Gear over looks

Admittedly, I may be mistaken but I'm almost positive EQ2 had that style of system in place before Rift.

That said, there's absolutely no sane reason to require a level 50 for access to the glamour system and I would personally love it if the class restrictions were removed from projecting followed by being able to dye all types of gear.

Yes, EQ2 had the exact same vanity system. They called it the Appearance Tab. It was originally available to you once you hit level 20, but they eventually made it available for brand new level 1 characters. Honestly, I wish that XIV's developers had gone with this system (Blizzard, too, in regards to WoW) but... server limitations and we get the Glamour System instead. C'est la vie. *sigh*

Also, I happen to like the appearance of some of the DoM gear on my male characters.

Yeah, the Glamour System is great, though I do wish lower-level players had access to it. No real reason why that can't happen.

I'd say because the cooler looking gear is higher levels, plus you need the glamour crystal for x job to get it done. You'd have time to collect gil and all just before you can up and glamour.

It's silly but y'know the majority of this game has really crappy gear till 50, even then as a SCH/healer I still look like crap.
Look like a damn Princess Zebra in my CT gear. The Daylight star whichamallcity looks like I'm the Pope. It's kinda bad man. The rest doesn't look bad.
Feel like they just super lazy till 50, you get rehased cult looking hemp subligars all day.
