    Manqo'te

    In FFXI players had several reasons for playing as a Mithra: stats, looks, overly obsessed with cats etc. I myself played a Mithra Thief for the majority of my FFXI career as I felt the stat boost was substantial. However there was one question that kept coming up during EXP groups in particular. Are you a Mithra or a Manthra? The resounding answer continues to be: I play a Manthra.

    Assuming that there will only be female Miqo’te available as PCs, I am curious as to who intends to venture forth into FFXIV playing as a "Manqo’te," and what are your reasons for doing so? Bear in mind attribute point allocation is up to the player, and SE has stated that racial choice will not have a huge impact.

    Personally I do not intend to roll a Miqo’te when I log into FFXIV mostly due to a pretty annoying cat allergy irl.

    Re: Manqo'te

    I hate the term Manthra to be honest, my character in FFXI is Kailea a female Mithra, just because I am a guy in RL does not mean my character is... I know that sounds odd, but it does urk me.

    long answer short, no I will not be venturing out into FFXIV as a... Manqo'te... bleh that sounds horrid....

      I would like to play as a manqo'te, but probably won't.

      I don't really like living vicariously or playing pretend though, and much as i wanted to play mantra for the stats in XI, i just found it too creepy.

        My first, and most beloved, character was a Mithra. My sons character was a Mithra. I don't think that either of us will be playing a Chakotay....or whatever they are called.

          Oh God... Already people talking about "Manqo'te". What ever the hell that is. I know what a Miqo'te is, but a "Manqo'te"? What the hell is that?

          [/sarcasm]

          Why would somebody change the name of something that obviously doesn't exist just to make it more masculine sounding. Just keep the name the same and just say "Hey, I'm a male." Not "Hey, I'm a Manthra! Uh Duh!" I just hate the term, its stupid sounding and really has no sense to it. As you would have to change Galka to Girlka if you wanted it to be a female.

                      Re: Manqo'te

                      Back on my first MMO which was city of heroes, I played a female character.
                      It's funny how 2 spherical graphics can grant you so much attention.
                      I even aqquired a hubby of sorts called Electric Cyclops. He was polite, defended my honor and treated me like a lady.
                      I never did have the heart to tell him I was male.

                      When it came to ffxi I decided to play a male avatar.
                      I think it partly comes down to the game itself how characters are chosen.
                      City of heroes lets you create your own superhero so your imagination can run wild.
                      We're a bit limited in ffxi with the exeption of roleplay. Which is why many of us chose either avatars we liked.

                      I'm liking the idea that 14 has a broad range to create our avatars. We'll have a little more individuality and diversity amongst groups and finally LS "or the 14 equivalent" photo's wont be so generic and we'll have more chance to pick people out of a crowd.
                      I remember a pt once when 5/6 of us had the exact same character model. Which was weird.

                          For the record, with the exception of FFXI and EVE, I've always rolled female avatars. I really don't understand how anyone can see their character as a pure reflection of themselves without being a little bit crazy. Extension, sure, but expecting your character to be as close to you as possible strikes me as a bit creepy. People asking about your gender are rarely annoying, also blacklists. If they really give a damn about your parts in real life, they're not people you want to be hanging around anyway.

                            The last guy's comment was too hilarious.

                              The "Times are Tough" line got me good.

                              You either reflect yourself in your character

                              or reflect your character in yourself.

                              Which is why i played with a male avatar in XI.
