FFXI Racial Stereotypes (I had to do this lol)Follow

#1 Dec 29 2013 at 9:12 PM Rating: Decent
I decided to write up my own stereotypes of the races in FFXI. This is all for fun, but I actually noticed some of these in characters based on the race they chosen. Maybe its just me but I happen to come across this often! Post your opinion or your own funny/serious stereotype if you like :D


FFXI STEREOTYPES:

Catty Mithra/Manthra: We have the ones who always seem miserable playing the game.
Either you see them in jeuno trying to sell almost everything from their lower lvls
at ridiculous amounts of gil because they're complaining they're broke, or they are
******** about how hard the game is. They normally have cold, unwelcoming personalities.

Overly friendly Galka: These guys are way too friendly. You expect the person behind the screen to
either be some guy in their mid 20's, or some creep in their 40's. But really its just a 12 year old.
Let them enjoy the game, they just want to make it far and mean no harm.

Toolbag Elvaan M: You see these guys swarming every single bazaar to find currency,
alexandrites, etc. And if you don't cut the price by 100k they dead you completely.
You also see them as an oak MNK, claiming to be a gift from god to the server they reside in.
They feel like they are on their A game, and they are above everyone they play with. If you only
play mage jobs, you can't be their friend.

Two Faced Elvaan F: These types have both mage and melee jobs leveled. One day you'll
see them strutting around jeuno as a DRG, the next day they're a WHM. They are unsure what they
want in this game, yet they try their best. They are kind of selfish at times, and only want
to benefit themselves. They don't show it though. You cant see their facial expression
behind the screen. Watch out for those, you never know whats next

Know-it-all Hume M: They have only melee jobs, because they hate magic skill leveling. They
think they know everything about anything. They will judge you and ridicule you for
"playing the game" and not "doing your job" when thats all youre doing.

Muted Hume F: They don't say much at all. And when they do talk, they suck at the game.
No matter what job it is.

Wise *** Taru M: We get it, you guys have the largest MP pool in the game which makes you
the best mages. Well MP isnt a problem for most of us anymore, so cut the **** already. And yes
you are a well geared taru who is 2 foot nothing and can solo almost anything. We get it, you
purchased all that gil for your mythic. Now take a seat already.

Cutie Patootie Taru F: They are just so adorable! They're usually real females who are
always kind to one another and support gay rights. They are good at what they do ingame, and are
always great to have around! Keep one close by at all times.

I resent the Know-it-all Hume Males one. We have all jobs leveled because only we know how to properly play the jobs. Smiley: rolleyes

I will say though that there are some players I've seen/been around that do seem to follow these patterns.

I don't know about everyone else, but the Galka that I meet are either among the nicest players I've ever met, as this post mentions, or they're absolute psychopaths. It's quite the Russian roulette.

Universe 1:

(Rentwokay) Hey, would you mind tossing me a Regen if you get the chance?
(Galka) Sure, no problem. Would you like Regen III or Regen IV? How 'bout Haste? You need Refresh, too? I've got a Red Curry Bun in here, too, that I'm not using.

Universe 2:

(Rentwokay) Hey, would you mind tossing me a Regen if you get the chance?
(Galka) I SWALLOW YOUR SOUL

Elvaan females are quite rare, so I can't post an opinion on them. I had to search to confirm that they were playable, because I don't recall ever seeing one that wasn't Curilla.

The Elvaan male one is accurate.

It's like the majority of you tarus take advantage of the fact that you're, at best, eye level with the naughty bits of others.
