Gold Saucer outfits, gender locked?

This is sadly not the reply I was hoping to receive. Much disappointed SE.

They'll never change anything about it so close to patch but I guess we can still show them how many of us are unhappy with their choice. Even if let's be honest it was oh so predictable... I'm much less hyped for GS now... The ul'dan outfit better look good...

つ ◕_◕ ༽つ No more dumb and useless gender restricted gear or riot? like srsly guyz stahp it つ ◕_◕ ༽つ

even on a moral pov to restrict women to bunny outfit is so fking cliche like really se wth

I'm gonna throw my hat in here and say that I don't mind gender-locked gear... I see no problem with this. If you want to wear a bunny suit, roll up a female character. If you want to get the Setzer outfit, roll up a male. This isn't a problem.

As a male player who plays a male character, I have no desire to see my character wearing a leotard, high heels, and rabbit ears, prancing around like a sexy waitress (And quite frankly I don't really want to see that on any male characters either, while I'm being bluntly honest). Nor do I have any desire to wear a dress at any point in my life. Should I have the option...? I ... guess... But I don't see the point. I'd rather have glamor restrictions on heavier armors removed.

People who complain about things like this have too much time on their hands. It's a game, folks. So you can't engage in your digital crossdressing fantasies. Maybe you should rethink your priorities, a little. There are refugee children starving in Uldah and you're annoyed that you can't wear a dress!

If you want to wear heavy armor you should just roll a tank, there's no reason to remove the restrictions!

Do you see why that argument is dumb? Its even worse for gender locked gear because it actively changes what we look like AND costs money just to try out 1 piece of gear your interested in.

And as a female player who plays a female character, I have no desire to see my character wearing a getup like that either.

Yet SE seems to think it's all I should want, and why would I want a silly little thing like a badass Final Fantasy character outfit when I can be a sexy bunny, or something to that effect. It's shortsighted and foolish, and in fact downright insulting when it's "one gender gets a Final Fantasy outfit, another gets a generic fanservice outfit."

It's dumb, basically. More glamour options for everyone, please.

Or at least even kilter for each gender. 1 unique iconic ff outfit for boys, and 1 unique one for girls. 1 sexualized outfit for girls, 1 for boys (it doesn't have to be cross-dressing, even).

This is just sort of so unbalanced its ridiculous. Boys get a cool outfit and girls can be a bunny.

Anyone know what the JP side is saying about this issue by chance?

Just did a quick scan, and there's nothing on the live letter JP side. They don't tend complain about much of anything in general, though.

As a female who plays a male character... I have a mighty need.

thankyou

I'm personally not the kind of person that can throw 10$ every time I want to change my char glamour. Glamour are free so far, the only restrictions are the ones SE puts without real reasons. My guy can wear a thong and he would be fab as a bunny dude.

Um, no. I shouldn't just "roll up a male" because I want the Setzer outfit. I like my character being a female. I don't want to be a male with their stupid sitting animations and their stupid standing poses and weird hairstyles, THANK YOU. There are other outfits in this game that are unisex and there is no excuse the Setzer outfit couldn't be one of them. Incase you didn't notice, not all of us want to be LOLXDSORANDOM and run around in this game looking slutty all the time.

I am fine with different outfits for male and female characters. It adds flavor to the game that you have an exclusive outfit to your characters gender.
