I personally know a huge handful of women that are thrilled to have female Au Ra designed as they are and would absolutely have not played them if they were the large and bestial designs that other people want.

If I decide to race change or roll anything new at all, probs going straight to male Au Ra. As it stands I don't have a reason to abandon either of the two best races (lala and highlander) nor the will power to pick up another alt.

A few of my friends are rushing toward the ladydarguns like there's no tomorrow. I'm considering having a female rah-rah in addition to my boy rah-rah as well, because I really love how they look.

Them haunted eyes. That brittle, yet dangerous air about them. Eeeee

^Pretty much this + femRoe. I love the male Au Ra aesthetic and thought that I might actually fantasia into it.

.... but I realized I like Lalakage too much and I just can't alt.

The original thread is filled with this sort of testimonial.Â I wouldn't play Au Ra anyway, I don't think, but I certainly understand it.

In that sense I'm part of the data set that SE used to reach the conclusion that the more feminine females are preferred.Â I would still preferred they not bend them that way, but what can you do? Smile

V'aleera · **03-17-2015, 03:44 PM**

SE has said they took desires to look more beastial in consideration while making the female Au Ra. Maybe it will be enough to satisfy people who prefer that aesthetic over the dainty Hyur-with-horns we've already seen, maybe it won't. I am reserving judgment on that until the benchmark/character creation stuff is released.

Thank you for literally saying all that I was saying.Â I really do appreciate that!

All credit and discredit for it goes to SE.Â We may disagree on our own judgement of the decision (that's personal opinions for you!) but I really didn't think that saying SE was responsible for a decision that they made could ever be so controversial.

Does the discredit go to SE for basing a decision based off player preference? Because I don't think somebody could really blame them for going off the preferences of their playerbase unless one held the belief that SE shouldn't listen to the playerbase on things like this.

300% yes. I didn't even know they existed (taking a break from the game), two people I knew linked me the reveal about two seconds apart with 'THIS IS TOTALLY YOU'. And they were so right. That basically sealed me coming back (that and astrologian.)

What can I say? I have a particular aesthetic that I really, really like. I was even more excited to hear about the 'demon' influences because that can lend a really interesting air to a character.

Creepy vacant eyed chicks with promised diverse customization options are my aesthetic. She's going to ride on the shoulders of her giant husband and gore people with her flippin' sweet horns. I have a crap ton of preliminary sketches to compare to the CC when it comes out and a loose backstory written up that'll be changed varying on lore. So, yeah, 100% on board with that train.

Honestly, Mister Helix, I feel like you have not read anything I've said in this entire thread.

Clover did upon seeing the females, I didn't upon seeing either but now we have an idea that I am REALLY looking forward to.

Here's the thing.Â I disagree with you.Â I do not care for the way they have characterized Female Au Ra.Â I have my reasons for such, which I have expressed.Â I don't think they're sinister.Â I don't think they're stupid.Â I don't think they've made a bad decision.Â I don't think people who disagree with me are wrong.Â I simply do not care for their aesthetic choice.Â Will it work out? Yes, no doubt it will.Â Are many people happy with it? Yes, yes they are.Â Should that change my opinion? I don't really think so.Â

I'm happy for those looking forward to Au Ra, its always good to have things to look forward to, and SE deserves all sorts of credit for coming up with content and additions that have people so excited.
