Is there a reason we can't have bare feet in the game?

No sensible reason besides somebody has to do it.

One of the nameless NPCs at Moonfire Faire is barefoot, so they're either experimenting with it again or making fun of people who have been asking for years. https://i.imgur.com/bWENJJN.png

I tell you why: Because they don't want it to happen.
At least until now.

And the heel on those doesn't even look as cursed as on the Moonfire Sandals.
Which I assume is because this uses the new Dawntrail foot model, while the sandals still use the 2.0 clay blob model.

Because yes, they did already improve the feet with Dawntrail, they just kept the sandals for whatever reason.

Keeping this away now to harvest standing ovation when they announce bare feet at next Fanfest.

I am convinced it's only a matter of time until implemented for all.

Why exactly do you just want to dress up your childlike character in a miniskirt and tanga? I'm honestly curious
Assumptions are a funny thing, aren't they?

because i dressed my character like a soldier that's why. Do you always go through peoples profiles and judge them based on race and what they wearing for a asking a simple question? Everyone has given me legit and/or funny answers and yet you started projecting.

Got something to hide?

It's probably because one of ffxiv developer saw Xal'atath feet in wow and decided we can't have foot fetish in ffxiv

Hahahha. Also yeah, if they even seriously had some sort of moral guardian - attitude. Like "People would do horrible things if you could sleep on the ground or lie down" etc. Or whatever the emote thing was.

Flash to a few years later, they are giggling at literal BDSM-glam they introduced as dungeon/raid gear in a liveletter

You can have bare feet if you are on PC though and let me tell you this straight. Modders did a great job for almost every single thing that these devs were incapable of. Even if they put us bare feet it will most likely be blocks again.

Random nameless NPC can be added to the list of barefoot characters
