+--- Thread: VIERA vs Miqo 'te ? (/showthread.php?tid=3482)
RE: VIERA vs Miqo 'te ? - Naunet - 08-12-2013
Some serious miqo'te hate in this thread! ;.; I will not be ashamed of my choice...!
Honestly, I really don't like female-only races, so I very much hope Viera never make it into ARR, unless they make males.
What I would really love to see is a dragon-like race, similar to the aman of TERA. Roegadyn just don't cut it for me in terms of massive, powerful women - not like my fantastic amani ladies in TERA. I will miss them.
[edit] Oh, or some kind of beast-type race (like the wolf picture on page 2, or whatever), but the females should not be freaking super models with boobs. >_> If they do a bestial race, I'd love it to be done a la charr from GW2.

Fran is one of my favorite FF characters so I would definitely welcome the Viera, As far as introducing males. They can go the "mean" route they eschewed with the Miqo'te. Push the dimorphism to the limit.Â
Huge leg muscles, noticeable teeth, longer ears. Badass bunnies. Automatic Dragoon candidate right there.

Shhh, it's okay. Just because there's a differences in opinions doesn't automatically mean that there's shaming going on.

I remember this poll, I had voted for the viera-like race.
I've always enjoyed the lore of the viera people and think of them as being very different from the miqo'te. They actually loose a piece of themselves when they leave the Wood and as time goes by their soul's seem to gray, which is evident from the darkening of their ear tips.
Despite there being male viera depicted in the lore of the race, SE thought that it would be too 'weird' to possibly have male viera as an option for ARR. Which I think is rather silly, especially since they finally added male miqo'te to the list.Â
Other than having the viera, I wouldn't mind seeing a burmecian/clerian inspired race from FFIX. I've always had a love for Freya. Or perhaps a race inspired by the ronso of FFX.

Oh, those are neat looking. Kind of give off a Redwall vibe.

I found some concept art where they actually showed what they envisioned both a Samurai AF and Male Viera would look like, it's pretty cool actually.

Isn't that Miyamoto Usagi? I remember his comic and cross-overs with TMNT. xDD

As a FF newbie, I don't know any of these races.
I -would- like to say that if they made Miqo'te more feral and 'tough' I'd be a happy player.
My Miqo isn't a sex-kitten... don't really like living under the premise she is based on her race or the fact she's tribal. Its a different mindset... that is all. She's not submissive and believes there IS more to life than being a kitten-makin' machine.
Kinda makes me think the Miqo'te are FF's version of the Twi'lek from SW... only with less slave RP. *coughs*
Oh and props for TMNT reference. I used to love those guys when they first came out (the CGI ones now make me cringe). I even painted a drawing I did of Donatello on the back of my little brother's jean jacket way back when... erm... well I devoted time to my artwork. *blush*
