Let Us Change Skin-Color at Aesthetician

[MOZZYSTAR]

I agree. We could spend all day in the sun and get a tan in real life, so this kind of option should be available in the Aesthetician. (never heard of tanning beds?)

With the blue, green, pink, brown, white, grey, and so on and so forth shades... Yeah, good luck getting that variety from a "tanning bed." My view is: if IRL hair dresser can't do it, then it's best for Fantasia.

Let us bodypaint with make up, then.

It's the last fashion in Radz-at-Han!

It kinda makes sense for the aesthetician to transform people with color. Fantasia could have been for everything else.

How exactly does it make sense for a hair stylist to change your skin colour...? Pray tell. XD
P.S. I doubt SE would do anything that would make them lose profit.

This thread has been going since 2014. I think if it was going to happen it would have happened by now. Plus, those sweet sweet Fantasia dollars are telling them to not do this. I've seen people buy Fantasia just to do this. Heck, i'm considering it myself cause I made my Roe's skin a shade too light by accident during character creation. I'd love for this to happen, I just don't think they will because they want people to spend money in the Mog Station.

If the Aesthetician can add or remove the horns that comes with some Au Ra hairstyles (esp. some of the male hairstyles have horns coming out from all over their heads) and add or remove the scales of my face and also remove or change the color of the limbal rings (or scars for some other races), he could possibly learn how to change my eye and skin color as well.

So, lore-wise it actually makes no sense that he can't. xD

If the aesthetician could change skin colour I'd never buy a fantasia again. Which is probably why it'll never happen

Those are race-specific styles you're talking about, so aesthetically they likely should have the extra horns but they don't translate to neutral styles for whatever reason.

Lmfao, ^ this. XD I have only ever bought fantasias to change my skin tone pretty much. XD

So lets go with this Logic:

Be able to change Skin color.

Next people will request "Let us Change Eye Color. Havent you heard of contacts!", "Let us change eye shape and facial features! Plastic Surgery, duh!", "Let us change height, Magic can solve that problem. Geez!"

Youre going to have character design traits that have to stay on the cash shop for Fantasia to be a sellable item. The more you take from that, the less value Fantasia has. This will impact sales ultimately. Btw, Just because we have subs doesnt mean that cash shop stuff is inherently evil. Changing name and character design has almost always been a feature that people paid for, whether you had a sub or not. Just the way things are.

And if you want FFXIV to stick around, you better not be so harsh on teh cash shop. SE is a business ultimately, and if they think its not profitable to run FFXIV, they will bring it to an end. More profit usually is better for us players as a whole. Does it mean that theyre gonna nickle and dime? To an extent sure, but theyre making money vaults scrooge mcduck style and saying screw you to the player base. Theyre using some of that money on FFXIV stuff as well as other SE properties. Meaning, theyre probably taking that money and reinvesting quite a bit of it in making more money. Something smart businesses do.

you don't know how each race tans. Who is to say the different races don't tan blue or green?
