Hello Square-Enix.
I've been, like many of your gamers, playing Final Fantasy XI for a long time and for many or few reasons, we started our game prefering a race over another.
However, with time passing and experiencing more and more content of the game, some of us, may have noticed that the race they were playing wasn't the one that they really wanted.
May be aesthetic issues or Stat-related preferences, some may want to be a Tarutaru over an Elvaan or a Hume over a Mithra and vice versa.
Being one of those players, that sadly, after having took a conspicuous number of Jobs to level 75 and so many others to level 90, after the level cap increase and of course after having completed all the Missions of all the storylines of the game's expansions, it would be pretty much a disaster to restart just because of aesthetic or Stat problems. Not to mention equipment transfer, Rare/Exclusive items and of course, access to many areas, Conquest Points, Imperial Standings, Allied Notes, Cruor, Dominion Notes etc...
Reason why I am suggesting, today, a PAID Character Race Change Program, very similar to the Character Reactivation one.
Allowing us players, unsatisfied of our character's race, to change it to another and as well customizing the features such as Gender, Size, Face and Hair color for a certain amount of money, like a World Transfer.
I am pretty much sure that you've had, in the past, suggestions like mine, reason why I am sure many may have already incited you to introduce this kind of service, either through GMs Calls or Email or Customer Live Chat support.
So, here I am, posting it for (maybe everyone) who had my same idea.
Thank you for reading. Hoping to see the suggestion implemented very soon.
Eldwir.
