The Viera Experience

[@Wastingsometimehere]

Viera provided an answer to a question never asked. "What if models were also part rabbit?" Let's face it. The reason why the race got sexed up was because of Fran from FF12. FF12 players know that default outfit.

[@SamTheLemonBoy]

Are they tribal people, or hoes? Yes.

[@OniGanon]

A lot of their outfits in the Tactics Advance games weren't exactly modest either.

[@RuneKatashima]

I mean her FF12 outfit is the Viera racial gear... so everyone knows it.

[@PerkulatorBenny]

@@OniGanon "Not exactly modest" may not be INcorrect since like half of their outfits show of a lot of legs, but it's not as if they were dressing like strippers* or anything. If you look at their designs in FFTA: Assassin, Sniper, Summoner, and White Mage were all well covered. And that's four out of their eight classes already. Archer and Elementalist had exposed midriffs and skirts (Elementalist's skirt was tied off to the side, exposing more of one leg while hiding the other), neither of which is particularly showy, though the archer's skirt is on the short side. Finally there's Fencer and Red Mage, whose clothes could be described as high cut slit dresses but with less than full length skirts, though the Red Mage's "dress" turn into a jacket at the shoulders plus the high boots covering most of the legs, so the most "immodest" one would be fencers with high cut slits on a medium length skirt and exposed shoulders... But even they aren't anywhere near Fran in her leather outfit and stiletto heels. *No, I'm not implying Fran dresses like a stripper. That outfit is way too complex for the purposes of stripping. You have to pay extra and go to the back room smelling of burnt wax before you see anyone in her outfit.

[@NekoUrabe]

@@OniGanonI’m still sad the red mage viera from Tactics Advance isn’t a style in this game ;;

[@c_huvaknunh9138]

All I know is, male Viera dominate in high fashion, especially when they wear a very iconic Ruby red shirt and leather pants.

[@beasy901]

So iconic

[@slabsteria]

I bet they like burgers

[@Ericapantses]

The highest of all crime is when they fantasia into catgirls

[@tyhjyys]

this is pretty funny

[@SniperKing-O]

And has a yandere forever waifu cat girl with blue Alphie styled hair. :3

[@hjt091]

3:42 worth pointing out that male and female viera are indistinguishable until puberty something to think about

[@dtk1981]

This also means depending on when your character left everyone around your male veira either grew up thinking your a girl, or you were old enough for them to tell but they will always have that doubt in the back of their minds

[@SamTheLemonBoy]

x.x'

[@Tioko]

@@dtk1981 I personally think Viera go by they/them until puberty. You're not a boy, you're not a girl, you're a child. A kit, if you will.

[@dtk1981]

@Tioko I like the idea that culturally it's seen as some sort of temporary gender. Most grow into male or female but some mature as that gender . (Mostly a social construct but wholly based on a cultural take on their early biological development. ) I'd imagine such individuals would have a distinct roll in society. Probably a religious leader. Not necessarily intersex but socially so.

[@vegeta002]

I like the think the Viera's fandom reputation exists in-universe as well and that they're so aggressively isolationist because they fucking _know_ it.

[@SamTheLemonBoy]

aware

[@akane.sakurada]

I used to be a female Viera, and what I can't emphasize enough is how emotionless they are. I was fine with not having any hats but some emotes going as far as to do absolutely nothing made me switch to Miqo'te instead. That part is usually overlooked.

[@LittleSparklingStars]

I actually like that about them. Miqo'te are too uwu for me.

[@overdrivedrinker8284]

I think it fits given their lore, and what we know about them as of now

[@ВоинСвета-ч4х]

We all know that highlander girls are the best.

[@vincible7023]

That's valid, but my badass Dark Knight doing the little kitty leg lift at the end of dungeons always took me out of it, as cute as it is.

[@xsteelersx6]

Thank you LemonBoy for your continued submissions of the musical variety. Bun out of Bun would sigh-gasp-moan again!

[@SamTheLemonBoy]

I really appreciate that, thank you so much!

[@Braven-j7m]

The female viera were the only reason I gave ff14 another chance after playing the game on release day all those years ago and I regret nothing...except for the lack of hats and ear animations

[@SamTheLemonBoy]

the ooga booga brain really went hard the moment they spawned

[@maxgehtdnixan4913]

Same. when we got male viera instead of hats, I quit again. They promised us hats. Bunboys are not "better". Give us hats!

[@matthewstef7441]

I would like ear animations very much, but even when I played as an Au Ra I’ve never been a fan of hats in general, so I’m good with there not being hats for Viera

[@shingshongshamalama]

There are as many catboys as there are female viera. That's kind of insane.

[@SamTheLemonBoy]

Yep

[@mikoto7693]

I have a theory about the catboys. Well, two actually. 1) FF11. Back in that game the Miqo’te were known as Mithra. And the Mithra were a female only race. Granted I left before the final expansion but for the entire game there was only one male Mithra and he was an npc in the Wings of the Goddess expansion. Ever since coming to FF14 I’ve wondered if many ex-FF11 players are just happy to have the male Miqo’te option after so many years of being denied. 2) G’raha Tia. Need I say more?

[@pushpopthemoogle]

as a Viera main, this is correct information. though I do wish we didn't have to mod to get to wear hats since they wore hats in their 1st appearance in TA

[@SamTheLemonBoy]

Squeenix said a couple of reasons why, but sad that modders are just easily able to do that

[@ShiroCh_ID]

@@SamTheLemonBoy as usual modders dont have constrains main devs has or well thats what some mod devs that joins the studio that its game they are modding for says(im looking at you mojang)

RAAAHHH FEMBOY IRL FEMBOY IN GAME

[@blockeddefault4360]

WOOOO

[@soulechelon2643]

Absolutely adore my Viera. I based my current WoL off of a character I wrote about in a book, and lore-wise Viera fits her. But Femhroth will probably fit her even better appearance-wise. If they come out looking amazing, I'm gonna have to make a big choice.

[@SamTheLemonBoy]

That sounds like a ton of fun :o

[@midnightjay]

Viera isn't a choice, it's a way of life. I all seriousness, I'm surprised more people aren't pissed than the modding community solved the damn hat issue (and probably many more issues) when Yoshi-P and team won't. Viera have been out since Shadowbringers, is it even an excuse its not fixed anymore.

[@SamTheLemonBoy]

They have made their reasons apparent, but still sagde

[@ISpecZxPainZz]

Me who played as a Midlander for 6 years and immediately fell in love with his Benchmark Male Viera and switched right from the release. I regret nothing.

[@smol27]

I like how extremely subtle the animations are for a race that is "tribal"

[@motherofsneks486]

I come from a Northern "tribe" in Canada, the Cree. We are a very subtly expressive people.

[@LuceStarlight5]

Now I'm waiting for the Hyur experience like my tomboy Higlander would: patiently, collected, in a cool-stylish way and most importantly, nerve wrecked on the inside

[@cvbghj132]

The entire reason I started playing 14 was because a friend of mine streamed, and he was a viera. I ooga boogad so hard i bought the game

[@SamTheLemonBoy]

the caveman brain really hit hard

[@BarelyOnTimeGuitar]
