I wanna start by saying that its been a year now since the two races were put into Final Fantasy XIV. They're limited compared to other races when they got released and that goes for Hrothgar even more so since they can't even change hairstyles without fantasia. There only options for Female Viera and Male Hrothgar and you can't make a Male Viera and Female Hrothgar. And to top all this off both of the races can't even wear a good chunk of hats that are available in the game.
Despite all this I'm really glad that these two races got added into the game as Viera offer some Ivalice fan service and people like bunny girls while for Hrothgar they stand out a bit compared to all the other playable races so its a nice contrast. I've been a Hrothgar this entire time since Shadowbringers early access and only changed once (more on that later) and then shortly changed back to Hrothgar.
However I'm still sad that we haven't gotten any news about the two races getting any updates. I rather they focus first on playable content especially right now due to content drought until the next patch and with COVID-19 I seriously doubt they will have that much free time to work on something like this.
Even so I still feel frustrated and sad about having the same limitations as I had since Shadowbringers came out. I mention earlier I race changed and then went back and that happen because I was getting sick of not being able to wear certain hats with the final straw being the King Slime helmet.
I wanna mention again that I became a Hrothgar since Shadowbringers Early Access and didn't race change for a year and that was because I really liked the race but I got so annoyed from lack of updates and talk about it as well.
I did end up going back to Hrothgar after going to another race after a few days mainly because I love playing the Hrothgar race. They're really cool to me and I enjoyed it a ton both because of personal enjoyment from just having my character be name after a mascot (So more or less a meme character) but also because I just like Hrothgar as a race in this world as they're just interesting to me and that can go for several races like Au Ra and Elezen.
I don't know 100% why I'm making this thread since it pretty much comes down to as "I like this race but their limitations make me sad and I understand that other content comes first and with what's going on they don't have much time to focus on this but it still makes me sad" so it probably just comes across of someone just expressing their frustrations (Or just being whiny) about lack of updates or any talk about the two races.
I guess I just wanna express my likes and dislikes with both of the races after being out for a year and in their current state and see what others have to say on this as well since I don't think I've seen much talk about this as of late especially after the last live letter.
TLDR: I like both races but sad about lack of updates
