ADD GLAMOUR EFFECTS SETTINGS

[SeedSix]

Similar to the Battle Effects Settings where we have the options to show all, limited or none of the effects for our character, party members and others. It would be nice to have the same options applied to glamoured gear. For example, seeing a Warrior or Paladin tank in a bikini or with no shirt on is not what I\\'ve come to love and enjoy about Final Fantasy games. In my opinion this type of behavior can diminish the enjoyment and overall experience for some gamers. Please consider giving us the option to hide the effects of glamoured gear.

As ridiculous, absurd, or dumb as you may think some people's glamours are, they have chosen their glamours to represent their characters the way they want. If you have a problem with this, you can make friends with a group of people who never glamour anything outside of your tastes, and play exclusively with them.

I don't think the WoL should wear such a cumbersome hat in battle and you seem to be loaded with glams yourself.

As it's just been said, play with friends and you'll never get offended ever again. Leave us bikini tanks alone. It is Roegadyn lore and custom to flaunt one's body and take pride in their fine form. So that's just what I'll do.

It is even official that swimgear works for tanking - just look at the gear drops from Shisui of the Violet Tides.

While a tank in bikini may look silly to you, deactivation glamour would also mean that as good as noone would be walking around with an matching outfit or colors. Just looking at my unglamoured BiS-mix of stone- and edengear for my tank would make my eyes bleed. So no.
Also everyone can wear what they want, don't you dare glamourshaming them. If they want to run around in a bikini, let them - it's their decision. not yours.

no need to become so hostile and even that defensive about glamour, the op has a solid point.
if he doesn't want to see those kind of things ,he should have the option in game to turn it off.
as much as u try to defend a person choice of fashion ,u sound more prejudice then you try to make the op sound.
people are allowed to glamour what they want but people should also be able to not look at it if it bothers them as ridiculous, absurd, or dumb as you may think this is.
people have different taste ,they like certain thing,they hate certain things and they also bothered by them and the OP idea caters to those who are bothered by such glamours while still respecting them.

Oh I've got an idea to make this good! You get two settings for it, right? One that's as current, and then another that automatically puts every player character into their class's artifact gear depending on level bracket.

So looking at a Paladin they'd be in the AF1 from levels 50 to 59, the AF2 from 60 to 69, the AF3 from 70 to 79, and then the AF4 at 80. The only thing of the character in question it takes into account is whether headgear is set visible or weapons display while not drawn.

As for before level 50, or for classes without all the sets of artifact armor, I dunno. Could just give them the hall of the novice sets from 1-29 and the Brayflox set from 30-49?

But setting on this 'immersion mode' would be a valid option for people who care about job identity, letting them undo all the glamour restrictions in the game right now for the rest of us who actually engage with the system.

or simply make a setting that disable the glamour option and show what that person actually wearing?(which is what the OP is basically saying and not asking a full on censorship mode that changes what that person is wearing regardless of his equipment)

Nah that's awful. 90% of organic tomestone/raid/crafted equipment mixes would look like complete crap. I still remember my dragoon from Deltascape who never glamoured anything, I couldn't look directly at him it was that bad.

Plus, it'd help the section of the community that wants to visually ascertain a player's class without having to examine them or see their weapon that always seems to come up in these discussions.

In a single-player game? Sure.

In a multi-player game where the other characters are real people who chose what they wanted their character to wear? Not so much.

You can't control what other people wear in the real world either. Just look the other way.

So people can put me in lovely "immersive" things like the female dragoon armour and healer robes with miniskirts and frilly panties underneath? No thankyou.

I put a lot of effort into picking things that suit my characters and my taste of what is and isn't suitable for them to wear - whether it's avoiding things that are "too revealing" or just not the sort of thing that looks right on them.

Do you realise how disastrous unglamoured gear combinations can look, though?

Unless someone is wearing a complete set of gear, it tends to look like a mismatched disaster. (And even with a complete set, again they are often more revealing than what I've glamoured over it.)

My Lv60 RDM is wearing a top hat and feathered crop top. My Lv80 WHM is wearing a black gothic dress and chunky gold Ronkan arm and leg gear. My dancer is wearing something that might work for MCH but isn't remotely dance wear.

Real gear isn't coordinated to match other gear. It doesn't have to, because we have glamours to fix that.
