when they're coloured they're kind of reminiscent of late 90s early 2000's era high fantasy armor. Kind of interesting since they're from FF11 which came out in 2002 back when fantasy mostly looked like that with really swirly ornamental trimmed plate armor.
Lets face it, the game is dated, even if it was a great game with tons of expansions Final fantasy 14 is overall the superior game in terms of graphics but gameplay wise, ff14 is just different than 11 yet its still familiar which is how I knew how to play the game. I have seen ff14 change so much in the last 10 years. I am legitimately an og player for 14 & even 11 back on my ps2, xbox & finally computer, its just an old game, I prefer 14 because its like a love letter to the final fantasy franchise. Whichever game you prefer, they are both fun games but it did need to be said that 11 is definitely dated & there is no denying it.
I admit the jeuno gear looks nostalgic but I doubt there is going to be a whole lot thats going to make me want to glamour my gear & re-gearing now that im level 100 pld Unless its to buy new gear & keep the exact same look of the devil horns from the halloween event this year & the woodland wardens attire This game is so great, it allows you to really customize your character, except for the lack of hair styles for the femhroth
I liked it a lot too! I’m an aiming main so I’m glad that gear is especially cute. Sadly the casting top simply has a neckline that looks bad on my character 🥲 can’t win everything though
The biggest strengths of these sets is how well they dye, in both first and second dye channels. Really goes to show the importance dyeing gear. However, the many armored high boots are fire as is!
What really sucks as a male character is it feels like the female version of pants will be more of a mini-skirt and tights or a short-shorts and leggings situation, while the male pants are plain and might have some buckles or something. The injustice!!
I had the same initial thoughts about the raid set pieces when I saw them the first time. But I think the Maiming and Scouting (Both) you created came out great! _Sadly I don't have either unlocked, but love to see the amazing looks you can pull off with these items._
Thanks for this! Haven’t tried the new raid yet, but hoping to this weekend. Also appreciate the male looks from your design perspective. I play a cat boy and my partner an au ra girl, and we both appreciate your glam videos.
Maybe it's because I like using armor more than clothes on my glams(I tend to use job-themed glams as a maiming main), but I always liked the Ark Angel gear when I first saw them. They look to me like the perfect kind of medium armor you can put on a wide array of glams to either reinforce that or mute it, unlike the PVP sets from EW which their pieces either look way too bulky/its colors are too hard to work with, or are too leaning too hard on one specific aesthetic that it hurts its flexibility(looking at you, Fierce Tyrant). Which is to say, I'm glad people start seeing the pieces the same way I do once they've actually seen it for themselves. I guess the thigh boots they all get didn't do them justice huh? lol.
I LOVE this so much, I so agree, when I saw the new gear, I was very bleh about it. Amazing to know that you can actually do *something* with the gear! Thank you!!
Aitherea: I'm bad at lightning ok... Dude I learned how to do lighting from one of your vids 😭 Enjoyed the glams tho. You're an actual miracle worker. I tend to like lighter colours for my character, but the gold and black one was my fav The Scouting set was really surprising and cool, especially the 1st one. My character would actually wear the Maiming one. I wanna try it with the Laurel leaves or the thorn crown (I forget the names)
I know theres a pvp laurel for healers as well as a laurel from twin adders grand company but i cant think of any other ones that are dyeable. Those do sound really cool though!
The aiming one and the scouting one with pants both are actually so cute! I'm unironically considering changing my glams to those now - not too attached to my bard glam and I don't really have a plan for ninja for lvl 100 so I might actually try using those rather than over-relying on the mog station! The maiming one is also beautiful! Really loving all these glam videos and huge kudos to you for making the alliance raid gear look good - the gear really isn't my vibe upon first glance but seeing that it can be worked into great outfits, I look forward to trying to repurpose the gear for glam purposes someday!
A lot can be done with some creative clipping of body armors with odd sleeves, like with your first set. People tend to underestimate the mileage you can get with arm and wrist glams imo. Color matching such a pain point in this game. Simultaneously annoying and fun trying to find out which grey on this metal matches that silver undyeable metal there. It’s gotten better but yeah… Subbed though because I mean.. glam and dress up is half of my game these days. Hope to see more of these kinds of videos!
Personally, I have mixed feelings about these gear sets. I am not a fan of all the traces they put on them. I mean, I think you managed to make them look nice but I just don't picture my character wearing that all day doing hunts and fates. However, I like that these DPS tops in particular make your character look super jacked up. I hope they will revisit this effect in future sets.
I just go simple & devil horns from the halloween event this year & with the woodland wardens attire, all stuff I either spent real money on from the shop during that killer sale where things were off up to 40% or earned.
Well liking the gear is in the eye of the beholder, but lady I feel obligated to tell you you sre wrong saying it looks bad! I've not played ffxi, nor am I that edgy or emo anymore, but I am of the idea of "if it's bad nothing can fix it, not even dyes"
the new gear sets look too boring shape-wise yet overwhelming because of metallic texture AND those insanely detailed spirals...they feel so clunky and hard to use, the pattern draws on too much attention but the eye can't focus because of the metal? it's just a mess overall but you made them work (sorta)!!! i like the striking, maiming, and healing outfits ^^
I mean Madam is just the best when girls wear those leggins, bikini armors, leotards and swimsuit is just a hidden blessing in a MMO and it raises morale XD
i am and forever will be upset that the healers and casters don't have the same headpiece this time. i wanted this silly mushroom hat for my healer set, but nooooo. of course this time the two pieces are not the same. -.-
I use the Nvidia filters (the filter is just called "color") just to change the tint of the game -- its very green so i make it more blue. There's also a vibrance slider that i moved up a bit c:
i made a face 2 one that i like but i just dont think i like it more than the cat girl. The smile is weird. They ruined face one completely for me. Id like to try eventually but idk im waiting to actually feel like it and so far my brain is just like "THE CATGIRL IS SO PRETTY AND HER LIPS DYE SO NICELY HOW COULD YOU LET GO OF THAT?" and im like damn you right lets just be a catgirl.
@@Alysaah my pain point is mostly the lipstick :c on miqote its very pretty and glossy and you can get a true pink esp if you pick "light". The light shades also still show up pretty well. On au ra for some reason the lipstick is more matte and the color options are either very coral or purple... it helps a little to click "light" but still cant get the exact shade I want and it's just annoying tbh xD
What kind of style do you usually go for? If you arent into my ideas, looking around on Eorzea Collection might help you find some inspo c: Of course, sometimes these things just don't suit our preferences, and that's fine, too.
We all love pants free, let us rise up against pants!
I agree. Less pants for male characters. We need more skirts and shorts. (there's far too many similar looking slops, holy cow >.
Your glamour videos are some of your best content. Your enthusiasm for glam is highly entertaining
Im honestly always afraid theyll be boring! cuz its just me yapping like "so look at this thing i made, i really like it!" xD

