FFXI NPC Fashion Makeover?

Anyone notice how weak NPCs look? With their Bronze and Leather Bodies and Cloth Robes, I mean not only are they a reminder of the past updates that made them, but if something were to happen to them they would probably die, due to the low stats of those armor. Even the soldiers. @_@

I'd like to go to Selbina or Mhaura on my fully AF3 geared THF or WHM and not look like I'm at a refugee camp for the less dressed lol I feel overdressed.

Anyone feel the same concern? If it wasn't for the PS2, it'd be nice to see new clothing on NPCs.

Although that would alienate new player experiences.... hmm...
I don't know.

I would watch them die o.o;;

Talk to Maat, he'll set you straight.
