It's probably the most frustrating item in every Gem Store purchase. I was about to purchase the Primeval Dervish Armor because of my GW1 Nostalgia, then, I stopped myself. It's an outfit. Again...
Why I think Outfits are bad for the game;
- They allow no level of customization, with the exception of dyes.
- The purchase in the Gem Store is never worth it financially compared to Weapon Skins or Armor Skins, heck... even Glider and Mount Skins.
- Some of the outfits are tailored towards some races better than others, it's intuitive that Sylvari, Norn and Human get more aesthetic appeal than Asura or Charr.
Why I think Outfits are good for the game;
- They help bring some Nostalgia and tie in Lore to customers like myself.
- They can bring in looks that are "out of world"
- They are purely cosmetic and offer no functional in-game differences.
I would propose that the GW2 Team heavily consider changing all outfits to individual armor pieces, and discontinue outfits how they are currently made. I know personally I would purchase more items from the Gem Store if they were individualistic armor pieces.
Can we have an honest conversation about "Outfits?"

Can we get a dev response? This seems to be a topic worth discussion.
