I support this post.I'll let them know my suggestion.
Rethink your decission developers, unless you want to give us a better answer as to why this cannot be done (it would be too much work/data/blah blah blah). maybe I've been spoiled by hearing other developers talk about their games in a more open manner than I'm used to be in this day and age in a evolving game like a MMO the community wants to feel more involved in this kind of stuff instead of being given a nebulous answer like.
"We currently have no plans"
All this means is that the answer is not a flat out no and it's by track record never going to happen for unknown reasons.
Is the game really that bursting at the seams with item data that adding a more robust glamor system would tear it apart?
If that's the case why is that? are the servers substandard?
If so why aren't new ones worked with?
If it's cost why is it expensive when your raking in money hand over fist from cash shop transactions and subscriptions?
If funds are being siphoned from the game to Square Enix's project be transparent with us!
I really dislike when the developers are mum on this stuff. It's just hard to accept that it's not possible when the game is popular enough to be pulling in a tidy profit, I'm not even mad at the developers but the higher ups who decide what kind of budget They get to see.
If it's none of that then what to we the players need to do to make the developers "Plan" to work on this? How are we supposed to give them our opinion on what we feel is a right and wrong direction to move the game forward. Do people have to quit and make the developers wonder why people are leaving and not have us to give them the feedback as to why?
When was the last time the developers actually reached out to the community for real suggestions and not cherry picked ones they have obviously already been working on?
Those items are still visible!
They've just been permenantly attatched to the chest slot...
But isn't that an even bigger case of creating a system with expansion issues? In a modern MMO, either glamour or at the very least a plan for how glamour would be added, really should have been in there from the start. It's not as though people's desire for it should have come as any surprise.Glamour wasn't added until 2.2 and from I can gather they didn't originally plan to have glamouring, it was bolted on later after we requested it so much. So to sort of answer your question, they didn't knowingly create a system with expansion issues, it just wasn't in there from the start, so now they're trying to work around the framework they have.
I love this game. It's a lot of fun. But it seems like every problem with it comes down to stuff they have a hard time fixing because they'd failed to anticipate easily predictable stuff. Yes, they have to work within the framework they have, but they built that framework, and it's rather disconcerting that working within it seems to cause difficulty with just about everything.

I'd still love to have hoods and masks, I'd rock a black hood and a skull mask if one ever got added.
Friend/recruitment code for special items and things (use before paying first sub) RACN78W5 (updated) info on items here http://sqex.to/Cz9 code is entered via the mogstation.
Most likely the same reason why the got rid of the visible waist item.



You could use the slot of earrings for glasses (or other ornaments face), and the slot necklace for cape.


Honestly I feel like the main reason they can't do it is bc of some type of limitation, if they could they probably would since glamour > so thiz is a compromise.
Idm if they add face/hat things but I hope they also add the two items separately bc personally I don't wear glasses or anything but might like the hat.

I never saw this post all those months ago but YES. That is an example of what I wanted.
Secondly, I did not expect a community rep to come back and respond to this thread of all things more than 5 months later!
Still although their answer was disappointing, it wasn't a "No it's impossible". We may have a chance to see it in 4.x
I would always have my character wear glasses. She looks cute with them, but some of the head gear looks good when pulling together a look. (that and I'm darn near blind IRL)


Honestly i'm not surprised anymore it's pretty much a running joke nothing new will be added because of "server limitations" sorry but i don't buy it, straight up lies or just being lazy.
Harsh viewpoint but that's what happens when you see the same excuse over and over.
