Can we please get more cool looking outfits for male characters?

[Arrius]

I don't see why they're being uncomfortable about it. They've developed much more revealing outfits for men before and this bothers them?

Maybe they're just imagining the female version on the males but they can freely make a male version. Still, it's pretty pathetic.

Whatever reason that was, it has even gotten the Devs convinced. And that's no small feat to do, unless the rest were halfway on the boat with that point of view already.

There may also be a cultural component at play, which is why I don't think it'll happen until there's more input on the male bunny outfit from more JP players rather than them thinking it's just another "#balmung" thing.

The bunny outfit was literally asked about at the Shanghai fanfest. Its a little more than a #balmung thing.

rather than quote all the posts from 35 pages of this thread, ill just ask 1 question. What is the major issue that people are having with male outfits? In my opinion there is nothing wrong with having distinct outfits for male and female characters, and some people are acting as if there is some major injustice against male players. What am I missing...?

- unequal amount of glamour
- unequal amount of effort sunk into glamour

The first post neatly sums it up, you could have at least read that.

Pretty much this. The only outfits that I'd definitively say men won out on are the Garo non-melee DPS/tank outfits, but that's just a personal preference on my part. Everything else is where they constantly are stiffed.

Were talking glamour specific gear?

Maybe I'm out to lunch but i think most of the male gear looks great. The summer tops and all that stuff, for me, break my immersion and I don't care about them. Not to say that it doesn't matter to the community at large. People are talking about quitting the game because of that... which is not evident in the first post.

Males:
a. get access to less gear period
b. get less exclusive gear (ie, thav bolero, sailor set, wedding tux, gambler sets, aymeric and cid hairstyles were all made unisex)
c. are held pretty low on the priority totem pole (The Bunny Set™, females getting back to back exclusives on cash shop, males getting recycled assets vs. females getting new models etc).

SE's solution to a & b was dumping the 2.0 scion sets into the cash shop and calling it a day
SE's solution to c continues to be the ever popular "please look forward to it :^)"

Is it like in RL also? :P

There are many, MANY fashion choices for men, both cheap and expensive. Both designer and Wal-Mart brand. Fashion choices from all eras. Males in real life can also wear female clothing and vice versa.
There is no overlord that immediately teleports to a man's house and rips his "Juicy" print sweatspants and his bunny ears off.

Real life argument is stupid.

Number wise, you're right - Woman tend to need more pieces of clothes in general, compared to men. Easiest example is probably the bra and all their variations, functional and fashionable.
