Why are most players content with putting on generic glamour?

I fantasia'd into a Miqo'te a couple times, and an Au Ra once. I went back within a week, because it feels like everybody is a Miqo'te or Au Ra. Oh well.

I feel like there is a lot more Miqo'te than there is Au'ra though lol.

Yeah, because hardly anyone is playing lalafell these days. So unique! >.> My server is PACKED with lalas

It's not the race, it's what you make out of it. And when there's only so many options to make your character look different, then what can you do?

Half of my server rock the Uraeus coat glamour

Sue me.

Sue me.

Your character looks glorious. Don't ever change.

Thank you

I wish there were more "generic" glamour options. That way I'd have more selling options than just the Uraeus coat. Currently most of the other glamour options, that used to sell well, are currently given out in PotD like candy.

Don't you guys take a look at your character and think: "Gee I look like everyone else. Maybe I should try to farm for a drop so when I do glamour, at least I can appear more unique and not a copy/paste of everyone else."

But nope. People are perfectly happy making characters that look exactly like everyone else. I just don't get that.

You know, if we weren't restricted heavily by what we can actually wear on what job, I guarantee you that you would see alot more unique and different styles. Being able to mix and match things not normally able to equip would be grand.

But nooooooo....

We have to kept thing drab because we'll end up hurting someone's immersion or someone's perception of what said class should wear..so...we get what we have.

Once we're able to wear what we want without a care, you'll maybe see more different looks, but until then, enjoy seeing your generic looking characters.

And when I look up your character: http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodest...aracter/11184/

You are a catgirl tank in a dress. Gear is all dyed the same color. Hair is also partly dyed the same color. Given more options, I really don't think you'd change. I'm not trying to be rude, but you're not exactly trying to break away from the crowd yourself.

Errhm... Looking at someone's Lodestone is not a way to know someone's style... People have more than one job <.<

I have BRD, DRK and SMN and only SMN(the one that shows on the Lodestone) has a dress.

Also, you completely ignored the point of her post in favor of useless picking on the glamour. Anyone can come and say your glamour sucks. Keep that in mind.

This. The way I dress my WAR (which isn't even visible on lodestone) is different from how I dress my MNK. But if someone took the time out to stalk me to see my gear they'd just see the last thing I wore completely out of context. It's grasping at straws and being awfully presumptuous in practice anyhow since lodestone isn't very fast on, well, loading.
