Please don't harass people for ignoring/disliking the story

FF4 has a giant mech-dungeon you climb in.
FF6 has a knight a monk and a thief face off against a tank. One of the people on team Hero is a Yeti.
I mean, FF7 literally has characters wearing armor (Jesse) and people in sunglasses and tailored suits. One of team hero is a mechanized mascot being operated by some dude in a cubicle..somewhere.
FF10 has a girl in a bikini top hanging with a literal samurai in sunglasses.

You would be hard pressed to find a Final Fantasy game that DOESN'T mix modern with "ye olde fantasy". And even then, it's more a matter of pixels not showing detail.

You don't have to like it, and that is fine, but even a Hawaiian shirt is hardly out of place.

One of the newest titles, Stranger in Paradise, literally has the main character in a button up t-shirt standing with a friend in armor. There are even zippers.




Or alternatively, sailor uniform back-flap.

Yeah, and they are all in different games. Are you telling me that seeing Zidane run up to the people in SoP wouldn't make you laugh at how badly that clashes? I am laughing at people getting upset at others for calling out the clashing styles though. Why are you so upset? The devs are clearly leaning towards a jack of all trades master of non sort of situation with XIV, so all you are doing is telling people they are wrong for not liking clashing styles in a single game, lol.

The opposite actually; their complaints were that X doesn't belong in FFXIV. Their dislike is their opinion which is fine, but to say it's not a thing in FF in general is factually wrong; I gave examples of extreme clash within games (eg tanks vs a body building monk; or a Samurai in what is an otherwise brightly colored Islander-fashion vibe world).

If you actually read my posts, you would see I’ve said they don’t have to like, and that is fine. Several times.

Furthermore, given what we know about FFXIV's world and cultures, a Hawaiian shirt is simply not that out of place. If you want to argue wierd and out of place, I would have expected Yokai-Watch to be the go-to.
