I was reading the latest Mail Sack and when they described everyone being "reset" to fresh, clean Guardians it got me thinking.
Capes and robes and, well, clothing of a flowing-cloth type nature looks awesome when it's been ripped, burned, 'sploded and weathered, but that's also a sign of having been out in the world and having gotten up to some business in your days. I think it would be awesome if new players started out with fresh and clean outfits that became more weathered as you progress through the game. The closest example I can think of would be the way scars work in Fable 2. Only instead of nasty scars across your face you're looking more awesomely rugged.
Procedurally-generated-clothes-weathering, I guess. What do you guys think?

i know it's not quite the same thing but, i would love it to be like trophy type changes on the armour say you've killed a cartain hard boss or maybe an event get some type of ornament on your shoulders or around the armour. they had it in Warhammer online, you had i think 4 slots for cosmetics and you could put whatever trophies you had unlocked on show. Some where for killing amount of people and they looked like Army medals and some were from random events which looked more like fetishes from the monster or whatver you had done. would be cool to have this because you could easily see some accomplishments of people just from seeing that.
