[Suggestion] Paid Race Change Program.

[Ophiuchus]

In my personal opinion, saying that race change is unrealistic for a fantasy game is a rather silly objection in of itself. As for your point of no means of lore to possible make it realistic I imply you to look at items/events that impose a costume affect on characters. Even though those are considered costumes I'm sure there's an extreme that can be achieved for a more permanant "costume" effect if you really want to go that route.

People can get surgey in real life to change their apearance to that of another race/gender of someone if they so wish (hell it's probably possible to make one look like a monkey surgically if they really wanted too). So, in actuallity, it's ironic you're argument is about the reality of it being in a fantasy game when it's already possible in the reality of real life.

As far as "changing one's race on a whim" can easy be prevented by my suggestion of having a one-time only use or extended cooldown.

As for what Eldwir is suggesting is that there are quite a number of people that would like this feature to be implemented. And I think we can all (pro-suggestion group) agree that we would like as little reason as possible for Square Enix to turn a blind eye to our suggestion because of a arguement that goes to personal levels is involved. I suggest, if you're opposed to the suggestion(s), to make an opposistion thread to the idea. That way people's personal pride/etc aren't being offended(intentially or otherwise) and thus lead to an unprofessional discussion.

That previous paragraph by the way is intended for everyone involved with this thread not just Eldwir or HFX7686, it's unproductive to have a debate over pure personal biases that is really nothing more than a arguement of dislikes towards others.
