Stop forcing female clothes on me

I never argued otherwise? All i've said is clothes aren't gendered in it of themselves. In the context of ffxiv, glam can obviously be restricted on the basis of gender, but that's done so arbitrarily.. it's not some objective metric.

LMAO!

Thanks.

Then don’t use female clothes .nobody is forcing you.if you are bothered what other characters are wearing then I will suggest you start playing single player games where the world and globe revolves around you .don’t expect it in mmorpg

Not one example given. And for something that keeps happening more than one would be needed. I think it’s officially rage bait now.

Go the Monster Hunter Wilds route. Have the gear lean both toward the feminine and masculine side, let players toggle which one they want to use. If you don't like the gear in question at all, then there's the glamour option.

It's amusing though, you gotta admit.

People bring their own thoughts totally unrelated to my original post.
People tell me what I should do, or shouldnt do.
People assume I'm intolerant after 4 sentences, lol.
Now you accuse me of rage bait?
Everyone here has their own view and everyone thinks their truth is the only one.

If I said, ribbons and ruffles look girly to me, would it matter? No it doesn't, I just don't use the glamour.
If I said, the new Aiming set from the alliance raid suits only Dancer- it just does not fit BRD/MCH. Any points? Not really.
If I said, I do like the new streetwear glam from PVP, would it change anything? No.
My opinion is no more or less important than anyone else's.

In the end, controversies attract interest. And I think, it worked pretty well.

However, there is one truth I am convinced of. If Rathalos M/F | Omega Attire M/F can exist on any body type - then any set can.
Fending/Maiming/Striking+ Aiming/Scouting + Casting/Healing sets share the same models throughout years. Why not add M/F versions, unrestrict glamours from roles and allow anybody wear what they want?

Still though, the forum never ceases to amaze me.

I'm glad this game has been removing gender-lock on a lot of clothing... but I also miss more variety in some areas..

IE, in tank and reaper clothing, I wish I could have more glamours that aren't always big ugly armors (there are very very few exceptions, and ofc I'm not talking about lv1 all jobs)

Overall, I feel there are three main categories:
-very ugly clothing, big chonky armors, "medieval" basics (but the ugliest ever, potato sacks, when they were really cool 'medieval' clothing in the past)
-modern clothing either form 1960 or cyberpunk/teenager/sports clothing
-asian-styled ('far eastern') and tuliyolal/various ethnic mixes (very very few pieces)

The most variety in ages and styles is clothing from some events and mog station

I wish they would put more non-armored non-average-waitress-style medieval and fantasy clothing... the new sets more or less do the thing!

About OP I'm not sure how a masculine man should have that is not already in the game, I always feel 'masculine clothing' is really similar in real life :confused: please share images of clothing you would like to see in the game, I'm really curious

LOL, don't be that guy pls. The endless trove of robes for healers, painted decorated nails and clothes with very specific bits of skin shown is what OP's talking about. Don't pretend there's no male/female intent behind that.

Oh, and why should the game revolve around you then ? The vast majority of the stuff released in recent years has strayed further and further away from what we were getting for a long while, ie more fantasy-related garments.

It's no use arguing with someone who can't even understand that men and women do have different bodyshapes and as such, they do need differently shaped clothes. This also true ingame, some of the clothes are clearly designed for female characters to wear them and don't look as good on male characters. Take wide shoulders for example...they totally change how an outfit which was made for a specific bodytype looks on you.

That being said, I can somehow understand the frustration of OP. I feel like a lot of gear, not all of it though, is being designed with female characters in mind, males..not so much, except maybe some glamour sets. Especially if you play a mage/healer. I understand their posts as the wish for more neutral looking gear.
