New gearsets preview is a disappointment

The sets on the left and right immediately reminded me of the statue of Ponce de Leon in St. Augustine.

The set on the left and right, immediately reminded me of the Colombian Honor Guard. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/37th_I...uard_Battalion

Naturally with a more Napeolonic style plume, there is also the Brazilian Honor Guard - Now, take a deep look at this one, same front and rear as the FFXIV gearset helmet.

As two examples and there are many more if, you'd take a gander at what each South American Nation's Guard Wear, be it presidential or honor.

Not even close. The hat vaguely resembles it, the rest of the attire is FAR off. Try again.

Cool, a white person apologizing for the sins of their father and being offended on behalf of south americans. Very on brand.

I'm not being offended on behalf of anyone, that would be grossly arrogant.

I am personally offended.

I may have additional sensitivity to the topic because of my Roma heritage.

Apparently you've never been to St. Augustine.

You're kidding right?

You being "reminded" of something doesn't mean it's accurate.

Bluesky is the Truth Social of the left.

The hat and the entire outfit is more reminiscent of the three musketeers than conquistadors.

Interesting. Is it the .303 rifles or the c. 1914 German helmets that do it for you?

Like, that's funny on so many levels. Those uniforms are a result of European colonization.

And you're STILL wrong because he's wearing a full breastplate, puffy breeches, and a completely differently shaped hat along with sabatons that go past the thigh with detailing that looks nothing like the 7.3 gear.



The clothes look absolutely nothing alike and you're trying to be mad over nothing.

HEY GUYS, TURNS OUT THIS THREAD IS A BUNCH OF INTERNET WHITEKNIGHTS SENT OVER FROM BLUESKY https://bsky.app/profile/ramyeonguks.../3lu6aqg3fa22p. Most people here know nothing about the inquisition and are bandwagoning around a social media post. Disgusting.

Oh its slacktivism, certainly explains all the people who have posts in the single digits and forum accounts that were even made today.
