    Disappointment for Gaia's Outfit

    My friends have heard me gush over Gaia's boots since the moment I first saw them. I've constantly sighed over them and wished, prayed, made lala sacrifices for the hope of one day seeing them.

    So when her outfit became available in the store, I was immediately notified by said friends. "Finally! My dream boots have come to me!" I thought.

    But alas, the dream is not to be. WHY IS IT A ONE PIECE?!?! This is outfit discrimination. The Oracle's Attire is a three piece, with the boots by themselves.
    Even Lyse's outfit came with an extra hairstyle. Omega M/F came with earrings (btw Zero's earrings next please).

    Going back through the recent NPC items, they are usually a minimum of 2 items in the set. So even if the main body was a one piece, there was some kind of consolation prize. But what does Gaia get? JUST THE ONE PIECE.

    It's hardly the end of the world. But my day has been ruined and my disappointment is immeasurable.

    Minimum effort for maximum profit, and they know that they can get away with it. That is why.

    Simple answer: she, Gaia, is not classified as a human character/typical NPC. (most unique NPCs are like this)
    Her "outfit" is the entirety of her body, there were never pieces to begin with.

    When you buy and use this outfit, it replaces your body with her own.

    It's hardly maximum profit. They could have put in a little more effort and likely gotten at least 2-3 times as many sales.

    Speaking for myself alone, if it were a multi piece outfit and dyable, I'd have bought it for 3 different characters. Instead I'm not buying it at all.

    They could have, but they knew that people would buy it up anyway.

    This is a bit too much information for my tiny hamster brain to comprehend, and yet my mind is blown.

    This one is beyond your help. Only sleep can save her now.

    You can join my mental hamster on her wheel. I never thought of it like that and now I wish I didn't.

    There's probably some technical issue with the sleeves that makes it necessary for the arms and torso to be one piece. Then it was just easier to attach the legs and boots to that. Unfortunate, but then again, I wasn't gonna buy it anyway.

    Now, if they'd included her hair, I might've been tempted. Lucky for me they didn't.

    I was a bit disappointed about the entire outfit being one piece. It is a complete waste. Ryne's set, for example, is one of my favorite sets in the game and I use bits of it for many different outfits. This one being one piece destroys most uses I could have out of various parts of the set. Now, granted, I think this set is very themed for black mage, but I still would have liked to have been able to use those certain pieces. I always figured it would have been undyeable.

    Yet 3 years ago, someone was able to have this in pieces this was done almost instantly when Gaia was released.

    There's one with the sleeves too. SE is lazy. All there is to it.
    Coulda made the piece with and without sleeves if needed and no hair wtf?
    Sick of the lame excuses for everything they do.
