Vanity system feels more complex than it needs to be...

The same reason Ventures and Atmas go into your inventory instead of into your currency tab and key items; incentive to buy retainers.

In order to save me the headache of mixing different grades of gear, I'll just buy a grade 5.

Grade 5 only allows you to glamour ilvl 81+

They would also do it without an option to buy a retainer.
Just look how many item slots were needed for the materia system 1.0.
Same materia, same tier but 3 different stats = 3 item slots for the same materia + tier because only those with the same stats were stackable.

Maybe they do it to bring people to buy retainers, maybe they do it to bring people to use the MB more and play the market game (people complained that there is nothing worth to buy with gil)

Those prisms were selling for upwards of 14K wach last night....

And THAT is why it was retarded to get crafters involved in something like this. No way will I pay 50-100K to use this new system. SE and the crafters of Eorzea can keep it.

What really hurts is the prices... I wanted to put my tank in full Foestriker gear... just doing the legs/feet nearly cost me 14k.

You can't pay those ridiculous prices and then complain. They'll never go down unless people are patient.

A simple extra tab in character screen. Call it Costumes.
Make costume choices so you can save each costume. Buy extra costume slots.
And then all character gear slots with show/hide option so if u wanna play witthout show any chest piece u can do so. Put in the costume u want the look from. This is a system many mmo games use and it works great.
Why try make something "unique" when you have systems that works perfectly -.-

The extra tab, the extra slots. Even if they aren't on your screen, ie the window is closed, uses system memory. Something they are strained with on the PS3.

The ps3 version should been removed with the launch of ps4 version.

The ps3 version should been removed with the launch of ps4 version.

and the game would have lost half of the playerbase, great move.

The players are already running away from the ps3 version becouse of the bad graphics and slow old hardware. And also they have to limit the pc version so pc and ps4 players cant enjoy full graphic potentional of the game. You see it so clearly when you try zoom into gear and weapons. Very pixelated.

That is an awful suggestion. Wow, people sure do love to scapegoat the PS3!

They sure do, they forget about how DCUO has a vanity system that people here say they want but than they blame it on PS3 why it cant happen. Well people look again DCUO has the vanity system most people here say they want and its on the PS3. PS3 isnt holding anything back, its just SE excuse not to simplify it. Like someone stated on the first or second page, this Glamour system is trying to force people to buy the retainers nothing more and nothing less. Glamour system isnt to help crafters at all it is to force people to cave into buying retainers. DCUO has a simpler vanity system and thats on PS3, PC,NOW PS4. They don't include the crafter classes to make crafting worth it, thats to make you wanna purchase extra retainers. Glamour system= Buy more retainers. PS3 is only holding sky battle fates from being possible or something the deals with sky battling.
