    As much as I agree on letting males wear bunny ears, I don't think Blade and Soul is the best example. The outfits in that game are ludicrous, the type you'd find strippers wearing. The last thing I'd want is for SE to take inspiration from the likes of Blade & Soul, TERA, etc.

    I think it's a great example, people are allowed to dress their character as they want. Why are you against the idea of them dressing their character as they want? It's not your call to make. People already dress their characters in bikinis and other silly or barely covering outfits in FF 14 as it is.

    Not to mention the Minfilia outfit.

    I'm not against the idea of people dressing their characters in dresses, bunny ears, a wedding dress on a male character, have at it! What I am sick of is the oversexualized outfits of other MMOs, it's one of the reasons I stray away from MMORPGs such as TERA or B&S, I'm sorry but 90% of the party looking like they work as medieval strippers doesn't appeal to me.

    What's wrong with looking like a stripper? My dragoon is already pole dancing for the loots. He should at least dress for the part.

    To each their own, as I said, I moved away from those games because high level armour looked like I was a stripper. Just a personal preference but I don't enjoy like my character looking like she just gave an Ul'dahn rich Lalafell merchant a stripdance. I'm glad that Yoshida didn't take that game in that direction, but they don't need to. What I'm okay with? Swimsuits, those are realistic and aren't high level armour, they're just event items and the the Thavnair sets fit into the lore, while maintaining a look of elegance and those are great to me. What I don't enjoy is blatant fanservice, I'll post a few examples... uhh, NSFW I guess?:








    I'm actually of the opinion that the censored versions look far better, but it's quite clear why F2P games go that route and it's due to them bringing more $$$. They keep the running from cash shop income unlike FFXIV.

    I would take the gear designs of all those games > ANY gear in ffxiv. FFXIV gear is hideous and extremely limiting.

    I don't consider any of these hideous, or limiting (whatever that's supposed to mean) in anyway, but to each their own.

    Image heavy:







    I googled Paladin AF1, and found this (modified) FFXI version, this is the stuff you'd find in TERA and is what I'd consider rather ugly, and limiting in terms of defense in battle. NSFW:

    It'd be nice if you didn't cherry pick Blade and Soul's outfits, especially bringing up the non-NA/EU version censorship.

    There are plenty of outfits that are not fan service, such as this one.



    It really isn't fair to cherry pick BnS outfits when we don't purposely pick out the various fan service outfits in FF 14.

    I don't have experience with Blade and Soul, as it's not released anywhere outside of Korea and maybe Japan/China too (not sure there) as of yet. I just googled Blade and Soul outfits and pasted a few that I found, and over 90% of them were skimpy, that's not an argument. As for whether or not that's representative of the game, I have no clue, but if the majority on google are skimpy I'm going to assume so. I'm not claiming the entire game is fan service and is rubbish, but it is very clear that it is heavily reliant on fanservice in order to make money.

    Edit: regardless of that, I'm expressing my opinion which is the dislike of such outfits. Why are you B&S fans getting so defensive? Different people hold different views.
