While they already talk about adding Alphinauds HW outfit to the cash shop? An outfit that probably needs quite some fitting for all races to look good. But hey they will get real money for that..seems to be a better incentive..

The difference being that Alphinaud's set has already been designed, and only has to be fitted for the other races.

The male bunny outfit isn't just the female one being applied to males. They've talked about it being a new set.

Which really misses the point of why people were asking for it in the first place, and potentially makes you wonder why, if it's a different design, they still feel so uncomfortable designing it. Makes me hopeful it won't be a nun-suit in comparison to the female variation, but still worrisome.

They can't just copy paste the female version onto the male model. Sets designed for female characters generally don't work like that. I also don't remember them ever stating to feel uncomfortable designing it, but it likely isn't high on their priority list.

We don't know when they started working on the bunny suit, after they had first mentioned about there being plans to design it.

Maybe it's like when I'm doing my essays. I leave them to the very day before, so what I'm saying is: They still haven't started on it.

I still haven't bought Lyse attire purely because I've given up on buying gendered gear now, my money clearly is not being invested in what players want.

Somewhere post Dragonsong (it was announced during HW) but pre NA fanfest (where they said it had been put on hold for SB production). It was left untouched till 4ish months ago according to the Shanghai fanfest Q&A ..and as off the new years Q&A, is still Under Construction™
