ADD GLAMOUR EFFECTS SETTINGS

[HyoMinPark]

You'll have to break this down for me, how are they making you adhere to their standard? You can still wear whatever you like and enjoy your glamour, nobody is asking you to stop doing that. Players who don't use the immersive option would still be able to see and enjoy your glamour along with you, and your feelings wouldn't be hurt just because some guy you don't know, using a feature you don't know he is using, has made the world a little more immersive for himself.

If they feel compelled to change my glamour—even if it is only client-side—I clearly wasn’t dressing to their standards and they made it so that I was. Clearly they don’t want others dressing in any ways other than what they deem “appropriate” if they want to go around changing what people wear. They could just, I don’t know, stop caring so much about what other people wear? It’s really not that big of a deal if Billy the Tank is in a bathing suit in your Amaurot run. You likely won’t ever see them again after that, so why does it matter that much?

I can see many situations where this feature would be very useful, screenshots being a big one. Screenshots and glamour are two huge activities in FFXIV, and why should he not be able to request the ability to take more immersive screenshots?

You are really reaching with the screenshot argument here. Most screenshots that people take are usually under a controlled situation—i.e., they already have a say in who and what appears in it, and they can even coordinate outfits to be “more immersive”/“more appropriate” to what they want in a shot. Unless you’re trying to say someone wants to actively take screenshots in the middle of a duty—and, at that point, who cares? You can’t expect everyone to just be wearing what you want them to wear. If you want “in-action” shots, coordinate them yourself with friends and set a dress code. Don’t expect it out of random people.

I'm not really advocating the feature, rather the right to request it.

I haven’t seen anyone say that someone cannot request the feature. The people replying in the thread are simply disagreeing with the concept of what’s being requested—which, they are well within their right to do so, as much as it’s within the right of the OP to ask for the feature.
