Request for All Gear Gallery mode

What I would like to see implemented is an all gear gallery mode. The player would have access to previewing Mogstation items, all dungeon gear, PVP gear, tome/special, and normal NPC gear.

This could be unlocked via the Fashion Report NPC or the Weaver's Guild at a lv15 quest or so. Just like Glamours and Dyes.

I think it would be best to use the character creation mystery room with the low lighting, or, preferably actually, the dressing room from the Chapel of the Twelve. It has very bright, very pretty natural lighting. And we could also have that calming and utterly underused theme that plays within, and in Eulmore's Beehive.

Now, I know someone will fight against this idea, because they don't want anything mogstation to so much as touch the game. And to that I say, *points to Calamity Salvager.* It's not the full catalog but there is ample selection of glam gear right in the game. And if anything, it would help people because who knows, maybe it looks like hot trash and you just spent cash on an undyable clipping nightmare. There are people who will not read the fine print, this is helping them.

tl;dr

Ideally, the player would have a Market Board like menu with a search bar. An extended "Try On" set up meant for seeing everything the game has to offer. It may even encourage the running of old and dead content for long forgotten, Market Prohibited items.

I would love this. It would be a great way to create new outfits that I may not think of since trying on dungeon/24 man gear is next to impossible without finding someone else that is wearing it.

Too add onto this, it is not reliable either to ask. I've /shouted nicely for people to link a specific item. I've even got "get it yourself" as a response. With this, one could just do like a trip to Macy's and try it on.

It'd be useful. I'm all for it!

Would be awesome!
though maybe leaving out the mog station stuff for the reason you mentioned yourself.

Add an "Appearance Log" like the one WoW has.

Question then, what is wrong with wanting to give additional support to the game as well as other Square Enix projects? Which is where the money goes.

Also, people miss seasonal events all the time by virtue of not playing when said events happened. What makes you so averse to them seeing how those glams and whatnot looked since an image with a race they may not even play does not do it justice? People will always have disposable income be it cash or corn. And I think it is unfair to shun how they want to spend it.

I honestly don't care one way or another, I just mean most people would be against it.

I know I would absolutely use this feature, and if it did connect to the Mog Station then there is a pretty good chance it would convince me to spend the occasional cash there.

Why? Why leave it out? Don't you think people may want to preview it before spending real cash on it? The Mog Station supports this game and keeps the price of subs low.

So? It's high time those people get educated on the important role the Mog Station plays. My in game purchases keeps subs low for everyone who has trouble affording them. People should just be grateful that I'm willing to make those purchases. I spent probably $50 last month not including my sub and retainers.

Yes please, i've wanted this for so long since theres really no good way to try on glams that we or no one we know has. This would help so much for glam hunters, and it'd be nice if there was a search system too with tags on each glam, like if we wanted just coats or something we could search for only those.

I cant really see why anyone would disagree with your idea, it's just one more quality of life improvement that would benefit everyone who hunts glams and hinder no one.

There is always something disagreeable. I can think of some counter arguments to my suggestion myself. None reasonable, but still there nonetheless.

I would hope that this thread receives enough feedback to be floated higher and to be considered at least. If it is impossible due to server load, then so be it. A direct rejection is welcome acknowledgement all the same.

I fully support this idea, especially with Mog Station items. I would honestly think this would be a no brainer. I don't mean to sound trollish, but I'm genuinely curious: what possible valid reason could anyone have for opposing it?

Add a toggle to determine whether or not it shows Mog Station items. Simple enough.

Similarly, a toggle to hide items that are no longer available, like the Yokai Watch weapons or the Amatsu outfit.

Although I would much rather have items be obtainable in-game as opposed to being purchased with real money, I understand the merit in the MogStation's existence. The items are after all, optional. Simple as that.
I see no reason why there shouldn't be an option to preview MogStation items. You'd be able to make more informed purchases and know what looks good on you and what doesn't. Screenshots can only do so much, and you're not always going to be able to have someone link it to you. I would really like to be able to preview MogStation furniture too. Nothing sucks more than paying for something only to see that it doesn't work as well as you thought and wind up throwing it into storage.

If I were to oppose this idea I would say thus.

1. Lore wise it wouldn't make sense for someone to be able to know what glams from a specific location are without having been there.
2. It tarnishes the spirit of exploration and learning.
3. It encourages mogstation sales. And less purchases from mogstation means more glams possibly added in game.
4. Resources no matter how small could/should be spent elsewhere.
5. It adds strain on the servers which wouldn't make it worth implementing.

Just off the top of my head if I were to argue against it. But counter point in order, Market Board, Market Board, Mogstation helps the game and SE grow, experimental qol is not a bad thing, no one would know this for sure but an actual dev on the team.

I hadn't thought of any of that before, and thank you for the answer! :)

I'm of the same mind that resources acquired through the Station could only financially boost FF and SE, thus funding more development of the game itself (at least I would hope!) But points one and two struck home the closest to me, as I'm in love with both the game lore and the very spirit of exploration. The idea of something new and wonderful possibly being around every undiscovered corner is always a delight to me. :3

Still, I do have a lazy streak when it comes to my alts. Chapter and level boosts are a bit of an addiction for me, and Mog Station is the only available dealer that can sate it. XD

I would love to see that implemented

Give Jandelaine a "Dressing room" option and do this plz. Move to a private instance with all glamour options available and the ability to save looks along with tooltips mentioning where to acquire the pieces as well..

+1

There's a lot of stuff I kinda want but don't know how it'd go with my current looks.

Sadly the team is busy right now adding to the game all your amazing suggestions.

All for it, trying to make glamour can sometimes be annoying when you don't know a green/blue item exist that would fit perfectly.

Would add that when you select the item, it displays where it's from.
So if you have an Ivalice piece of gear, it will show the raid name. Similar with crafted or npc gear.

That would be quite nice to have such feature. And while we're at it, how about having some kind of housing furniture preview?

You can preview furniture from the housing menu while inside your house or apartment.

I don't need all the bells and whistles, just having a searchable list (with a good search, like the housing item preview, not the marketboard search that can't search partial names that aren't the first word) that lets me click the "try on" option on a link would be fantastic. I hate having to ask "hey, does anyone have this <dungeon item piece> and can link it to me?" when it comes to stuff not on the MB/vendors.

What?

Related to this, I'd like a 'dungeon journal' of sorts similar to WoW. Not necessarily the part that explains mechanics, but the part that tells you what pieces of loot drop from what bosses. For crafted gear, it's easy to just go on the mb and try things out. But for gear you need to farm from dungeons, it would be nice to be able to see what sets are from what dungeons and try them on in game, to see what dungeons you might want to farm for a glam and just what hidden gems out there you may have overlooked while leveling.

Hm, weird. I feel like it definitely used to be a thing where I'd search for things by partial name matches in the MB and not have them show up unless it was the first word. Maybe it was for partials which don't match the start of words (so camp would find campfire, but fire wouldn't)? Not at home right now to check if I'm crazy or not on that front too, though.

Not sure if this helps but I was trying to /isearch Dzemael the other day and being the lazy person I am I just searched "dz" assuming it's the only thing that has that combo, but instead all my Kudzu armor flooded chat. If MB works anything like /isearch it will also find partial mid-word, but also not at home to check.

I also remember having trouble with partial searches on MB but in my case it's usually if I accidentally include a space, which it will count as a character.
