For every job a different race! yeah

[ThePlayerOne]

In this game you not need alts (that's mean level up others chars), everything can be done with the main (which is good), only it doesn't give you the possibility to change the appearance and play the others races, except the case of going to other servers (but who want to start the main quest again ??? are you crazy !!!!).
My idea here is to allow you to completely change appearance for DoW and DoM jobs, leaving aside craft jobs which can keep the last used aspect.
What do you think? and what do you think of this idea Mr. Naoki Yoshida?

You can have up to 8 characters per server with the Standard-subscription (you'd still need to do the mainquest again though, I suppose...).

You can also use a Fantasia to change the race and apperance of your character if you ever want to try out a different race - which is probably the main reason they wont consider something like this: It would most likely hurt their fantasia sales.
I'm also unsure how this would - or if it all could - work on a technical level, with having your whole character model swept out every time you changed your job.

On a personal note: Absolutly not intrested in a feature like that and I wouldnt make use of it (but I also dont race-change every other week and have been very happy with my FemRoe for the past... 5 or 6 years by now). Now I know, other people might be intrested in something like that, thats fair and everything - but it also feels fair to say if one isnt intrested in this feature.

Odd suggestion with mildly confusing wording.

If you want to play other races either Fanta or switch characters. You aren’t stuck in your digital skin.

So a no from me.

Seems to me this idea serves only to deprive SE of the income from their number one selling item on the Mog Station.

Easily fixed! Simply require that a Fantasia be spent every time you change jobs, and let the money just ROLL in!

(Okay, more reasonably: expend a fantasia to assign a race to a job. Afterwards, whenever you change to that job, you change for free.)

Sad thing is there are probably people that work of be ok with this

Reminds me of some players who won't level healers on their male characters because it "doesn't suit guys"

They make too much money with Fantasia to give Job-specific Race Glamours.

but who want to start the main quest again ??? are you crazy !!!!

I have several mains, some on the same server, all on the same data center, didn't skip MSQ on them. (some Jobs got the boost, ie Scholar or Summoner, & Paladin.) Otherwise, Just level grind, my Elezen Main 2nd oldest character. My FemRoe is my 1.0 character (Fantasia to Femro was Lala Warrior), My Au Ra is my ShadowBringer Main, made to join a Trans FC. My Miqo'te is my stream character.

I have a Lala for Dwarf RPs, need to get to 80 with her for Dwarf content.

I have lots of high-level alts, aka secondary mains. Most for RP and things.

That's silly. I'm a woman IRL, I love tanking on a female character. Gender stereotypes are dumb. Also, the main healers in the scions are both guys.

I curb my fantasia addiction by having lots of alts, otherwise I'd be race changing seven times a day.

MSQ isn't too much of a bother on preferred servers where it lets you power level.
