    To go even deeper, this isn't the case either. Back in 1.x when Yoshi took over he sent us 1.x players a survey on the races WE wanted prioritized by the dev team. Of course the first set was to complete the missing genders which he commented on being a priority for him as well. The second highest voted race was Lupine, which he commented he knew he skewed b/c he put the example of Fran - we have been asking for Vieras for over 10yrs. He's known we've wanted Viera since 1.x in the style of Fran.

    ANYONE arguing that this is too much for the dev team or we're asking too much has NO idea about the history of this game or the goals YOSHI HIMSELF SET FOR HIS TEAM AND EXPECTATIONS HE SET FOR US THE PLAYERS. The other top contenders were a beastial race and third was mixed races (half elezen half hyur etc). The results of added races is completely exemplified in the first races they added; Au'ra (this was supposed to be the beast race, but the dev team admitted in a fanfest I believe that the design got neutered and it didn't meet their expectation of 'beast' race - thus Hrothgar later) and Hilda's appearance (half elezen race).

    Oh, wow! So it goes even earlier than ShB. I need to look more into Yoshi P's 1.x days. The more you know!
