What do you think about Miqo'te without facial markings?

[NekoMataMata]

I've been seeing a bit of hate for it in my home server recently, although none of it has been directed at me. I don't really mind, I'm not going going to scream racism like this is irl, but it has made me curious.

Do people not like Miqo'te without facial markings? I've been thinking of fantaing lately, not necessarily for the facial markings but for some other things. I'm thinking about changing that as well too and I'm curious to see what people think.

When i was catboy i debated going from seeker to keeper, but the lack of face marks made it look very weird. I think people taking those races and trying to make them as human as possible is just, why not just play midlander at that point?

I feel like they are necessary after being a Mithra for so long in FF11 (as I don't have them on my character D: )

When it comes down to it I doubt any significant amount of people really care whether you have markings or not.

I kinda wish I could have clan marks all over and not just on the face. I want stripes like a tiger, rawr.

[boopadoop]

i prefer no clan markings or that they could be chosen what they look like
are they supposed to be like the pattern on cats fur like stripes or dots? or something they apply? I dont even KNOW

My miqo'te character has never had facial markings of any sort at all since I first created her back in 1.0 (and I've kept her hairstyle/colour and facial features consistant the whole time). It's a personal choice for me, and I've never experienced any sort of hate or discrimination for it. If people are criticising you for not having facial markings, then blacklist them and move on, as they're not worth worrying about.

Marks or no marks, Miqo’tes are cute. I love my marks because they go very well with the color scheme of my character.

Everything I've seen has been in examines, which I feel is a bit weird? Nothing direct, and most of it's censored out with stuff like "-" or other icons so that you can use the placement of some letters and the spaces to know what they're saying. I'll try to find them again and take some screenshots later when I travel back home.

I assume it's not worth reporting though and like I said, it doesn't really bother me since it's not confrontational. It did make me think, and I wanted to see what other people thought.

This is the first I've heard about it. People really get upset about this?

I'm the one who plays my character and has to look at them for so many hours. Other people can do what they like.
