the reason is that you don't see their faces, which makes it difficult for the average human to connect to them as avatars

Glad to know I'm not "average."

Once everyone realizes how cute trykers are they will flock to them like flies!
Where else can you start next to a nice swimming pool in your backyard?

Fyros are the coolest, in my opinion. They have a certain Native American motif to them.

Aside from my main, I spent some time in beta playing a Zorai. The masks are really cool but my perception of their look (African tribal) conflicts with the culture in the game (obviously influenced by Southeast Asia).

Matis seem kind of generic (but very nice looking), Trykers seem -too- cute for my liking. I might try each some day, just so I undertand it all better.

I went with Tyker in beta...I liked the CUTE Oh so PAINFULLY cute looks. BUT...The harvesting and crafting as a Tyker is not for the faint of heart, some materials are hard as HECk to find or the nodes just too fragile to get anything of value from.

So when I got my copy out of the box and loaded up, I decided to try Fyros. Welp I HATE the haircuts...but the harvesting is not like pulling teeth, and in fact I foundmyself tripping over prespawned nodes...which in beta...the Tyker lands only had ONE city with those. (this meant you had to find a higher level harvester that was in the mood to prospect for you for about 10 to 15 minutes...maybe less).

I just don't like the Matis homeland, had a Matis in beta and dumped her at level FOUR mage/fighter. And I have a personal problem with the masked race, knowing it is a Kami loyalty mask helps a little with dealing with them, but I still want to be able to see my own face. I guess since I have nothing to hide, I don't feel a need to put on the mask.

Now you got me baited !

So glad to see that you reconsidered! Welcome to the family Kovah!

Fyros in my case because I expected the landscape to be rather open (which it indeed is) because for a start I wanted to have unblocked view for safety reasons

What, people don't like masks? Or pseudo-Chinese architecture?

Works for me, anyway.

I went with Fyros in the end, but I made a Tryker beforehand, just to get the hang of the game a little. The only thing I really don't like about the Fyros is the make's facial hair... Ack! Cut it off, cut it off!

I'm tempted to try a Zorai, because they look cool.

But I'll never be the race I truly want to be... the Gibbais... so cool.
