[Dev Request] How about Ascian/Garlean Armor?

[alythias]

Yesssss. This has my full support! I for one would appreciate seeing my fellow RPers able to dress how they'd like. More glamour options is never a bad thing.

I would just like to point out to all those going 'BUT THEY'RE VILLAINS!' that we have the magitek mounts of Livia and Nero available in the Mog Station.

Now what's supposedly odd about thaaaat...oh yeah. They were villains! We can summon voidsent mounts and minions. We've gotten plenty of things based off 'villains' in the series, living or otherwise. So yeah, that's not a valid 'point' unless it comes from Yoshi-P himself.

I feel there is a big difference between a mount and having armor.

Explain how there is a big difference between owning an enemy's mount versus owning an enemy's armor? If you're going to use the "Because they're dead" argument, Nero isn't dead; yet we have his magitech armor. Odin is an elder primal, yet we're able to ride Sleipnir.

I'd also like to remind those that there was a big firestorm over the possibility of adding Sleipnir as a player obtainable mount. SE declined the idea at first stating lore reasons, but after a while and on top of player request they added it.

May I also remind you of the recent one involving clouds motorcycle? Dev's said no because it wouldn't work well in the game due to the current mounted travel speed, yet they are looking into possibly increasing the mount ground speed due to many players request of the motorcycle being added.

So anything is possible if enough players wish for it.

Because mounts don't show up in cut scenes. It would be really weird to have the WoL dressed as an ascian while talking to the scions.

You have to understand this game is centered around its lore. Lore has a big priority and until there's a good lore reason to why you could dress like an ascian, I don't see it happening.

I understand the game is centered around lore but it is also centered around fanservice as has been stated by the producer and director himself.

You also have to understand that we can still wear the Scion's attire as well as Y'shtola and Thancred's 3.0 outfits and that we'll soon be able to obtain and wear the armor and weapons of all 12 of the Heavens Ward knights.

You need to realize that some people have already made their characters look like certain NPC's, including enemy NPC's. I don't see the point in not allowing further NPC armor of both enemy and ally to be released when the majority of Cutscenes in this game are only viewable by the player themselves and not everyone.

As much as I hate buying anything off the mogstation, outside of fantasia's and even then I wait for a sale, if they put Nero's hammer in there I will buy it.

[shao32]

i will love to see the garlean armor we see in the trailer for us, is by far "for me" the best look for my vision of samurai, if SAM have a good gameplay and i can get this glamour i can be very happy to make SAM my second main.

I have a suspicion that there might be a quest in SB where we will once again have to disguise ourselves as Garleans (like the Imperial chestpiece and Imperial Pot Helm we already have). If you remember in the keynote from last weekend, Doma has some sorts of shields around it and they look Garlean to me. My thinking is that Garleans are rebuilding it and the shields only let through Garlean transport, so we might have to steal one to get in, which will also require a disguise.
