that enjoying these kinds of things with lalafell is, wrong. to say the least.
    cant believe we have to go over this over a silly chair in a game but it is how it is i guess!

    I love how people now realize what the lalafells are for japanese people (yes, this game is made by people of japanese culture).

    Just like miqo'te race and the au ra "doll goth". Is a chair, for lalas. Just like there's a stool for lalas too (lalafellin step stool), so they can reach higher places properly, but that thing is from ARR, so you guys just accepted it, but now "omg they added a lalafel chair like if we were kids, they are treating us like mascots" YES BECAUSE YOU ARE MASCOTS, that's what is fanservice, miqo'te exist for the same reason, au ra too, everything is fanservice in a Final Fantasy game that just pull FANSERVICE FROM OLDER FINAL FANTASY GAMES.

    You aren't your character, if you feel this way, seek professional mental health.

    I’m a bit tired of non Japanese people always trying to explain Japanese culture like they know it. That’s like my white self trying to explain Mexico without any input from the people themselves. Weebs really need to stop assuming they understand the culture without having lived there, or of being of Japanese descent. We know nothing other than the media we consume from Japan. Even just visiting once, does not tell us all the little nuances that we don’t see everyday, or a lifetime of growing up there. You don’t know anything other than public cultural exchange. If you are Japanese, I am sorry, but I’m just sick of white people doing this. We know nothing.

    As a person who can’t sit comfortably in cars, airplanes, buses, most public seating, and let alone even drive without pedal extensions, this chair sucks. Lalafells aren’t babies. Adult people who are short aren’t babies. People with dwarfism like me Irl are not babies. Stop infantilizing short people.

    This chair and anyone who defends it are ableist, and not understanding the privilege that comes with being of normal, or taller height.

    You are mixing real life and a high-fantasy game, do you realize the problem is not what is happening in the game, the problem is that you are doing a 1:1 extrapolating it to real life, right?

    Plus IDK what is all this "infantalizing" lalafells when literally their description is "child-like" both in lore and in the game quest related to some side-quest of allagans.

    I'm European, we have mixed genes, we don't consider ourselfs as "white" and if you come here claiming or telling that to anyone you would easily get in jail for a night (you know, something that happened in Europe), plus, I'm southern Spaniard, so I'm not white, and on top of that, I live in a port city that date from the 250-340 BC, so my genes are a mix of egyptian, roman, greek, muslim, iberian, visigoth. And on top of that, my mother is japanese.

    And I didn't went explaining the japanese culture, I only said that is used as mascots because of the fanservice, a fanservice that works since the 90's
