As of right now only one item is racial locked to each race in terms of appearance. Is that fair, is that ok that no one can be unique? You make a choice when you made your character, your representation in the story of this game, some choose to make eye candy in strings and want access to everything so their dolls have every option in bikini's. I chose the characters that were conquerors, after having been defeated now are made to suffer as outcast, vagabonds, and refugees. Request like this undermine my personal hope that we see more gear made exclusive to races (sub races as well, A Midlander male and Highlander male should not look like the shop at the same outfitter), something worthy of cultural significance.

    Restrictions are ok, not having access everything is to be expected and for some adds story to their characters. Continuing this kind of mentality just means less incentive for the art team keep trying tp make anything uniqe, why bother when everyone wants to share the same underwear?
    But you aren't actually encouraging diversity by keeping them race restricted. If every race could use every hemp style there's a great deal more potential in glamour diversity since more people can use them. The same can be said for the racial starter sets. Everyone isn't going to use the same hemp style, whereas right now they have no choice but to use the same one (within their race). More options equals more diversity. You're not really talking about diversity... you're talking about exclusivity.
