I want an option, please

[yaba_gabagool]

To turn everyone's glamour's off except mine. I just want to see my glamour, for everyone else, i just want to see their baseline gear.

This option only affects my gameplay experience, and there is already baseline models and armor in the game.

Please add this option as there are already third party programs (that break the TOS) that do this, and is a desired enough option that people are willing to get their accounts banned for it.

FF14 is about individual choice and player options. It's about player empowerment and the player individual experience. Please add this harmless option.

Here is the original discussion originally brought up on the steam forums:

neat idea but i doubt they'll implementing this, because showing off glam is a great thing in mmo. Yoshi p want that mmo feel and want everyone on the same page and same level of enjoyment

I'm not on the same level of enjoyment though. I enjoy my own glam, I just don't want to see anyone elses. Why must I be forced (because it IS being forced) to have someone else's experience thrust on me, even though I don't consent?

All I'm asking for is the simple option to turn glamours off for everyone but my own character. It doesn't affect anyone else, and honestly, it's no one else's business what I see on my own screen, especially since it doesn't affect anyone.

It's my gpu, it should honestly be my choice.

you might be looking for a single player game... not an mmo.

No, not at all. I enjoy an MMO. I just don't want to see anyone else's glams but mine. It's a reasonable request, and doesn't affect anyone's game experience except mine.

To add onto what kevin said seeing others wear it is also a free form of advertisement. To make an option to make everyone wear the basic outfit cuts off a possible way for someone to see a store costume and potentially buy it.

Unless you go off announcing that you are using said backdoor ways to hide others stuff already they don't scan computers and you should be safe. Unless you are a console player.

Informative read on what others will think of your proposal!

If that was the case, are you saying FF14 staff and crew cares more about money than player experience? That would seem very contrary to what they've stated as a company, especially Yoshi P's stance on character choice and experience.

That sounds very greedy.

It also seems flawed in reason since they advertise fine for themselves on their launcher and the website. Why do I need other player's glams to see that?
Why
Again, this affects no one but my own self and what I see. Why are so many people concerned with what I see? Honestly, it feels very creepy. I shouldnt have other's experience forced on me when I don't consent.

And I'm telling you now, I don't consent. So please stop trying to force yourself on me.

I understand where you’re coming from but its an mmo and not a single player game.
Just like for you, to others, their experience of sharing their glamour with others would be force taken away too and basically have their individuality taken away at the same time, reduced to npc energy, so they won’t ever implement that.

I understand wanting to make your game feel more like “just yours” but this game is community based and not individual.

For me personally, I couldn’t care less if someone turns off my glamour on their screen, if you want to look at pieces that don’t match together then by all means go ahead, but I can also understand why others wouldn’t be ok with that.

And there was already a thread floating around about this if Im not mistaken.

I don’t even know why I took the bait to an obvious troll post, “forcing yourself on me, I don’t consent (????); someone else's experience thrust on me, even though I don't consent?“) but it’s late and Im bored :3

I'll be real, I don't even know what anyone else is wearing half the time because I play zoomed out as far as it will go. I really only notice if it's like, a metallic green chicken outfit or someone tells me to look at someone's character. Unless you're playing pretty zoomed in or standing in Limsa with your camera focused on specific groups of people, I'm not sure how anyone else is effecting your experience with their glam.
