Glamour Question

[Flaws]

I don't know how many times I have to explain that none of this has anything to do with restrictions. I haven't used identity in my arguments once, yet you do exactly what I said in my last post, and throw everything in a blender so all you see and hear is job identity. Furthermore, when you're arguing that restrictions limit your options and then proceed to mention all the options you have, it kind of has the reverse effect if your intention, and just makes you sound entitled.


Good grief. Just because the dev team doesn't grant every single request doesn't mean they don't take player feedback into account. They've released restrictions on many items of gear, and just released Lyse's outfit and hairstyle that has been in very high demand. And this is one big reason why I wish they did not lift restrictions. It's like apologizing to a mob. You know all that gear you keep referring to that are just re-releases of previous sets but for different roles? They do that BECAUSE of player feedback.

I know it sucks to hear the truth when it goes against all your hopes and dreams of a restriction-free glamour system. You'll continue to think it's about identity retention though, and bikini tanks remove all reason to keep restrictions, so I don't really see much point continuing. Do you?

Absolutely, I do. None of what you've said makes any sense. You clearly have no solid arguments against it. You literally talked about people getting compliments for looking the part originally which is clearly all about identity. Also, are you seriously going to say that having a few reused models for different jobs is the same as having no restrictions? Where are you even going with this? "All the options you have" like thats anywhere near what all of us are asking for. And no they absolutely don't do that because of player feedback, they do it because they don't want to dedicate resources to create new gear for every role in every new duty. How could you possibly arrive at that conclusion is beyond me. No one has ever asked for re-use of models, if anything we'd ask for the opposite.

Also, them releasing items on the Mogstation for real money is not in any way related to this conversation. Just because I said that devs should listen to their playerbase doesn't mean that I'm claiming that they don't listen to us at all, does it? You said that "the devs don't need to be told...". Yes, they do, because thats how games get better.

I honestly don't understand what reason you could possibly have to still be arguing against this when there are no good arguments against it. Not from an identity perspective, not from a coding perspective, none whatsoever. It feels like you're just going against it for the sake of going against it and there is no actual purpose to it. You're arguing against having more options which is the most bizarre thing a player of a video game can do.

Edit: From reading your other reply to Siddiax its beginning to sound like you just have some weird, twisted and skewed view of the community and you're against anyone who asks for any changes to the game regardless of how good or bad they might be. I hate to break it to you but giving good suggestions with good arguments that make sense and will objectively only be a net positive for every player of the game is not being a "rabid player" who "always finds something to gripe about". Its called giving feedback so that the game can improve, like I'm sure we all want it to.
