STOP Genderlocking Cosmetics!!

[AngeliouxRein]

Ahem! When did they state that we’ll get more Nier? Was it in a live letter or something? I’m about to get all kinds of hype for Endwalker if we have a chance at flight units , 9S outfit and more! !!!

Update: Found it! I see how you came up with that idea of more Nier. Yoko is all for the flight units, weapons, and other things to be added (YESSS!!) As for them continuing the story it seemed more like, “they’ll think about it” but it’s not definite (aw). But I am happy to see their is high chances of getting the flight unit!

Okay, that is all, don’t want derail, lol.

I assume people are misreading the recent live letter guest-starring Yoko Taro who was explicitly not serious about anything he said.

Misunderstanding Yoko Taro's humor is like failing a vital Raid Mechanic.

sure, it'd be nice for there to be less gender-locking in the game.

especially for mog station outfits.

(Wishful thinking)They could always sell the mog station sets as individual pieces as well. The pieces that don’t necessarily make much sense being gender locked would not have to be gender locked(gloves, shoes)

I rather they spend that time creating/porting new hair styles or more glamours in general.
Creating male version of women's clothes and a female's version of men's clothes takes up time and resources.

As stated, wishful thinking. And you certainly don’t have to respond to every post I make with your same response about my opinions and musings.

I certainly can; moreover, it brought new information.

Keep it masculine for males
Keep it feminine for females

It's why there's 2 choices; make an alt if you want both options.

I kinda agree with them though, there are items that aren't necessarily gendered, but are still genderlocked because they're part of a set - Ryne's boots and Y'shtola's feather thingies as the most recent examples.

At least none of them are predominantly white/pastel, with boob windows, tight corsets, or exposed collarbone/shoulder area

Or stick to selling whole sets but just make the boots and gloves unisex, like the Expeditioner sets originally had those pieces unisex even though the tops and pants(es?) were gendered.

They already essentially have that approach with the Aymeric costume where the hairstyle is unisex even though the outfit isn't.

And in practice it's there for things like the Mheg Deaca where people might not touch the fairy gown with a barge pole but they want the circlet and boots. Or really, any time anyone buys a whole outfit just for one piece.

And that is why people with a mind for historical clothing see a lot less imbalance to feminine outfits here...

Another one that jumps to mind is Lyse's set – unique gloves, sabatons that exist as a player model already and, particularly, unique earrings that would need no adaptation work.

Also the ARR Scion sets which again all exist as player models. They're not really exciting outfits overall, of course, but would give a few currently role-locked pieces to use for all classes – getting the caligae models to equip on mages, for example.

Cid's goggles as well.
