The most literal explanation for this is because it's a completely different setting to the usual fantasy worlds we've been to. Everything about Solution Nine isn't really something that matches Etheirys as we've known it. It's a futuristic city, so you'd expect NPCs to have those exclusive settings. You wouldn't see crazy neon hair and eyes like that in Gridania for example.

I personally prefer the more natural settings and would rather not have those options (neon hair isn't really FF14 to me). Even if that's my opinion, people are still welcome to want these options (and it's not my business if it was actually added). I'm aware the game contains silly costumes that go against an established style.

You deleted it but im still going to reply.

Its not like culture from there couldn’t come over to us. Plus we already have futuristic stuff all over the place.


Also, to those saying no because custom. We are expressing our want for an updated character creators where we can choose neon colors and eyes. Its not a bad or big ask which can easily be done. We already started getting neon dyes of pink,red,blue and cyan (cant remember if I missed any). And people who do the M word for characters have shown these colors could be done.
