Valentione's Day Items

Hopefully those who feel strongly about the issue decide to vote with their wallets and take their leave of the game altogether. That'd be a better way of reinforcing their chosen stance instead of trying to guilt trip the development team with deceptive and horrific accusations when things do not go their way.

The added benefit, of course, is that we don't have to see the storm in a teacup surrounding gender locked gear each time the development team dare to throw a bone towards traditional aesthetics/gender norms - something which is still very popular outside of the biased social media bubble.

Please stop gender locking seasonal/ANY gear.

Let the gents have dresses, let the gals have shirts. After this many years, it's more than time to do away with the gender-restriction-on-gear thing.

The new developer blog post says that we can buy the opposite-gender gear from the seasonal shop if we want it. So no worries about retainers and squads and such.

Devs make the most high-effort event in the last year and everyone whines about not being able to play with their little dress-up dolls.

Things like this almost ruin the entire discussion. Rage quotting the game over glamour is ridiculous.

Honestly it never fails when we have an event with no glamour people get upset, and when we do people here still complain. If you don't like the outfits then don't do the content.

I would rather see people do that actually, stop complaining on the forums and quit if its really that bad. I feel going out their way to always make sure you can wear gear on both genders isn't that big of a deal. Representation matters yes, but Playable Content>Cosmetics. This is how its always been, thats how its always going to be.

That being said I'll say this, What would you rather have? Hair and Glams to wear, but no content to do, or would you rather have content to play and have them take their time on cosmetics?

What a lot of people in this community need to realize is that just because you don't like content and dont indulge doesnt mean its bad or a lack there of, Its still content that the community at large does. If you can only think about yourself and how mad you're getting over a glam, when the Dev team is already working themselves to the bone, then you need to get over yourself.

Yes, because the same people that work on creating costumes for the seasonal events are the same ones who work on creating the next Ultimate...

Funny because thats the sad reality, they dont have a big team, and FF7R is where most of the Money FFXIV makes is going. Fun Fact the chocobo racing guy is currently making our raids now.

Gents got the 2B dress and I have seen like 2 male characters wear it. I have seen zero guys wear the bunny costume since ShB launched. Why exactly does a 1% minority need the same amount of glamour as normal people? It takes resources and we probably wouldn't get two versions of an outfit. We didn't get a masculine counterpart for the level 1 cosmetic 2B set, for example.

So people who would love to have the other outfit for their character because it would look better on them should vote with their wallet and leave the game..hmm I hope that those saying that will remember such a thing when they accuse the devs again about females getting better glamours and posting about it. Because in the end both are topics just about glamour. But I guess as soon as its about people wanting the male options for their females, they are the bad guys..
