What you find to be useless trash is not so to others, like it or not the glamour endgame is real to many people.
I disagree, a lot of people wear the same hairstyles. Having alternately variates versions of the ones we already have isn't actually a bad idea. It creates more detail, and adds player diversity. I think the trend so far is new hairstyles with every patch. There might be more for part 2. Hairstyles are also very likely for an expansion. They might be holding the most creative of them for 4.0.
Glamour makes Aquapolis relevant, which would be "content" in your eyes, no? Sounds like you only consider battle content as actual content. Aquapolis is battle content and it would be dead without glamour and housing, therefor glamour, and housing, is content. Or at least, not trash.
It finally happened!

my greatest fear is that the pvp version of the garo event gear will cost as much as the current gear. This is only plausible due to the fact that he stated that the event will be going for an extended period of time. To put things into perspective, the costs of each piece are as follows, assuming you are only going for glamour:
Weapon: 12,375 (PLD is usually a 70%/30% split)
Head: 7425
Body: 12,375
Hands: 7425
Legs: 12,375
Feet: 7425
That's a total of 59400 wolf marks for one set! That's a hell of a grind even with the wolf mark bonuses. While I highly doubt that would be the case SE has proven to make simple events into total grind fests. Anyone remeber the last 3 minions for the Yokai event? They also need to bump up the wolf mark cap. It's been that way since 2.0. Please SE don't make pvp more of a slog fest for glamour than it already is. I can just imagine the amount of salt coming in now from people just half-assing it in FL for that 600 wolf mark daily or win trades in the feast.
Most are very similar to existing hairstyles with a few tweaks here and there. He's absolutely right. Furthermore some of them are clearly more suited to feminine or androgynous characters yet are made available to both genders at the expense of more 'masculine' options for those of us who would prefer more of that particular aesthetic.
Kinda sucks that only 3 GARO sets for female actually have pants...
Why must girl = skirt :(
