Hidde Glamours Locally (& other graphically immersive options)

[Caurcas]

Just for that I might fantasia back to Au Ra.

Totally wasn't considering it already, I swear.

Honestly it's not the race, it's the stereotype that is real with how they tend to glamour. Plus male Au Ra groomer meme being disturbingly on the mark.

That armor looks very ok. No problem at all with that. Seems like something a "tank" would actually wear.

so you're fine with the completely clashing armguards? because i'm not.

and this tier is very hit or miss on whether unglammed BiS looks good at all: https://imgur.com/a/sN3DF9Y

you really want to see a bunch of people wandering around identically dressed like that?

I get what you mean honestly, I think what you're looking for is an aesthetic cohesion or something similar. 1.0 and FFXI shared a similar style in armor and world with both feeling very grounded in their fantasy elements, and that made the outlandish stuff (Garleans and Zilart) feel otherworldly or exotic just for how outside the established aesthetic of the world they were. And it made them more special for it in my opinion. So while yes everything that seems out of place in XIV has been given lore reasons for existing I can agree that for some folks it can be jarring or at least incongruous.

Do the Regalia, 2018-esque Japanese fashion, Korean historical outfits, mascot outfits, cartoon character minions, jets, and cyborgs exist canonically in-universe? Yes. Can they still be considered weird by people expecting a more traditional fantasy aesthetic regardless? Absolutely.

And yeah I know FF has long been mixing fantasy and sci-fi elements in their games but I argue that they did a better job of blending them and/or making the reason for them being so mismatched a lot better. Not that it bothers me at the end of the day, it tickles me to no end that I can see a Miqo'te cosplaying as Korone Inugami or someone riding basically Mechagodzilla. I just don't see a problem either if someone wants a toggle system to swap out some of the more "interesting" outfits in the game.

Thank you, much appreciated. I agree with you : )

A toggle where it just defaults other players into job gear would be fine. If they are <50 just show them in some basic armour set. 50-59 lvl 50 job gear, 60-69 60 job gear etc
Gives you a good idea of how strong the player is and makes distinguising their job easy too.
Not something I would use but if lore and immersion is what you are going for that seems an ok way to do it. Just a lot of effort for devs for something not a whole lot of people would use.

actually having a bunch of people in the af gear (the first set at least) would go directly against the lore. off the top of my head whm, sch, blm, smn, and mnk are all jobs that are either straight up illegal or have had their membership wiped out in eorzea.
saying you want a toggle is fine i guess, but its not any more immersive or lore friendly than the frog suit. its basically the same as wanting a bigger ass modded in, personal taste.

isn't there also a mod that makes everything lalafell too lol

anyways in regards to OP - get over yourself

To be honest..... When you can't show of your glamour to other people.... what is the Point of glamour at all.

You can still show it to other people, you will not know if people have the toggle on or not. So you have not lost that experience of sharing your glam, unless you go around asking people; “PST, hey do you see my glam? What do you think of it? Tell me exactly what I am wearing so I know you are not one of those dirty glam hiders!”

Which is the website that currently has such and most FFXIV mods available for download please?

Since mods are against the TOS officially, we can only discuss them in the abstract here on the official forums - can't say things like "go use this specific mod name from this mod website." Sorry.
