STOP Genderlocking Cosmetics!!

[TTiscancer]

If it is a cosmetic item that I am paying for why should I have to make a whole new character just to be able to use it. Also I’m not complaining that I can’t use them, I’m just saying I like them and would like to be able to use them.

Maybe.... I dunno, don't buy female outfits if you play male character? I mean, that would *seem* like the logical thing to do, right? RIGHT?

Like I said, I didn’t want the dress. I simply said I like the shoes and would have enjoyed being able to use them. Her shoes also don’t overtly scream “female” anyway. But to my point I said WOULD HAVE enjoyed them.

And there's the problem, you're gonna double the dev's development cycle with this kind of request. When you want Ryne's shoes, the other side that wants women to use men's clothes will want Thancred's boots.

The solution they will/probably/should give to this request is to make an alt of the opposite gender when the need arises.
There are many times I want to play as a lalafel, so I then go ahead and make an alt.

wow i cant believe theres such a difference inbetween a male miqote and female miqotes foot model. I could have sworn the only major areas that need custom re-modeling were the chest and upper arms. /s

seriously theres more of a difference between male roegadyn and male miqote than there is between male and female miqote, the obvious solution is for everything except lalafell to be deleted so the devs only have to model one gearset period

I have a theory, but I suspect more glam may be genderlocked from here on out. As happy as people are for getting male Viera and female Hrothgar, I think it'll come at a cost. It'll be more sensible and less time consuming to give glam to specific body types, than for the team to overwork themselves in expanding it to ALL body types. So yes, people got want they wanted: more gender and races...

...for a price.

It’s a damn good price then. Less genderlocking and more masculine/feminine glams and hairstyles for each gender. Seems like a win win for me

The trans and homophobia I have seen on this thread IMHO is actually more than a bit disgusting. Ya'll need to get with the 21st century already. There is no place for homophobes or transphobes around here, and I personally support the LGBT community 100%

Well good for you Timmy.

There a different ways to handle this and some are better than others. The vast majority of players dress their female characters in feminine clothing and male characters in masculine clothing. Not gender neutral stuff or cross dressing. A solution that ignores this is a bad solution.

School outfits (masc/fem for both) > maid and butler (masc and fem) > alphinaud outfit and hair (unisex for both) >>>>>>>> 2B outfit (fem for both and no masc option)

Of course the school outfit is the ideal way to handle it but they aren't going to do that for all glamours. That leads to less wearable options. The bunny set looks like crap on males and we got that instead of a nice Chippendale bunny set. The wedding dress doesn't bother me because there is a male suit as well. See where I'm going with this?

I’d rather see new glamour rather than retrofitted glamour.
