Request: Hempen Garb - Racial Unlock

[Keydah]

Race specific clothing in most games is fine. Almost everyone has alts to play other classes or even just for other races, so they don't miss out on anything.

Race specific clothing in a game built around having one character is not. While I'm sure there's plenty of people who do have alts, I'm willing to bet the majority do not. Therefore, they lose a lot of creative freedom in not having access to other races' hempen sets...ever.

The starting gear being race locked is fine - it's that race's "cultural" gear - but not being able to wear the Elezen or Roe top just because I'm an Au Ra is downright stupid. They're just simple tops and bottoms, there is nothing racially specific attached to them besides being a style that fits that race's sterotypical look. If I want my Au Ra to look elegant in the pretty Elezen hempen set instead of wearing a cutesy PJ babydoll because it fits her as a character better, what logical reason is there that I can't?

Suddenly everyone would be wearing them - what's wrong with that? Sure, we all know there will be catgirls in the Highlander hempen top EVERYWHERE for the first month of them being unlocked, but having the option of wearing it or the babydoll or the halter creates more diversity imo. I'd rather see a catgirl in Highlander panties here and there rather than every single catgirl only having a halter top to choose from...
