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

[Zanarkand-Ronso]

When you're stuck in a duty it's kind of hard to "just not look at it" and like I said to another person on here: since we're so keen on telling others what to do then just wear something else.

Also, for the billionth time, this isn't forcing anyone to do anything.

Its...VERY easy. The boss, the environment, the health meter, the enemy health meter, the party health meter, the mechanics, the effects, the skill effects.
There is SO much more to look at, then somebody's Avatar & Glamour.
Dont like it? Just dont look at it

Way to try and entirely sidestep the substance of my refutation of your points, and trying to pivot into tone policing. If you don't have a counter aruegment, that's fine, but no need to resort to ad hominems

You pointed your finger at me. That got the refutation you seek. You threw out incorrect assumptions and I responded. Now you’re just looking for a fight

How about, instead, you try to justify your position. Why must people see your glamour? How are you effected by what is on someone’s screen which you would have no knowledge of?

This request is as innocent as having a colour blind option. Yet you can’t give any valid answer as to how someone else’s option to toggle would impact your own experience.

No, instead, seems you just have a control issue

Let us just say resources were not a factor and this could be added with no impact on other features. What is your problem then? At the core your issue with it stems from your own personal disdain for the idea. It is not rooted in logic just preface, your reasoning at the core is not any more valid or invalid then those in favor of the feature.

If it were that easy, it would have been added to the game in 2020 or sooner.

That sounded like a demand....

Nobody is demanding anything.

You are missing the point of the question, the point is those that are against it at the core reasoning is not less or more valid then those in favor of it the feature. At the core you just do not like something and do not want it added simple as that.

Conflating two seperate things isn't going help your case.

Of course you never really had a case to begin with.

I stand by my statement regardless.
Call it a Preemptive strike on anybody who might say "its an easy feature to add" or actually believe "it wouldn't take any time away from anything"
Because.....coding takes time. Modding a game that only effects YOUR screen is different then altering game code that effects everything globally live on the server across Data Centers.

No Counter-argument XD
You just said "Just wear something else" which is basically telling someone what to do / a demand.
So....yeah.

And before you think to say "you weren't making a demand"
Then ill ask...did you really mean it? 'just wear something else' Or was it just some 'gotcha' to look clever?

Ahh, you mean like flippantly claiming that someone is being obstinate and willfully ignoring one side of the argument simply because they disagree with a position? Or how about then going on to talk down to them like they're just stupid and 'just don't get the facts', which said 'facts' were incorrect by the way. Do those not count as throwing out incorrect assumptions and trying to pick a fight?

How about, instead, you try to justify your position. Why must people see your glamour? How are you effected by what is on someone’s screen which you would have no knowledge of?

Because FFXIV is an MMORPG, a social game, and how players choose to present their characters to other players is an extension of that social aspect of the game. To allow disabling of others glamours undermines the social aspect of the game. I stated this already, but you have yet to acknowledge the point.

This request is as innocent as having a colour blind option. Yet you can’t give any valid answer as to how someone else’s option to toggle would impact your own experience.

Colour blind options do not disable a feature from the game, they are an accessibility feature. Also nice appeal to emotion. And it would impact my experience for knowing that my glamour is less valid. People like showing off their hard ground gear and other glamour, giving the ability to disable such detracts from the social aspect of the game.

No, instead, seems you just have a control issue

This is the funniest thing I've read all day.

So it's a control issue for me to have my character appear as I'd prefer, yet somehow not also a control issue for other people trying to force how they perceive everyone else around them. Flawless logic

Once again, you've entirely ignored the substance of my arguments, pretended like I made none, and resorted to ad hominems.
