The problem I see with Viera is that they would be way over sexualized. Dragon armor wouldn't just have a hole in the belly, it would just be a blue shell on their back with some spiky panties.

Though to be fair, that's how it's always been with the Viera. That's how they were designed by the artist(s) and that design was given the OK.
Though if they added them to FFXIV it would likely follow more in line with the precedents set forth in FFXIV, being mostly modest armor. As I've said before, there's really only an issue with a very small number of pieces in that regard, a vast minority in comparison to the amount of available gear out there. Not to mention some of it isn't designed for combat use in the first place.
Actually, some of them aren't really that bad. Assassin, Sniper, Summoner and White Mage cover the body almost entirely. Red Mage and Fencer are kind of on the edge of being an issue. Archer and Elementalist are easily the most ridiculous lol.
As long as it's something reasonable and not just an excuse to show some skin. I wouldn't want Viera to be the bunny-eared mannequins for the design team's fantasies.
We're here to kill things, not P-pop outside the Rudy.

Indeed.
lol I hate how MMO devs pretty much expect a medal each time they make armor for female chars… The industry has some serious equity issues.
On a lighter note, I still can't decide between fem-roeg and mi'qote. I hope they release some kind of trial or video to get a look at character creation options.
I agree with you guys. I will probably create an alt that is Fem-Roeg and play it enough to see if I like it's movements, casting animations and things before I take the plunge with Niko.
I posted a new poll regarding zone changes to come in 2.0. Personally i'm super sad there is no frost bitten tundra in the current version these mfers better add an expansion and give me some snow to romp around in ASAP! Other then that i can't wait to see what changes come to Limsa, even if they fix gridania i won't give 2 fucks!
