This is... awful. Yoshida, no. Just... no. I refuse to believe your devs are that incompetent that they can't figure out how to design a glamour log when many other MMOs manage this with absolutely zero issue.

Also to address his other points...

People are not purchasing million+ gil crafted items to glamour them once and then throwing away the item. THEY ALREADY ONLY BUY THINGS ONCE. Not having a glamour log is literally only HARMING your playerbase. It strains our inventory and retainers to the point of bursting. It adds stress and frustration as we try to navigate the overly convoluted process of glamour and accessing inventories. The limit of what we can store also puts a steady pressure to ultimately NOT engage in content. I literally have NO motivation to run content right now because I cannot store any more effin' armors for glamour.

To put this in perspective, I resubbed to WoW about 5 months ago after being away for 4 years. I've not even bought Legion yet. But I've remained subbed and happy just slowly farming up old armor sets and things to unlock in the transmog log. If you want to maintain subscriptions, encouraging people to farm armor appearances is THE way to do it. There is a reason your players say "Glamour is the real endgame" - because it is the CORE motivation that keeps players going back into content long after they've mastered it. However, what point is there in doing that when I cannot actually store any of the potential armors that I could get? Why would I ever want to go in and farm Dun Scaith or whatever when I have no room for the gear? Why bother with farming Alexander, or buying the numerous crafted items? Why bother making any Mogstation purchases? I have no room to store any of it, so I don't do it!!!
