Dreamfitting feedback

[Deveryn]

That's my point though – you can't "access them for free" for trying-on purposes if they come from quests or raids. You can only see those items if you've run the raid and it's in your inventory or temporarily in your text log. Being able to preview pieces without owning them would be amazing, and I'd be less inclined to hold onto dungeon pieces I like but am not using currently just so I can try them on.

There isn't the same need for things you can browse from in-game shops, although it would still be nice to not have to travel to something like seven different cities, the Wolves' Den and the Gold Saucer to try on everything.

The goal with the dream fitting was to make sure people are happy with spending even more money on a look. It just seems a waste of time to put something like that out there, especially when we have a lot of options already available for checking out what things will look like. Eorzea Collection and BadWolfy (YT) come to mind.

Having tried it out, I feel like it might be a tall order to expect a full catalog of gear to be loaded into a space you need to access in complete isolation with load times.

The argument to just use EC or YouTube previews could apply to the paid items as well. Both are equally unhelpful for confirming that a piece will work on my character as part of a specific glamour concept.

And I might not be spending money for a dungeon piece, but I am potentially spending quite a lot of time to acquire it. To have it not even work for what I want at the end of all the effort is several layers of disappointing.

Also if "loading the full catalogue of gear" would be an obstacle, then they could break it up in some way. But it's also possible that loading it in isolation might be more about getting the specific interface working with your character and automatically previewing the full set on your character while not overwriting the standard Try On saved outfit.

They've made the interface now, which was surely the bulk of the work. Adding more gear to the list could be very minimal effort for a big player benefit. For me it would be 90% of the appeal of a glamour log without needing to store the actual items, which apparently was their sticking point. I'd be able to browse dungeon sets like I now can browse the marketboard, and discover pieces that I want to spend time working towards.

Whatever it is, it's more complicated than you think it is.

Yes, they've made the interface. Adding all the gear and having it all in the appropriate sets is no minor feat.

but whatever, you don't want to even try to understand what's going on. Enjoy your time that would be better spent just putting together the looks as the rest of us have all this time. Good day.
