the immersion problem made by glams

[SamsaraTrickstar]

This keeps getting brought up, and I feel people are completely oblivious to the fact that immersion would be just as awful with the ability to disable everyone's glams.
Some of the default armour is hideous, and some of the best gear sets do not fit their respective jobs.
For example, the previous tier of Eden gear, for all casters and healers, was a frickin' night gown.
Without glamours, you'd have thousands of Hrothgars, male Roegadyn, Highlanders, etc. all strutting around in frilly night gowns and tights. Which is fine... but it's certainly no less immersion breaking.

its not a thing of ugly but of in world looking

Says you. And who the hell are you again?

[SamsaraTrickstar]

Me that all,no one important. I just say how I see it. The problem is for me and some more people. You may not see it as one or even love it the way it is. Perfectly fine.

If they did implement an option to turn off glams, it would probably just put everyone in their racial gear. Look at how many Viera are around. You still won't get away from skimpy looks.

FOr all of you who someone missed point it is not about skimpy or not etc.

It is like seeing someone in bikini in winter where snow is around or seeing someone in halloween costume on Valentine day etc or seeing 2021 electric mobilg in 1500th century kind of immersion breaking .

It would not be so bad if there were like PLACES FROM WHERE THINGS are from for example boom here is town /city with all modern stuff and such things are form there etc.


But seeing once in ridiculous glamour and there is like nothing even close to it makes you from what game/world that person came from .

I just watched a cutscene with Godbert in Ishgard, does that just shatter your fragile little sense of immersion too?

What are you even talking about ?
What a weirdo you cant deny ffacts LUL .

Literally OP and me asked for way more and npccs to have designated zones and places where these things came from etc so ti makes some sense and not just once in blue moon seeing something totally out of place theme and setting of what is around in game world.

LIke seeing someone in Kimino walking around in my country level of immersoin breaking.
And if you still dont get it then you are just too thicc to view others people have different views than you.

Cant post more , I am level 36 or something i have 0 idea about what you even talk about and again it has nothing to do with skimpy mogs or bikini which are normal but some people i have seen totally out of place.

I'm talking about the in-game NPC who wears a bikini in Ishgard. If that doesnt ruin your immersion why should a PC who does the same have that effect?
