It's time (Option to Hide other players Glamour)

Just finished a dungeon with a tank wearing shorts... it's kinda weird.

Not seeing one in panties or at least a skirt is pretty weird. (❁´▽`❁)*✲ﾟ*

That's literally my current tank glam.

Tanks should wear plate, healers should wear robes

In all honesty, the premise of this argument is kinda flawed to begin with when the art team doesn't care a lot about this... Sets in XIV are, for the most part, created around a common theme from the place where they came from rather than following the classic silhouette of "tank in plate, mage in robes", and that leads to things like armor weight hardly being able to represent a specific job in this game. There are examples right on this expansion, by playing level 90 content hiding glamours, you'd see tanks running in Asphodelos' sets which look like light cloth armor.

It is truly amazing how many new or first-post-after-long-hiatus people manage to go straight to reviving the most argument-triggering threads.

I suppose if the regulars didn't respond to them it wouldn't get much attention, but here we are.

So now that we have female characters tanking in string bikini's and now men in wedding dresses, it's time to adopt an option a lot of other games have: Hide Glamour. Naturally troglodyte are going to assume it's because of the men in dresses. It's actually because it's breaks the theme and feel of it being a final fantasy game. Tanks should wear plate, healers should wear robes, and no one should be in a fight seriously wearing carbuncle slippers and lingerie.

I don't propose a limit to glamour, I just want to be able to turn off other players glamours displaying on my client. That way they can "Express" themselves all they want, and I don't have to suffer another topless male in a thong.

What's the point, after seeing other people screens... they don't see what we see.. almost every player uses ridiculous amounts of glam mods to change all the ingame outfits to super revealing/nsfw outfits.
Just look at twitter, 99% of the gposes are using modded content.

Am i just abnormal for liking what the developers make?

I mean max level characters would be looking alright I guess but while lvling all the mismatched parts of gear don't look that grand together either xD And very early ones have some amusing colors as well.

Not to mention some sets still would probably not fit the themes. Tanks in plates? Oh but they do share the armor with gunbreaker which has way different aesthetic to begin with.

And as it was mentioned not all sets do even look like plates for tanks anyway.

On a side note funny enough some people were laughing that with how the party members are suddenly summoned into later trials in cutscenes, wearing slippers could actually make sense too.

In short. I don't think that solution would create a perfect immersion enviorement either.

I support this option if and only if when you hide the glamors of other players, they default to Moogle and Chocobo costumes.

If we got this option then they'd really need to work on removing job restrictions on glam, since the biggest argument against that is always how cross-job glam would hurt job identity.
