Well I can only assume that their opinions are based on whether the outfit fits the setting of the game or sticks out like a sore thumb. From what I see, the New World outfits still have all the stylings of normal FFXIV gear just with a slight Western motif with the fringes

Whereas these wings are just straight-up generic angel wings with no FF spin on them, even the FFVII wings had stylized anatomy (and the wings that appeared on Rinoa were not physical wings, they were just a manifestation of the Sorceress power unlike that fanmade picture posted earlier)

But you're never going to live down the tacky Korean MMO reputation these things have, or that they are a magnet for bad fanfiction writing and poorly made OCs.
