So... in FF14.... the Glamour thing is basically what your talking about.
Yes.... yes people do.
There's tons of people playing MMO's that will struggle through tirelessly, grueling quests and such to unlock stuff.... just to look better / different.
Even myself, I want my character to look good (even if I'm not heavily into it, yes it does matter to me). Also if you character always looks the same, sometimes you just reach that point, your like "it's time for a change".
You see those videos of people, that give zero f***s and purposefully make ugly looking faces and clown like bodies for their characters.
Because the silliness of it it, is fun to them... yeah that's not me. I want my character to look decent.
I'm almost always a male character, since you asked.
In the same way that there's people that make ugly, silly looking characters for a laugh... these people that make sexy babes, as their thing, ' cuz why not? If your gonna spend all that time looking at a character, why not have it be a beautiful lady (they'll say)? Again, that's just not me.
That said, I think most (that don't make the fugly looking silly characters), will want to have their character look badass or sexy or whatever.
So I think this is something that actually does matter to a large majority of the gamers out there. edit:

To the extent that I like to make my character look cool where possible, yes. I don't dress up female characters just for my own nefarious purposes. |
^ this. He just said it so much more concise.

Yeah and here I am, playing the little lalafel character so my character can take up less space and I can tank better. I get it though, I got quite addicted to it myself, especially after they added trans mog and the fact that you have so many classes to outfit. Love it. It gives games such as that an extra bit of love and a reason to grind for Gear. Alas, some games fail to hit the mark with characters and gear... look at Concord, what a disaster.
