Absolutely no more new races please

[NekoMataMata]

Sorry that you're having to read yet another thread about it. Someone has to say it though. The community needs to show restraint if Yoshi P is going to just hand them the reins here.

Viera and Hrothgar still can't wear the vast majority of hats, and every new race that gets added is going to add more for SE to keep up with.

I'm happy they're giving us female hroths, rounding out the races we have, but it's completely impractical to keep expanding the list of playable races eternally. It will come at a cost to every existing race as quality eventually starts to drop. Let's be happy and appreciate the races that we have currently.

We need community pushback against this. New races are like new jobs. They'd be a huge announcement for a new expansion, and someone at SE is aware of this. Even after Dawntrail they are likely going to look for community support for new races because these races are marketable regardless of the workload they might create for the devs. Please be reasonable and deny them that support for it, let them focus on other content and additions.

No. They don’t have to come immediately next expansion, but new races shouldn’t be off the table. It can be a healthy way to revitalize an mmo long into its lifecycle. Times change, and new ideas of aesthetics become popular.

Next expansion should absolutely focus on character customization before any new races are added. I 100% agree with this point that fans make on this forum, but I don’t agree when they instantly say that not having any races added in the future solves this problem for them. We can DELAY new races and focus on other improvements that are needed, and then get back to them later when It is a better time to do so.

Yes. I like the Female big cat, and I'm happy they are here ; but new races shouldn't be mandatory. I would prefer they spend this time on new mecanics, new activities, and to rework some roles (healer, PLEASE).

[Kuroka]

Well for now, no thanks... but coming 9 or 10.0? why not? they can do em on off times and slowly work on it.

We still need a fox furry race!

If we do get more races in the future, i very much hope they don't do the release of them like they did with viera and hrothgar. "one gender at the time"

[Momo_Kozuki]

Don't mind if they can pull it off.


Don't care if they decide not to.

[RaideDuku]

I don't mind if there are more races. I want them to get all the headgear working for Viera and Hrothgar, and more customization options for all the current races first. Then we can talk about more races. My guess is that will probably take awhile.

I think more races would be a welcome addition. And idk maybe they can slide in more facial customizations in the years between expansion (The graphical update and Xbox port probs took up most of their time) And continue with adding new races on each expansion.

The races in this game are great, but it was soooo hard trying to find enjoyment I this game until hroth came along. I like beast races, and we would have never had them if people weren't asking. Don't really care if they can't rock helmets, my face is majestic! I also wouldn't say no to another short race. Lalafell are great and all, but something cuter like loporits would be a blast for people to play I have no doubt.

It does seem like square is listening to every concern voiced though. They've steadily been adding more hair options and what not, and I can see more options after dawn trail drops since the community as a whole has been asking for this for awhile. It'll be like how WoW completely reinvented their character creation, but they had yearssss to finally hash it out. FFXIV is still a baby in comparison, give it some time.

I mean the person in charge of new races isn't handling mechanics, activities and reworking roles.
