Why are most players content with putting on generic glamour?

[NinjaTaru72]

I don't really pay attention to what everyone else is wearing. I just enjoy putting on items that I think my little lala self looks cool in.

Like My 2 doh wearing that nice little poncho.

I glam how I feal (Got at lest 2 sets for all 4 of my main geared/used classes & 1 for crafting & 1 semi-shaired set for Gathering... & a few extra's that I barely use & can't bring myself to toss) heck my PLD's only using the High allag tank chest replica at moment cause I just crafted it 2 weeks ago (& it semi-matches the FF11 cross-over headband due to its small prema-red... & I use the High allag shield replica as glam). its been about 2 patches since I've seen my "main" MCH glam on anyone & 3 since I've seen my "main" WHM's, which is sky pirtate top. MNK's 1st glam is mostly lv1 crap so its still everywere, survivor shirt, & it used to be MCH's, using Uranus coat now cause I loved the origional... I wanna have 1 glam set for all but can't help going diff for each battle set every so often, its so tempting & aluring... & I'm indecisive.

Who cares what random people select for their glamour? It has 0 bearing on you and is a matter of theor taste. /shrug

Half of my server rock the Uraeus coat glamour and the other half are the generic Miqote and au ra girls with the 'dancer girl' skimpy thavnarian outfits.

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.

I had a friend like you in WoW, but instead of transmog his concern was mounts. He spent a fortune on the black market auction house to get Invincible -- Arthas's horse -- but when more people started to get it, he felt like his money was wasted.

He only found value in things no one else had, and that seems like an unfortunate way to live your life.

I don't often go for too "unique" glamours because a lot of the unique stuff is an eyesore in my opinion. Think giant feathery obnoxious hats like casters and bards/machinists often have.

The game really needs more low profile customization options.

The game really needs more low profile customization options.

Wouldn't that be nice, just everyday cloths. I wonder if that would hurt the high fantasy aspect of the game.

Its because of all the glamour locked by job specific gear, its only so many options of gear for all classes.

I feel as though they have been actively trying to add more 'everyday' gear with the survival set (ok, most of it) and a few of the other recent lv1 glamour items. Personally, since everyday clothing on a 2m-tall elezen isn't to my taste I still miss access to the female-restricted items with no male equivalent like the bustier set. There's nothing else quite like it which is why it's so popular in the first place; add more thavnairian-style pieces and more people will likely mix and match them.

Odd...On my server I've seen a ton of unique Glamour's....

[Ageofwar]

me personally i'm costantly playing around with the gear on my female alt and if I can dye it, I dye it grape purple (my Instagram and Tumblr follower love seening her in grape purple) my main male on the other hand I tend to put in the latest gear depending what looks good in raid, dungoen or tome gear
