Hempen Camise for other races

...while actively denying more visual combinations that would ACTUALLY enhance uniqueness.

See, I disagree with this. If they were all race unlocked, the less favorable models would die and become useless. Think about the hair from 2.0- each race got a style specifically tailored to them, and then once the elezen hair (the long hair with the single braid in the back) came out everyone wanted it, and regardless of it being from fan demand or not, SE made it available to everyone and that's the single most popular hairstyle I see now. Most ignore the hyur dreadlocks, and the roe's long mohawk. When you remove the race lock, the masses flock to a "favorite," it becomes the norm, and all other options (that you would have had to work with, with locks in place) become the norm and lose any sense of uniqueness. I'm not saying everything should be locked behind something but having a few unique options per race creates a unique identity for everyone, and if your race doesn't cater to the identity you want, be creative and make it work given the options you have.

I want the Miqote top on my highlander.

I don't really know if more undergarmets for our characters is needed but some more casual clothes would be great. I know wow had lots of nearly naked options but i see enough barely clothed players in pug primal battles as it is.... lol

But hey, more casual clothes would be great... Like, some more medieval stuff. Link's outfit from Zelda maybe?

I'm pretty happy with the new expedition outfit but I'm still debating glamouring it. It's nice and frilly, very poofy. I know there are long dresses too but they don't seem appropriate for battle lol...

Not to be a drag on your dream but I really hope this doesn't happen. I hope for quite the opposite actually. We need more racial gear, not more amalgamation.

Same here ^^ , Need more race specific gear!

Also they need to put proper underwear for highlander. Are Ala Mhigo people really love bondage suit??

I disagree in return. I have several racial hempen tops that I like the looks of, and would love to wear. Elezen, miqo'te, au ra, roegadyn... They all have different aesthetics, and would fit different types of glamour. Not to mention that not everyone has the same tastes in hempen top that you do; you may like only one of them, but others like several of them. Or like a different one than you do. Basically this: Right now, you have every elezen being forced to use the elezen hempen top or none of them. If they were all unlocked in some way, you'd have some elezen with the elezen top, other elezen with the roegadyn top, yet others with the midlander top, and so on. You'd have some who'd go with both top+bottom from the same set, and some who'd combine pieces from different sets.
In short, unlocking them would allow for a lot more diversity than we have now.

Midlanders would like to have a word with SE regarding that... They were the only ones who never got a racial preview of a hair.

When you remove the race lock, the masses flock to a "favorite," it becomes the norm, and all other options (that you would have had to work with, with locks in place) become the norm and lose any sense of uniqueness.

They might for a while, yes. But eventually things tend to even out a bit more. It also allows SE to gather more statistical information regarding which hairstyles (for example) people like the most, which means they can create more hairstyles that cater to that aesthetic, giving the "majority" a wider selection which means some of them will switch and thus reduce the number of people using the "most popular hairstyle". Just because they don't announce "most popular hairstyle" doesn't mean they can't get to those statistics (sure, it's possible they can't, but their lack of producing statistics isn't proof of it).

Males would have a similar set but with a masculine flare. Instead of a cat shaped keyhole the guys top could have 3 openings shaped like cat scratches at an angle. Like the top got shredded in battle.

Men get a bear shaped keyhole, of course. and a bear claw print at the bottom.

Bear claw print, eh? (some? most?) Roegadyn's will definitely wear that.

[Vivi_Bushido]

Actually, y'know what? After some thought... If dudes get the same outfit, I'd be all for it. If not, no dice.

I want to see a bunch of burly Roegadyn prancing around in panties while wearing Miqo'te ears. ;3

Personally I don't want to see it on either gender. Female toons have plenty of bikinis and underwear, we don't need any more.

I'm convinced that every single person in this thread who advocates "diversity" and "needing more racially locked gear" would very quickly reconsider their stance if their race was assigned clothing that they found uglier than the others.
