When will we get more traditionally masculine hair/clothes?

[Nilroreo]

not only that but the feminine hairs look more child oriented and too cutesy.

Agree. most Au Ra hairstyles just aren't for me for this reason. There's one somewhat but not too feminine hairstyle already available in game that i'd kill to have. Only problem, its exclusive to male miqo'te . Also why does Varshahn's hairstyle (adventure) change into something completely different for females?

Or some armor on healers instead of the same feminine healing robes?

I feel like a less restrictive Glamour system would at least partially alleviate this issue. Has this ever been a widely requested thing?

If you want peak masculinity, just go bald. Baldness is a result of high testosterone, after all.

Who told you that nonsense?

Not testosterone but dihydrotestosterone:
WP: Dihydrotestosterone - Biological Function
High levels of DHT promote facial and body hair growth but inhibit crown hair growth. That's why a disproportionately high number of men with prodigious beards are also bald or balding.

Not only would masculine gear be nice (especially for healer sets), but definitely "traditional" gear. Nearly all the glamour gear added is something that looks like it belongs in Phantasy Star Online 2 or a much more futuristic game. I know there's no time period you can really compare the game to in real life, especially so after the last expansion, but I want to look like an adventurer ready to go out and fight/explore not like I'm about to hit up the skate park or mall.

Less restrictions? YES. Glamour game not so great due to the class/job/role restrictions. And there's only so much you can do with level 1 glamours before everyone looks alike (which we do). The general consensus is that everything but AF gear should be unrestricted and/or if you've got the specific gear for the appropriate job level, then said gear (glamour) could be available across all other jobs.

What is masculine hair? Something like this?

hair like the NPCs i listed would be a good start

Im a female playing females but absolutely wanted to voice my support for this.

[MonsutaMan]

"The Monsuta Man" is actually "The Monsuta Woman" because the majority of male options look feminine, so I figured, "Why not just play a straight up female?"

No regrets.

I would really like to see beard options. I was really looking forward to getting the stubble for everyone, only for that to simply be released as an extra hyur head only (They even said about taking so long with it because they wanted to get it to fit each face and it was a big undertaking).

I know it's not ideal, but I would like something like stubble to be added to the facepaint. They added freckles to this, so stubble wouldn't be a problem (but they seriously need to look at the available colour choices as they're very limited currently).

More beard options in the extras tab would be much more welcome to things like scars (the scars look a bit silly to me tbh - like when a kid draws one on with marker at halloween, and they would fit easily into the facepaint options for those that do like them).
I do understand just how awful most of the beards look in this game however. They tried adding a few as head gear when this was first discussed, but all we got were a mustache and (terrible) santa beard.


as for clothes, I'd really like that leather jacket we have to have something like a tshirt under it instead of a turtleneck, of all things. Imagine the leather jacket we have, but with a Primals band t-shirt under it! I would lose my mind. They could also do a sleeveless version of the same thing or even a denim jacket. I have faith the devs will give us stuff like this in due course though.

Male pattern Baldness is a form of genetic Alopechia, DHT does not have a massive effect on balding it does have an effect on the strength of the hair. You can have really thick and strong hair and still bald for that reason. Also, DHT is relatively low in men because its really strong.

Step 1. Go outside.
Step 2. Find a public area where a lot of people are, like a grocery store.
Step 3. See the hairstyles men have

You mean if you live in a Western country with Western tastes.
Will people ever realise there are other cultures in the world, and this game was made in Japan? I wonder (=w=;
