Hidde Glamours Locally (& other graphically immersive options)

[DPZ2]

FFXIV really lacks in mods, tools and plug ins, compared to every other MMO out there. Everquest 2 even has an offical "asian texture pack" that looks very different than the original game's looks and players can choose freely to swap between them (just an example).

FFXIV is one of the few MMOs that run on both console and PC, making such tools unavailable for half of the population. It's a deliberate choice. Once you acknowledge that, you'll be much happier.
