I've come to notice that Battlegrounds doesn't seem to propose as many choices of clothes than Roleplay did.

Maybe there is a reason for it that I don't know. But one thing I liked doing (at least when creating a new character) is to try out different types of clothes and such.

I'm mostly looking at the unexpensive and colorable clothes for this message. For example, a "Loose shirt" from Roleplay helped me pinpoint my character's outfit better, while completing with one of the pre-colored skirts (the already present colorable one already does the trick just as well, though).
Another example are shoes. I believe I've only seen sandals in the shop as of now, what about normal shoes pretty much like the newbie shoes, but colorable?

Long story short, I'm just thinking allowing a wider choice of clothes, even if just starter ones, could help have a more personal appearance.

There's definitely plans to gradually add more and more in terms of equipment and items. The reason you don't see all of the choices from the RP server is that those were really designed and balanced with a different kind of gameplay in mind and they all need to be reconsidered before being added to the PVP version.

That said, I was hoping to get a nice item-based content patch out this month sometime but my situation has made doing those sorts of updates really super tedious so I'm unsure how that'll work out.

Well, I can understand that's how it'd be for things such as armors and other equipments that involve having stats to them.
But again, I was mostly wondering about the normal clothing, that one can wear at any time. There are a few more sorts I've seen in RP.

That said, I understand that some unexpected things may happen. Take your time, it doesn't require any rush. Hope things will get sorted for you.

For purely cosmetic items (wearables that have no stats) I'd like to implement some kind of cosmetic slot system so that you can look fancy without having to remove the armor you're wearing.

That's a few steps down the road though, but I do understand the desire for cosmetics in games like this.

Okay, sounds good!
That would be an interesting system to have indeed. But indeed, it's not the thing that should be prioritized right now!

Keep it up, I'm looking forward to seeing this server advance!
