What race are you going to be, and why?

[Kaluuki]

So is Hyur winning because we're boring, or because we've seen the screenshots, plan on playing females, know what the underwear looks like and want to see how big the boobs can get?

My guess is they're popular because of the tittyslider. You know. Just basing my hypothesis on the fact that this is a forum full of lonely nerdy males.

[Recaldy]

Hume. It's all about old school character selection methods: Pick what looks like yourself.

[Kaisha]

Will depend on stats, but looks wise I may be leaning more towards Galka this time around rather than Mithra, although that'll change quickly if their MP pool is utter shite like XIs.

[Sirenia]

Hyur again probably. And I still hate Galkas....and their next generation.

[Tekoa]

I will be going Elezen this time around. I went Hume initially and always wanted to be a Elvaan so this time, going to do it right from the beginning.

[Talka]

I'm torn. I wanted to play a Falafel, but that new picture they released is just creepy :/
Also, the miffras look really cute! I may go for that.

[Guyverarmor]

Think I will roll a Falafel because it will remind me of my taru ._.

[lolwut]

I kinda want to stick with Mithra, but my gf wants to play as a Falafel and I think it'd look like a lesbian dating a baby. D:

[wipers]

For me it is a toss up between Mithra and Taru. It depends on what I chose as my first class. If I'm a mage got to be a taru any melee class got to be a Mithra.

And yet there are no Ls or Qs in the Japanese language, so some of this is the retarded english translation, which is even more retarded because our language always puts a u after q, so not only did they bastardize the japanese they bastardized the english as well.

Not enough posts to make links yet.

EDIT: Voted Miqo'te, duh.

[dejet]

I will be a M Hume. Need to see what I can make them look still

[Eggroll]

I'll most likely end up going elvaan this time around, if the racial stats are similar to what they were in ffxi.

[Kaluuki]

there aren't really any specific stats on races now.

[Xinos]

Elezen because Elvaan was the best in XI

^this

[Kurp]

I'm going to hold off making this choice until I can see the animations first hand. I played a Taru in XI and would like to play one again in XIV, but if the running animation with knees is poor or if they haven't made the two hand melee animations better, I'll probably pick another race.

My second choices would be either sex of Humes or Mithra. Elves and Galka don't grab my interest.

[Firehawk]

Taru's animation looked really nice on that vid we saw on youtube earlier ... running animation atleast... i think i'ma go elvaan this time around ... was a hume but deep inside sometimes i wished i was elv :/

[Rocl]

Also where are people seeing this tit/ass slider? >_> I have read nothing to suggest that, just a bunch of conjecture from screenshots detailing different skin/underwear color.

One of the customization pictures listed a bunch of confirmed adjustments and unconfirmed adjustments - bust size was listed under as unconfirmed. People kind of went wild with the idea afterward.

[Nokken]

Currently Hume in FFXI but I would like to be something different for XIV. Male Elezen appeals more to me than the others. Also, from the looks of the poll there will be more Hyur than the other races so picking something else might reduce the number of clones I see.

[Celeste]

I prefer to cockmangle my Hyurs, while Roegayding it up in Miqo'te town, with my lalafell brethren, with that ugly ass elezen bitch looking in with anticipation for something she ain't never gonna get.
