You never "specifically" said that the older ones shouldn't get it, but you emphasised Viera and Hrothgar, and said (copy-pasted from your original post) "it would be nice if they were more unique than the races we have now in their fashion". Therefore, suggesting that only they should get customised gear.

If everyone gets new custom gear, great.

But not "these two races get something special" while everyone else misses out.


I've been through the same struggle keeping my male Au Ra dressed in things that suit him, but it would be a great deal more frustrating if other races got special treatment and race-specific alterations to gear, but he doesn't.

Seriously, if they haven't made any effort to adjust clothing for Au Ra build that direly needs it (eg. simply stretching the Hyuran model for collars and pauldrons until you get things like the Lv70 SMN relic that stabs him in the face, instead of modifying them to fit properly) then I don't see why they would make extra-special new designs for these new races. Especially if they haven't even got helmets sorted out.

It would be nice to have it for everyone, but not so nice to have it for just the new races while the others go neglected - unless they intend to go back and modify the others as well.

(And of course if they did modify it? People wouldn't be happy about that either because they wanted the standard version and they're stuck with the altered one.)
