I expect I'll be in the minority here, but Viera on this end. I absolutely hate just about everything in the design of the Miqo'te. The Viera at at least make a little bit of sense and their animations were never something completely ridiculous because of the animal add ons. I cringed every time I used an emote on my Miqo'te back in 1.0. Their faces are all chubby, their eyes are huge for their face, their noses are TINY (despite their claim that they have the smell of a bloodhound. That's not how that works?) and I have a lot of issue with their general focus on cuddly kittens, instead of dangerous feral cats that you would assume would come with being in a traditionalist culture.
Viera honestly came off as an actual race that would have no problems existing in that world, rather than a "CATGURL" gimmick that a lot of games try to get in on. I mean, if the Viera lost their ears and their long nails, they'd still be a race all of their own and it would still make sense. The cat ears and tail are what makes just the Miqo'te, for the most part and are just a pudgy, weird, human without them.
Even outside of the general character design, the Viera were an adaptive, solid race.
So... Yeah. I would be pretty happy if they actually added them in to the game. FFXIV was intended to be Ivalice Online, anyway. So, it'd work.
