				id rather have sophia glamour in cash shop , these wings just look stupid.
Hmmm... Not bad, but this isn't the start of a slippery slope.
What I mean is that I came from another MMO that had glamour designs that started out quite like FFXIV, and then for some reason they started outsourcing all glamour design to fanartists. Cue remotely interesting designs that actually fit the setting being tossed out the window as the years passed, to be replaced with virtually every new design being trashy overdesigned modern crap that has no place in a raid against a dragon. The game always started out with wings too, but their size and obnoxiousness would literally double every year once they started giving the fanartists too much creative power. It's become so bad to the point where they literally had to add a button to the more recent wings to 'fold' them to make them smaller, so their sheer size doesn't get your allies killed in raids. (This is especially bad in a MMO where all non-glamour equipment mostly looks the same, only raid gear looked different and there was only really one raid set a year.)
I suspect something similar resulted in the creation of these wings for FFXIV, because incidentally, the vast majority of the contract fanartists from my previous MMO were Chinese despite it being a Korean MMO. (There WERE Korean contract fanartists but no one has heard from them for years, and they were responsible for older designs that were actually rather tasteful that I still wear in that MMO to this day.)

				Please don't let this blow up all over again. I don't mind them bringing things over that were once exclusive BUT AT THE SAME TIME some things being exclusive isn't bad. Atleast when it isn't done for just one region.
That said no flight, apparently its in their cash shop too instead of an event...seems like a bad exclusive all the same?
I hate wings in an mmo. they look lame and tacky. only wierdos would want them. seriously? why add that cheap thing in a aaa-game?
Wings?! No thanks. Aion is thataway >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Those bardings though...



 
			
			
				I don't think wings look any more foolish or cringe worthy then a full blown snowman/ reindeer....or pig costume ewwwww...Oo. (nor as bad as much of the regular gear in here either) but these look like they gonna be stiff as rock...I may be wrong, but just going by the gear we have now.
The outfits are ok, but I would prefer much more delicate wings if their only purpose is for glamour.
Also, separate from that horrid, typical copy paste dress style we are already plagued with.
One of my characters in Tera has a beautiful set of wings that are much smaller. I love the look because they are very thin and delicate in design, but then again that's just personal taste.
The bardings are more appealing to me tbh, the angel one specifically is very cute, would love to get that one if possible one day!
♥ MORE HIGH HEELS + INSTANCED HOUSING! ♥!
