I wasn't able to see a store or some way of looking at outfits. How many different choices of attire are there? I RP'd in SWTOR, and they have sooooooo many clothing options, whereas BDO has bupkis in comparison. Where does FF fall? Can I make something that looks unique, or are there 4 overused outfits that I have to choose from?
There are a loooot of options, especially since you can change your class to have new outfit options. For example, my character is in no way a Summoner, but I switch to Summoner to wear an outfit only DPS spell casters can wear. This site can give you an idea of the diversity of outfits, and they add more quite frequently.

I've never played a Final Fantasy game. I know who Cloud is and I know what a chocobo is. I think I saw the CGI movie a long time ago? I know 7 is known as the best. How screwed am I for RP? Obviously, I'd learn as quick as possible what the basics are, but is his universe very unique in the way it is created?
You don't really need to know much, if anything, about previous FF games here. Aside from names and some themepark-y things, everything is unique to XIV. There is quite a lot of lore, but it's fine if you don't know it all, because chances are your character would only know a tiny portion of it. The stickies in the Lore Discussion board are a good place to start.
