Developers Blog ~ Female Roegadyn

[Vareal]

---

Apparently, the development team did a live stream on Nico Nico Douga. During this live stream, they benchmarked A Realm Reborn on four different PC's: low, mid and high spec as well as a Windows 8 Touch tablet computer. But the more interesting note is the screen shot that's on the Developers blog. It features six different characters, two of which are a male Miqo'te and a female Roegadyn. It would also seem there is a tail-less Miqo'te. From what I know, this is the first look at the female Roe aside from the art work. The picture also shows off some new armor and two possible pets?

 

Anyway, here's the image but feel free to check out the Developers Blog for yourself.

Tailess miqo'te is highly unlikely. It's more likely that he has a short tail and it is hidden behind a leg.

 

Here's more from that livestream.

[Gerik]

They're not that unlikely! Look at what happened to poor sweet Reiry!

 

I used to be a Miqo'te like you, then I took a knife to the tail!

[Vareal]

It would be interesting if you could hide your tail, like the way you can hide your helmet. That would be perfect for Isaac seeing as he keeps his tail wrapped around his waist most of the time.

[Aysun]

Isaac seems like he was meant to be a Hyur in so many ways.

[Vareal]

It does seem that way doesn't it? Lol Isaac keeps his tail wrapped up like that because when he was a child, Melfina would tug on his tail anytime he lost his balance or footing while she was training him. It annoyed him greatly so he solved the problem by wrapping his tail around his waist. So now he has excellent balance without his tail. His balance still isn't top notch with his tail unwrapped, but he will use it to steady himself when shooting an arrow at long distances.

[Aysun]

...Your character was trained by Melfina?

 

Nvm. I'm derailing the thread. :3

[Gerik]

lol Aysun, I think you're thinking of Menphina.

[Aysun]

Nooo I'm thinking of the chick you meet in Ul'dah who runs the group with the Echo. Is that not Melfina?

[Kylin]

Her name is Minfilia. I think Vareal's character is just some other self-made npc. Too many names that sound alike all over this community

 

I love that noble outfit with the top hat. Not that Ky would ever wear that IC of course >.>

...Your character was trained by Melfina?

 

Nvm. I'm derailing the thread. :3

 

As Kylin said, it's a made up NPC that plays a part in Isaac's story, though she may become a side character that I'll roll play. Also, to my surprise, there's an NPC in the game named Ailith. I had no idea when I made her until I got the quest lol

 

Also, I want a Bomb and I want a baby Chocobo Pet :bomb: :chocobo:

Omg. So true.

Sorry to burst everyone's bubble on the tail-less Miqo'te subject, but look at her arm. Her tail just so happens to be angled EXACTLY the same as her arm in that picture. The tail is there, it just blends in.

I tend to over analyze things.

[Ustarte]

I'm guessing the two in the lower right are DoH sets, the Culinarian(Assuming the one with the scarf) one looks especially good, Ustarte is definately going to need that one and hopefully an awesome looking fishing one

[Satisiun]

On the whole tail matter, a little bird told me that there is the possibility of several physical appearance categories getting 'numeric' values that you change to get what you want, and this includes tail length. '0' is not possible, however length may very well have its variable ranges.

[Aysun]

They've already officially released the four tail options for Miqo'tes in ARR (with pictures, but I can't remember the link at the moment). There are length options as well as style, such as tipped, "lion," fluffy, and normal.

[Ustarte]

 

Those are the 4 tail options, never heard about length options, but more customization is always good ^^.
