contre-de-sixte  Y’know I kinda feel like SE might be moving…

They might just be pushing more friendly Garlean NPCs. Knowing the dev team, they won’t put that much effort in making a Garlean playable race. If it took them so long to make something like Eureka Anemos, think of how long it would take them to make your idea happen.

Ehh. That’s not a good comparison when Eureka is a lot more complex then what I was suggesting. They could, also, just have them be playable from the get-go and justify the characters backstory and magicness is side-stuff. I wouldn’t put it past them to be that patently lazy either.
