Remove Gender-Lock From Gear / Glamour Please

[Kolsykol]

Meoni got to interview Yoshi P and had someone else there too ( no clue who ) who asked about this.
And Yoshi P basically stated the obvious, the devs aren't against it and would like to do it but they have limited resources and things need to be redone to fit the models and it's basically not worth it to please a minority even if they'd want to.

There's some cases people could argue that it'd be a lot easier or could already be done but I dunno I am not going to pretend to know the exact details as to what'd go into it.
It's easy to speculate but might not be so easy in practice.

But we seriously don't need a billion new threads about this every week.
The devs are aware...
It's just not a priority and I don't think that it should be.
Saying that doesn't mean that I wouldn't want it to all be unlocked, but you kinda need to look at it from the pov of the whole and trying to please as many people as possible with limited resources.
Everything you do means that you're not doing something else as a dev.

I know this might upset some people, but at the same time in most cases you already have very similar gear to the male equivelant on female characters ( especially leg pieces, 99.9% of leg pieces are pants in different colors.... ) and the amount of people playing male characters that would unironically wear a dress or a skirt are a VERY small group.
Considering how extremely rare skirts and shorts are I don't sympathize much with people who get upset when female characters get it because again... They're extremely rare do you really need every single leg piece in the entire game to be pants?
But I do sympathize a bit more with the latter because male characters really do have more limited fashion.

Ultimately they're trying to appeal to different fantasies and preferences, masculine and feminine.
And they're going to align with the typical sex.
The reason why we have gendered gear in the game is precisely because the devs do want to offer options, but nothing is perfect.

I do think that when we're talking about mogstation gear tho it's a bit different because we're paying extra for it, I'd also say the same about event gear.


Edit: Like again when I am reading the earlier posts again.

'' I wish female characters could wear pants ''.


............... What game are you playing?
Some of y'all act as if just because one leg piece every now and again isn't pants it somehow means that you have no options.
Just what.

I get that sometimes you might prefer the other version, but not every single gear piece in the whole game needs to fit your tastes either.
And you do have other options you can replace it with and barely notice a difference if at all.
