I think I will just keep my char the way he is, but again my char is a hume midlander, the 3rd most popular. (in ffxi i was taru and hated being so small) So for ffxiv I just tried to model my character similar to how I look irl, i guess, generally speaking, I look like everyone else...lol

I always wonder how often this thought process carries over to real life..."There are too many white people here in my home country of Sweden. Â I think I'll move to Uganda, where I'll stand out more."

A class glut is one thing, because it potentially effects one's actual mechanical gameplay experience, with the lessened ability to get into groups with a particular role, etc. Â But race really shouldn't matter to anyone else but the player it seems to me (especially in FFXIV, where any racial advantages are really negligible), so my suggestion is that one goes with what makes them happy to play. Â As you can see, the majority of everyone else seems to be doing just that

If I were to guess, I would say it's simply a matter of trying to make your character different from the norm. Not necessarily stand out, but interestingly unique and not just a slightly different clone of everyone around you.
