It does bother me sometimes. But what actually bothers me is the overt nature of it all. Like the Hyur Highlander captain who is obviously banging twin Miqo'te women in Highbridge. Isabela from Dragon Age 2 sometimes had more subtle innuendo than that.
I like that XIV has a mature vibe to it. Like how pirates in Limsa Lominsa aren't romanticized to be anything more than ale-drinking, foul-mouthed cutthroats, and don't sugarcoat what they do to their captive women. But it seems that a lot of the dialogue and events surrounding the Miqo'te are just all about them being prostitutes and pleasure flesh. There's nothing there (that I've seen) that builds on the scant amount of lore we know about them. But maybe that's true for all the races.
To be fair, there was that one quest in Costa del Sol to talk to some dancers on the beach, and all races (except Lalafell) were represented.
I dunno. I would have less of a problem with it if it was actually part of the lore that Miqo'te tribes were promiscuous or that slave culture was part of their lives. But as it is, it's just fan service. Don't get me wrong, I love me some fan service. I guess I just want some variety. Why aren't the Elezen or Roegadyn allowed to be sexy? Spread the wealth.
