Crossdressing or RIOT

[Settiesama]

Almost every MMO has gender locked gear with little to no complaints, I don't get why it's such a big deal in this one. The only mistake they did for it was to have female only gear with no male locked gear to go with it. I bet if we even have this gender lock removed, the same people complaining will find another really minor problem to 'riot' about.

Please also remember this is a Japanese based game and their own views of cross-dressing needs to be accounted for.

Probably because we are wanting for equivalents for gender-locked gear, but the norm ends up being that a number of female pieces have no equivalent for males while male pieces usually have a female variant or they're unisex (usually being the keyword, not always the case).

A number of people are fine with the locks, but not with the lack of equivalents, while some would rather do away with locks period. Personally, I fall into the former category; if they had equivalents like in GW2, it would be nice..

I think you misread the rest of my post, and even that of the OP. He wants the locks removed so crossdressing is possible, I stated in my post that SE not having equivalents was the only wrong thing. It's not just with gear either though, people on here also seem to want hairstyles to be for every race/gender, they don't want anything to be locked to certain types of people. It takes so much from them as individual races and genders, and just ends up being dull with no special things bound to them, save for ears and horns.

Snip

I was more answering in terms of why it's a big deal here more than anything. :P

Oh right, I should of worded it more clearly. I was specifically meaning the removing of gender locks.

Pffs im no He

what people want from "special" is freedom to create rather than restrictions, hence many people asking both here and in person
