Something I found annoying when I first started playing 14 was that they changed the character of many of the races.

On FFXI Mithra acted and moved in a very cat-like manner, their stances and animations were very different from every other race and gave them a wonderful character. On FFXIV Mi'quote are basically just human races with a fluffy tail and some ears, they have none of the magic mithra have.

Are there any plans to change this at some point and infact does anyone that still plays a mi'quote that played a mithra in XI see this as a bad thing?
