At best, other MMOs do *as well as* FFXIV... games like Rift have a nearly identical system where you pick individual pieces to show on your character, but even then, that's your character's outfit... you can't have multiple outfits saved for multiple different looks that you can swap between.
Glamour art and glamour systems are two different things. FFXIV has great glamour options. But the method of putting that on? WoW is years ahead. WoW doesn't make me hold on to old items indefinitely in case I might want to use them in a glamour someday. It simply logs that I had it at some point, and then I can choose it from the list of everything unlocked. Done.

YoshiP talks about inventory size issues all the time. Want to shrink player inventory? Don't make people use an entire retainer to hoard clothes for glamour.

Housing is in the same boat. The housing stuff itself is great. The artificial scarcity is a farce in a subscription game.