@sammicopor I am legally obligated to yell at kids to get off my lawn.
@@sammicoporhow can someone write this much yet say so little.
What did any of that have to do with the outfits
I dont think its ugly but its not my cup of tea id rather wear other things
I'm glad i'm not the only one who figured out that removing pants can fix the balance on so many gearsets
and here i was thinking im just a hoe. I'm not a hoe! its about balance!!
when i got a miniskirt and tight mini shorts........every single glam started to look SO much better 😭
I need more of those Videos. This is such an inspiration to not just throw away the ugly gear. I like that!
@@blueneko201 agreed. Would love to see her do more of these types of vids
I actually ended up liking the alliance raid gear more than I thought I would once I saw it in-game.
I admit the jeuno gear looks nostalgic but I doubt there is going to be a whole lot thats going to make me want to glamour my gear & re-gearing now that im level 100 pld

These all look great! Can't wait to start playing with these myself once I get all of the raid gear! Thanks for the inspiration!
I read that as "can't wait to start playing with myself" at first 😂

12:46 serving CVNT :) Love all these looks...well done!

With the Healing and tank bodies, if you're pants inclined: Rebel Boots + Scientist's works really well - especially if you break out the dyes.
I actually thought the gear looked really ugly, so tbh I love this vid

But I think the Maiming and Scouting (Both) you created came out great!
_Sadly I don't have either unlocked, but love to see the amazing looks you can pull off with these items._
i wished we had a choice with the models for the Makai outfits, i love most female looks for my bunboy and the head pieces would look cute on them
Love your glams! Totally gonna use that aiming one on my Dancer.
Very pretty! I love your glams!
inspring me to make glams with these tops! they look so good

some of the pants look a lot better than expected, too... but yeah then they cover it with thigh boots xDD
I'm definitely going to be looking for that striking chest drop.
Finally, the end game video I was looking for. XD
Scouting, very purple, very nice

I love your video ideas

These look fantastic!! Ty for making them Aitherea! 💚
Don't know the game, context or creator but I love it.
Final Fantasy 14. It's an MMO you can start for free. She has tons of vids to help new people as well (including glam vids)
Well liking the gear is in the eye of the beholder, but lady I feel obligated to tell you you sre wrong saying it looks bad! I've not played ffxi, nor am I that edgy or emo anymore, but I am of the idea of "if it's bad nothing can fix it, not even dyes"
healer glam approved :) even if it's a bit bulky on the waist, as you said.

maiming one was chef kiss
i think that one and striking are my favorite c:
Well isn't this a cute video c: Reminded me I have to get my weekly clear today
Oh no, the pastel pink half naked catgirl thinks the glorious ffxi armors are ugly whatever will I doooooo
I mean Madam is just the best when girls wear those leggins, bikini armors, leotards and swimsuit is just a hidden blessing in a MMO and it raises morale XD
So not everything looks the best in black!
i feel like these pieces throw a lot of brown when you use soot black, and jet black is just too expensive xD
Jet black is always the way :3
i am and forever will be upset that the healers and casters don't have the same headpiece this time. i wanted this silly mushroom hat for my healer set, but nooooo. of course this time the two pieces are not the same. -.-
no pants and pastel x3 pretty!
Time to go glam farming! (I just hope the RNG favours me)
@Aitherea Do you use Shaders? your game looks really good!

I needed this because the alliance raid gear… whew not my style
Hope i could provide some inspiration c:
@ of course! Especially the healing and casting! Very chic.
You have a beautiful voice.
I dont think its ugly, bland for raid gear but you can work with it
Here looking for a reason to do the raid atall 😂
its actually really fun!
Personally, everything with the 2b leggings is already the best XD
Yea. I wish they made them cuter, lol. Question, that free fantadia hasnt made you wanna switch to Au Ra yet 😅?
Don't make her relive the trauma!

Ark angel gear is just inferior to nier
cant argue with that.
True
I mean they look good anyway, just personal preferrence really, but do like the glam ideas.
put some respect on xi's name. it isnt ugly

These outfits would be so much more original without all the 2b boots.
The comment would be so much more original if it wasn't hating on the 2b boots.
@@Sneetok the problem is the lack of good footwear for non-armored sets
2b boots are really good and work with a lot of outfits. If its not broke dont fix it
