Also, you keep trying to frame it as if we would be forcing you to wear different clothing, when we would not. You would still be in the same outfit on your screen and would not even know if someone had toggled the option on for you. No one is forcing anything upon you.
    Maybe it doesn't matter. But wanting to at the very least be seen the way I present myself is not attention seeking, it is how I prefer to be seen, rather than something I didn't choose. You don't have to look at me at all. But if you are going to, I still prefer you see what I see, which isn't all that unreasonable as something to want and is a common sentiment people share. If that makes me selfish, I don't really mind, especially not when my outfits are rarely immersion breaking anyway.

    And I'm just saying that looking at it from square enix's standpoint, I don't see why they would make glamour a big thing and then make an anti glamour system that defeats the purpose of it even if only for select people, ideally you want your concept to be good enough that you don't want people getting rid of it. But then you could say that about anything, like muting bard performance, so I'm not really getting anywhere with this.

    Nothing says “lore-friendly” like mismatched armor, which you’d probably be seeing a lot of!

    Bard performance is audible and can be heard in all directions whether you like it or not. Glamour on the other hand is sight. You can choose to not to look at something, just move your eyes. While you can't choose to not hear something with your ears.

    The toggle option should just be putting a blindfold on your character to completely blacken your screen, now the OP won't be able to see anyone's glamour and it would work in the same vein as putting earplugs in for muting Bard performance. It doesn't break lore and solves everyone's problems!

    You can mute it.

    Just a personal opinion: but for me it's because while I make glams for my characters; I do it because I make them look how I want them to look and couldn't care less if someone else cares about what my character looks like.

    I did read through your post, but I took the entire second part of the post as sarcastic and absent-mindedly focused on the first bit. "...and it would work in the same vein as putting earplugs in for muting Bard performance" did not exactly state to me that you were aware of the performance mute at first glance after the blindfold bit. Sorry for that.
