Proportionate Bodies

[Ralts]

Why do we need to sexualize everything? Are most of you THAT horny and/or desperate? I'm all for more customization options, but I rather have them create more faces to choose from, more hairstyle, maybe different pupils or more eye colors, new horns/ear shapes. The Final Fantasy franchise rarely goes perverted, so I doubt they'd add these sliders. Ask for something more realistic.

I don't know if it was intentionally meant to be taken to this extent, thinking it's just due to a fault in wording. I do agree that it'd be nice to have additional options for more detailed adjustments to the proportions of the body of our desire for our character. Nothing about a chest or butt slider is perverted, unless the person is either doing it intentionally , or is that far into the gutter with no control of their perverse thoughts.

I do also agree that we could do with a fresher take on the colour pallet that we've been given for hair/eye colors and the like. My problem is that the current options (despite 'variety') are a little too consistent on the type of contrast that they allow. Like, I can't fathom why true auburn/red hair isn't an option. It's a basic colour option that I'm surprised we do not have.

I 100% agree! I want different hairstyles and different eye options. I'm also really sick of people asking for butt sliders! I never understood how people can get off on pixels >_>

We're not asking for this so we can get off on our characters. We just want them to look better. Besides men need their equipment as well.

What I'm saying is just my opinion, but: I don't think that the people posting in this thread about wanting butt sliders (or more body sliders, in general) are asking for them so that they can "get off" to their virtual character. I want a butt slider for my main character so she can have more curves and volume. Just because I want her to not look like a stick, or not be top-heavy, does not make me a pervert. It's unfortunate that people correlate wanting more body sliders for more variety with being perverts.

We already get 3-4 new hairstyles every major patch. And I'm sure they will add more with the release of 3.5 and 4.0. Most races have several different eye options already. I'm all for them expanding upon the character creation and adding more features to it. But I'm not liking how us asking for body sliders are being accused of being perverts, or how people want us to "respect" how they may be offended by seeing virtual characters with non-pancake butts and "jigglies" (boob physics already exist in this game) running around. I don't go out of my way to try and blatantly offend people, but I disagree with the notion that those of us with different opinions should just remain silent to placate those who would be "offended" by them.

I don't think you understand the point of wanting body sliders at all, we just want to have actual body types instead of painfully unrealistic twiggy bodies.

If FFXIV body types offend you so much, there's other games you can play too :P

Painfully unrealistic? *Cracks up laughing*

Snip.

I don't believe i ever said i was offended? I just don't want boy hips.

Whoa! Hold on just a second. It doesn't have to be about sexualizing your character. We can already do this, and don't need help from sliders. Appreciation of the body form across all races is called aesthetics. There is nothing pervy about making your character visually appealing even if this entails bigger boobs, buldges, or curvier bodies. You are the one that has to look at him/her every moment of the game you're logged on, so I think it is actually quite important that you like what you're looking at.
