I never ended up doing anything with the dyes, but I did mess with the clothes a lot. I agree that much of it was silly looking. I tried to get better clothes for Dagran and Syrenne to cover up all that skin, but everyone else looked better in their original outfits. Then, I’d change their clothes to improve their stats, and then they’d just look goofy in their new garbs. And it frustrated me the game let us choose items another character had equipped, so I’d often spend all this time upgrading everyone, only to find I had undone everything by basically transferring one shirt to each person in turn.

I spend way too much time playing around with clothing and dyes in the game. I really liked that there was so much choice there! (Though many of the items looked utterly ridiculous, Dagran’s chaps included.) Considering that, I certainly would have traded having actual choice in the game’s story over playing dress-up.
