[Suggestion] Remove the role restrictions on the YoRHa gear?

[spf1200]

So you don't get to wear it... it's pretty simple. Sorry but homogenizing the gear so everyone looks the same doesn't make for diversity which I think is a good thing. You're entitled to your view and I think the dev's feel the same way I do.

How does giving many more options mean everyone is going to look the same?

I'm done responding here... but having some things that are for a specific roles makes that gear unique for that role. It increases the diversity because not everyone can wear it. It's not a question of having every role wearing the SAM YORHA top that makes it more diverse. It just makes people look the same and I'm not in favor of that. We got at great Level 1 glamor coffer. I think that was wonderful. I also think it's wonderful that some items are role specific.

Have fun getting them to change it. If they do fine but not something I'm in favor of.

I'm glad you shared your opinion with us and while I may not agree with you, I can see your viewpoint. There is enough diversity among the designs which means that not everyone would be wearing the same one.

Even though they probably won't change it, I at least hope they consider it!

Oh no, don't get me wrong - I absolutely agree with that! I love more gear options for each class but in this case, I think an exception could be made. Tanks and healers already share the same model (at least in the female version) as well as the Ranged DPS and NIN/MNK (At least the top halves). It's an exception that could benefit everyone. Adding a currency could increase the playability of the raid and it is a collaboration, so exceptions can be made!

Why should the NieR:A stuff be the special one to be role unrestrictive, what about the new PvP set that has 3 colours of the same outfit, most healer and caster sets, even among the 7 sets they currently design for they tend to have a reskin somewhere (usually 2) so the NieR:A set isn't unique in its reusing an outfit more than once. If they did it for one they may feel pressured to do them for everything, and if they do decide to unlock them all, what are you willing to give up for it? more unique glam outfits in the future? Hairstyles? If the devs did it during their spare time it would be one thing but they shouldn't have to give up their spare time just so there was no resource cost for SE. They have done plenty already in their own time, if this request was to be followed through i want it at no expense to anything we are meant to get (the stuff they have a vague idea but haven't finalized yet) nor start diminishing the amount of different outfits we get per set of gear.

I understand how you feel there and I felt the same way, but then also I thought that novelties don't last forever and eventually people will just move on the next "glamour of the month", so some looks can still be unique over time.
