the immersion problem made by glams

[Dogempire]

Snip.

When did I say I broke TOS to get rid of anything? I only mentioned that such things are out there if you're really desperate to get rid of them or if it bothers you that much

I don't know what the big deal is, I can ignore certain things people wear but still think they're ugly or tasteless. If I saw your character in game then I probably wouldn't care about what you're wearing, but I'm still allowed to think that your choice of glam shows that you don't know how to co-ordinate an outfit, but you might be happy looking like a sun-bleached barbie doll from the discount bin in Goodwill and that's perfectly fine because that's what you like, and hey, if you don't agree with my tastes then that's fine too.

Yeah no. You lost any argument you had there, bud, the moment you broke out insults ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Not for console players.

Hiding glams, or how to make sure everybody looks exactly the same in a mix of horrible ilvl xxx (whatever is current) gear. People offended by glams screams insecure to me, especially since this is not a game where armor in itself is used for more than ilvl and fashion.

Oh, and I don't know where you're playing, but I see a huge variety on moogle, people are quite inspired. And the full bikini players many seem to hate are uncommon...

Two things: Who the hell is wearing a mix of gear unless they’re in the leveling process (and thus won’t be wearing it for long) and how not wanting to see your taste in fashion makes THEM the insecure one?

It's hating/being offended by others' sense of fashion.
Mix of gear = tome/raid/crafting gear, ie once people have achieved their bis they pretty much all look the same without glam.

BIS sets are always a mix of tome and raid gear, ppl in prog also have crafted pieces. So literally everyone who doesnt just buy tome gear.

I would say people who gets offended because someone doesn't care about their glam is even more insecure /shrug

Everyone should be allowed to play the game they the way they want to, even if its immersion-breaking for you (you could also be breaking someone else's vision of immersion, by the way). At the end of the day it's just the reality of mmos... everyone is allowed self-expression and the more variety there is in the game the more people will find a place for themselves. I myself am not a fan of overly modern attires / any kind of silly attires, but I'm not gonna go over to people and ask them to change.. If that's how they want to play the game, so be it.

Other players are non-canon to me. Dress how you want, we'll probably never meet again anyway.
