Bring WOWs allied race mechanic to XIV

[MsQi]

If they were going to devote the resources to develop new races I doubt they would want to limit their access, other than owning the expansion.

Allied races were basically additional character customization sold as a major expansion feature and it annoys me to no end even now.

Getting clan recolors would be nice, but from a senseless reputation grind? Absolutely not.

I read out the title of this thread to my boyfriend and he INSTANTLY yelled "NOOOOOOOO, OH MY GOD NOOO".

There's your answer.

Those rep grinds were obnoxious for reskins of existing races (except for vulpera, that was a GOOD reskin. All the other ones were obvious reskins).

Zandalari Trolls and Dark Iron Dwarves were worth the effort as well, in my opinion. I might have felt a little differently about the Legion ARs though if I hadn't been finished with the rep grinding months before they released. lol Even so, they weren't particularly fun to unlock. They just took a long time, which was the entire point. The dev team wanted it to take as long as humanly possible.

Never ever lock races behind rep will be fun, it killed us of boredom. I mean, if all these new implementations of wow be any good, players would never quit it to come to 14.

To be fair, it wasn't ARs that drove me away. It was the mindset of the dev team and their many other design decisions.

WoW has worse character customization than most cell phone games. Allied races are a crappy thing put in to force people to keep playing. Nobody plays wow because they enjoy it.

I’m going to say a big thank you, next to allied race anything in XIV. I’d rather the races we have see some changes done to them to make them better instead.
