Hmm...well according to the role-play's I have attended I would consider it to not really a furry game, but yet that is in the eyes of the person with the opinion. I attend role-play's that to me make me think of the movie Lion King or Balto.
 
Though there have been role-plays I have attended that actually were an actual furry role-play I attended one with my little brother, and I found it quite fun once you figured out how to role-play like the others without seeming like a large doof. xD
But in my thought Feral Heart can be anything your imagination perceives it to be.
There's probably atleast some furry rp's if not more and we cannot deny their existence and their existence should not change the reputation of the rest of the community (I say should, there's alot of people who probably think otherwise), the thing is roleplays don't make the game, you can roleplay a certain genre but that won't make the game a certain genre. The community can be a bunch of furry's (and that's completely fine) but the game will still stay the same unless change is provided in order to appeal to the dominating culture of the community.

No, this game is not a furry game, for as far as I know, its purely because of the roleplays that people might think that this game is a 'furry game' and this game does not even have half-human half-<insertanimalhere> models. The one thing that would make people think as such are roleplays, and roleplays do not change a game, for as long as we are speaking about the engine and such, but still, I don't think FH is a furry game.

Aye, but the game is based on creativity and imagination, along with role-play and the freedom to create a character of your own, no need for a model to satisfy if you think about it c:

I consider it to be bith acually. Dealing with animals is not only what I say is furry, but being offered that openness to think out how your character should act or look like I say as well. There is no right or wrong answer to this topic, all have opinions which can be expressed. But I personally say yes and no to this.

Meh, I don't really see it as a 'furry' game. It's basically just a fantasy animal/creature rpg if you really want to call it something... Nothing more. Not all the players have their character with humanistic traits, nor do some have completely realistic to what species of what the character is supposed to be. Im personally not bothered with the title 'furry game' But I can see why people get offended by it, since the term furry in our modern day age isn't exactly in a positive light with everyone.

From what i've seen, most people associate furries with pornographic anthropomorphic fanart and dwelving into their fursona to the point where they dont know the difference between reality and fictional universes. Even though this is only a small group of extremists in the group that give them a bad reputation, newcomers will see this and automatically judge the game as such and existing users would be rather infuriated with whoever gave the name and attack them in defense.

Honesty, i think it's rather stupid to label something that's beautifully unique though. If you want to call it a furry game, then go ahead and do so though. *shrugs* I honestly dont care too much, though I myself will keep calling int feralheart.

U WANNA HAV EH BAAD TOM?!
