I know Fern stated that the entire Ul'dah starting story was done in via the Echo in 1.0 (which is why we meet Minfilia as a little girl and an adult). I feel they are just going to have all Au Ra experience past events via the Echo, or just say it's the Echo until they are caught up to 3.0.(03-02-2015, 10:41 PM)Ashren Snow Wrote:(03-02-2015, 10:31 PM)Blue Wrote: Update! I've started a new thread that I'm sure all the wanna-be Au Ras will find appealing. Here's the link: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/threa...ost2813229Yugiri being a key character they'll never make her outfit available to the player in the same way that almost every key character has a unique outfit/appearance. I also feel like her hood thing is more of a Ninja thing and less of an Au Ra thing.
Please show your support or share your feedback, preferably on the official forums!
That still supports the lore issue for players starting the game as Au Ras though, don't you agree? I don't think all Au Ras (nor all Eorzeans) will immediately be comfortable with how they look, so ways to conceal their features would be a nice addition to justify the fact that you CAN start the game as an Au Ra.
Plus, I didn't really specify it has to be exactly like Yugiri's. something that matched their starting outfits would be best imo, so in the white/black tones. The shape could be different too for that matter, but I still think they deserve something to hide their faces/horns.
With that in mind, if that is the case there is no reason for them to hide their appearance because they'd be following Yugiri into Eorzea more than likely and she's going to be unmasked this month.
I will say that I'm not opposed to a similar hood/mask type thing getting added, I just don't feel it needs to be Au Ra racial gear.
