Wait…Matt… you haven't dragged Michael into Bozja yet?! GET ON IT!
Interesting, although not immediate part of survey result, we can calculate about 42.9% of respondent is female, definitely way higher than WOW percentage.
I find it very interesting that SGE landed so low after the hype. I mean, for myself, outside It’s aesthetics it’s just not as interesting as SCH.
At least for Western heal-main content creators, SGE seems to be considered premier healer design. Maybe not so for the Japanese players?
Fem Hroth will probably make the entire Hroth race have a baby boom.
It's always funny how DRK is consistently one of the more popular tanks regardless if it plays well or not. The aesthetics really do carry it hard.
We all knew Hrothgar wouldn't be as popular as Viera, but they were done so dirty, and covid didn't help their case. Hopefully they get a CC overhaul someday
Honestly I can't wait for fem Hrothgar! I think ff14 will make them sexier than the char in GW2 if the implementation of male viera is anything to go by.
I still cant get over how people think Stormblood is worse than Heavensward. I LOVED Stormblood. The villains in Stormblood and their motivations are just incomparable to HW. I found myself really understanding their point of view and thinking "you know what, no wonder theyre evil Id be evil too!"
I'd be playing Hrothgar already if they released with full hat support and females
My preferred jobs are near the bottom lmao: AST and WAR. And I guess WHM too, so long as it isn't below lvl 80 content. Also I'm not surprised by the nearly 50/50 gender split. I feel like only newbies to the game are surprised when half (or more, depending on the social circles you run in) of the people you meet are women. And it's not just the gposers and casuals lol, my static and any others I'm peripherally aware of have women in it, hell any subs we find for our dps spots or healers always seem to be ladies too. It's nice, no sweaty dudebro culture.
Female Hrothgar will change these numbers for sure. liongirls are just better than catgirls 🙂 17% of players have discovered the lelafell secret (the smaller you are, the bigger other races are), maybe thats why gnomes were so well liked ddespite being the butt of all jokes in WoW for 17 years. "The Long fall" is by far the best song in FF, in this list it's called "the twinning", which is the name of the dungeon it is in. the song is called "the long fall". favorite story: Endwalker > Heavensward > Shadowbringers > Stormsbloom > ARR
Broe WHM here.
Strange thing I noticed after switching from lala… I IMMEDIATELY started getting more commendations on average during dungeons/trials, because people could physically see me towering over them and casting spells.
So only 3% of players are Roegadyns like me. And I'm absolutely fine with that.
1:45 how much of that is a feedback loop though? People don't play them cause they lack support, and they don't get support cause people don't play them.
I guess that put me in the 0.1% of the playerbase as a Gun Bun.
From the players i knew were female, they played as male character. It was surprising to see that it's generally in reverse. Male players playing mostly female characters isn't at all surprising tho LUL
"they haven't ****ed up any of their characters" = The SINGLE biggest difference between FF and WoW right now.
Dunno why but I would also like to know the percentage of male to female players, I know a lot of girls play this game (or at least more so compared to other MMO)
I'm shocked dancer and astro are so low.
Weebs.
So, me and all my irl friends are 2% of the population, lol.
I'm sure Endwalker winning the Favourite Main Story is a bit of release bias. That said I would struggle to rank Endwalker and Shadowbringers if the chips were down.
There aren’t many Hrothgar because of the difficulty in customization. There aren’t many hairstyles. It’s actually expensive just to change what hair they have. They can’t wear hats and only a few helmets. Perhaps if these weren’t an issue, there’d be more people playing them. It’s a slippery slope. Why put forth the effort if no one plays it; inversely why play it if there’s no effort to make it equal to the other races?
2013 start time for me. Male who plays male, currently Viera, but I tend to play Highlander as well. Samurai my favorite job.
As a BLU main, I feel equally depressed and proud at the same time 🙂
Shout out to all my BLUballers out there hunting their spells, logs, and morbol mounts <3
While this data is interesting it's only ~2000 people polled and likely only Japanese players responding. I'd be curious to see stats for the larger population of the game and how it differs by region.
#1 – A bunch of Miqo might move to FemHroth… BUT…
#2 – The women who play Miqo bois play them for a reason… which Hrothgar can't satisfy. I bet mostly men play male Hrothgar.
It's unfair how hot the male NPC are
