Well.. yes. And if this were real life and/or I was making public critiques of peoples appearances and choices even for their virtual characters that would be deplorable. However as we are speaking of a change that would only affect the perception of the person who doesn't wish to see such things there is no downside to it unless you're the kind of person who can ONLY enjoy themselves knowing that everyone around them is experiencing exactly what they wish people to see.. which I think is pretty obnoxious by most social standards.
There are still gameplay elements to be required like knowing your partymates positions and possibly skills they are using, so to a point you do need to know that there are players there and what they are doing. However if we're being totally truthful I wouldn't be opposed to a toggle to not render anyone but myself or pertinent other players in the overworld: People doing the same fate or in close proximity who are targeting the same mobs, however that's another thread for a different day.

interesting topic actually. I mean, sure why not, being able to turn off glamour. It doesnt effect anyones gameplay and people still can glamour whatever they want. I wonder why people are against it so much, it has no effect on you. So many people mod glam in this game anyway, and only they can see it (if others have not the same mods as them) so no harm done. And since so many are pro glamour mods, with the argument it has no effect on other players, it should be no problem if people want to turn it off.
"Similarities" is the key word right there. The only similarities between the real world and an MMO is the fact that there are lots of different people from all over the world interacting with one another. Sure you can leave an area in the game as you can in the real world if there's something there that you find inappropriate, but the difference is that in a video game you can make changes and additions to the world so you don't have to while in the real world you can't. It's far easier to deal with situations like this in a video game than it is in the real world, that's the whole point. So in effect I'm not "lying" about your argument, I'm just boiling it down to it's most basic component.Sir that is not the argument I used at all. I ask you refrain from lying/misrepresenting my argument. I am saying that MMO and IRL have similar interactions being they are constructed to be like a world themselves. That being said some features are bound to be derived from our world into theirs. I am not so dumb as to not know the difference. But if you are so naive that you can say they have no similarities then I would say the "save your breath" would be appropriate if I were to try and engage you in conversation.

Gamers don't die, we just go AFK

No, I have paid a fortune and grinded countless hours across 3 characters to assemble my glamour collection. You're going to look at my cute outfits until your eyes melt and you're going to like it.
Also... you think you want to see the chaotic mishmash of random/BiS armour pieces underneath people's glamours but you really don't. That eldritch horror was not meant for mortal eyes.

Make a party of 8 friends. I mean you did say something along the line of player choice. You have the choice to do this. Not only that your immersion won't be broken. And it bothers you it doesn't harm you. Lets not try to make the impact of the frog seem bigger then it is. Make your own party join a strict glam FCs (they actually exist). You have choices you just refuse to use them.

But there is also many people making glamours that look amazing, some people put a lot of work into the glamours they make and I feel like it would be boring to not see people's glamours.
and.. so you wouldn't use the option. This isn't making anyone do something they don't want to.

Well then I bring up the modding argument again. So many people use mods, the glam so many people put in a lot of thought into is either way a) looking completely different on their part or b) is so broken on their screen that your character is actually naked. Yet so many people say "mods are okay because it doesnt effect the other players gameplay" and neither would do an option to hide someones glam.
