Just because someone doesn't like the race doesn't mean they are being unappreciative. Many video game developers seek out and actively respond to feedback. Nor does simply not liking the race mean that you are abrasive and pessimistic. Maybe I could understand where you are coming from if this was just a random, off-topic discussion elsewhere on the forum. But it's not. This thread is a safe place for discussion, no matter what your opinion is on the new race.
When you use this kind of wording,' Even if Au Ra were not being released and Viera was good to be true, we'll have another complaints about how dainty they are. " It makes it sound like we are the bad guys for not liking the same thing as you do. If this was an Au Ra Appreciation Thread I could definitely see how we would be raining on your parade. As it is, no one is trying to smash your cake.
Oh please, I barely have bashed anyone in this thread and if you want to make me look like I am the villain of this argument - by all means. It's just a laughing matter to me.
There is a difference between "not liking it" with a simple opinion and "really really not liking it" by going over the details to take it to another level when it doesn't need to. So what if the character looks cute? I am sure at least 80% players want to play cute characters, 15% don't really care either way, and 5% are those who REALLY want ugly characters because they seem "realistic" enough.
The truth? We only have like 2 major servers for RP, and 1-2 minor servers that is growing with RP. And the rest of the servers and players don't RP and they look at cuteness over how creatures should look realistic. That's the sad truth. Some people will just come up and say "I play ugly characters and I am damn fine" but most of the others don't. They want to be materialistic, and beautiful in a game - and that's just the harsh truth.
Don't like Au Ra? Then sure. Feel free to rant about it. But don't expect other people to just be accepting your opinions, because in community and in life, people will always agree or disagree.
