So, it seems that the reason why we can't have both genders right now is due to content and gear fixing, and I came up with a possible solution. Instead of taking content away from other areas, they could do gear lvl 2-49 51-59 and 61-69 show as the racial gear, and maybe not show head gear on the missing genders. That way, they can ensure a smooth release for both on 6.0 without hurting the game and ensuring that the only ones who "suffer" Are those who will take full advantage of the missing genders

What exactly do you mean by 'content'? Like dungeons and the like? That is probably done by an entirely separate team than the ones doing gear probably. /thread

If I had a gil for everytime I read "gender" on the forums, I'd own the Market Board by now.

05-26-2019, 12:33 AMHyoMinParkI think the reason they gave is that they were trying to appeal to 2 subsets of players: ones who had wanted Viera since seeing the pre-HW concept art, and ones that wanted a more beastial race after seeing Lupin in 4.0. So they tried to appease both.Quote:

Don't forget you are cutting away like 50%, if not even more, of possible glamour options right now.
Even if it's just for the "missing" genders it is a very bad deal.
So i don't think you would please so many fans of the "missing" genders with your suggestion.
Edit:
Just look at it from the point of a new play using the "missing" genders.
They would have to look like their starting outfit till they reach level 50 or buy something from the mogstation or market board.
Also why exclude the level caps? -

The biggest problem besides making sure all the old gears fit is also commitment. Is the dev team ready to handle the load of adding these genders and continuing to consume resources on them with each update with the same resources allocated to them from SE?
