I don't care about practical armor unless it's a grounded setting. I just want to look like a badass and hot pants and stripper boots ain't it.Just gonna say that I'm a woman and I never opt for practical armor. I know that a lot of people WANT it and I would love for everyone to have practical/modest options, but if someone gives me the chance to battle in like a comfy sundress I will TAKE it. I do not care how silly it looks, I just feel so much happier when my characters are wearing cute clothes.
Which is not to say I love it when female characters are stuck with negligees and boob platters and I get really, really miffed about really bouncy boob physics but mostly because I get really monofocused on like, "Have these people ever seen a breast? Breasts obey the laws of gravity, argh."
But in general, if you offered me a choice between a bikini and full coverage plate armor, I'll take the bikini.
Yeah, basically this.I don't care about practical armor unless it's a grounded setting. I just want to look like a badass and hot pants and stripper boots ain't it.
getting banned for a whole month just because I wanted to clarify what the word "racism" - a word a LOT of people use instantly without giving a second thought - actually means.
never change resetera and bye. this is no place to discuss anything for sure. enjoy your entitlement and rage about topics you don't even directly suffer from in the first place. banning a woman in a feminist thread because she had the nerve to speak up, gg mods :)
while you're at it, delete my account as I can't do it myself
The early swordsman job lines in RO are probably the best character designs in the game. I really like them
Swordsman
Knight
Crusader
But after that, the designs strip away most of the utility
Lord Knight
Paladin
Then we get to the third jobs. Rune knight went through a redesign settling on the last one
Rune Knight
Overall not super egregious, if typical anime swordswoman fare. Now we come to the final job stage of the Crusader posted above
Royal Guard
The Crusader line just strips away all the armor haha. I guess they thought the big shield was modest enough. I remember another player on a private server back in 2011 complaining about it and wishing she could change the sprite. Which eventually you could. They added alternate job sprites. These are the alt designs
Rune Knight v2
Royal Guard
Yep, as I explained earlier in the thread, I finally went with male for this one, and seeing this example makes me think I made the right choice. I hope Capcom lets you choose your armor variant regardless of the character body type in the future.Yeah. :/ Especially the Wroggi Armour, some cool Western Outfit for Male types, while the female one still doesnt have any pants. Shit sucks.
I was really hoping Rise would have been better with regard to female armours after that leaked Capcom memo last year :/
I don't get why they don't just let people choose between armour designs, rather than force dumb templated sexualised ones on female characters.
I think it was more about female roles than designs, wish they improved both aspects

Yeah that's a really good point. Capcom so close to getting it, yet so, so far!This is a very weird thing considering the character creator goes with "Type 1" and "Type 2" instead of "Male" and "Female" like you'd usually expect
It almost made me expect some pretty loose non-binary friendly rules in regards to outfits, a la Animal Crossing, but nope.

Haven't touched Pokemon since the 5th gen but is it possible that's just an edit made by the localisation company to the script? Animal Crossing: New Horizons rephrased the gender selection in the character creator to being about picking your 'style' but that was only for the English release, every other one still asks if you want a boy or a girl villager. Could be something similar?That's like Pokemon. They don't ask "Are you a boy or a girl" anymore, but outfits are locked anyway.
It's like they are trying, but don't have a clue lol
??I hate when people say things like "this character looks nothing like a knight" or whatever their job is. Like you don't have to like the character but this kind of obvious "I can't take a woman who looks or dresses a certain way seriously" is so blatant and stupid and it bugs me.
Ragnarok Online is directly based off of Lee Myung-Jin's manwha Ragnarok, which ended early so he could work on the game. Given the source material, not too surprising - more or less every named female character in said manwha is dressed like so.

I have no idea what you're talking about if you aren't talking about this thread, then. Care to give an example of a knight character who unfairly not treated seriously because they're a woman?I'm sure you could say this in some situations but sometimes people are just mean with it and of course only ever target women. I just don't believe that most people say things like "there's nothing knightly about this character" and then other stuff like that because they are sincerely concerned that a character in a game where no one wears armor isn't wearing enough armor.
I'm not talking about anything in this thread by the way, I am just venting about other threads.
Wait a sec......Regarding Monster Hunter, I'd love it if they have parity between the body types so that you can have bulkier armour regardless of what you choose, and on top of that have the the same choices for male characters that the female characters have with regards to more flowing clothes (although from what I saw from the Rise demo, some of those clothes clip through the legs, cloth physics still have a long way to go).
But they only do this kind of parity for goofy looking armours, such as this old Plesioth armour which feels like "what if Elvis came from Atlantis" and "what if 3 Stacks' platinum wig expanded and covered his whole body".
One of the worst examples of armour being different depending on the character you create is the Hermitaur armour, which has the concept of fantasy armour inspired by protective NFL gear, but the women's version just throws that idea out completely, leaving only the colour and markings to connect it to the original.
They're talking about the leaked Genshin character Eula which I said in the Genshin thread has literally nothing in the design to indicate they're a knightI have no idea what you're talking about if you aren't talking about this thread, then. Care to give an example of a knight character who unfairly not treated seriously because they're a woman?
Thanks for the explanation.They're talking about the leaked Genshin character Eula which I said in the Genshin thread has literally nothing in the design to indicate they're a knight
because they don't
The idea that it's unfair to say so because she's a woman haha oh boy
Shining Star just @ me next time
Here's NPC knights in the same game, they're all Knights of Favonius
Fun thing about Noelle is that she is godly strong. Still it not reflected in her design.
Also GI team continue to find ways to have a lady that is generally fully cloth but have some sort of exposed skin.
Thanks for the explanation.
I agree with you that this character in no way resembles a knight. She looks like she's dressed to go to a Babymetal concert.
lol @ the idea that people criticize this design "because she's a woman". Are you kidding me hahaha
huh i mean those are the only two outside of the npc's that are members of the knights that even look like knights
huh i mean those are the only two outside of the npc's that are members of the knights that even look like knights
amber and lisa who are knights don't look like knights and kaeya
that's no knight, pirate(which may be his family's history but who can say) yes but knight like his job title no
fair but she is a leaked character, is her role known is her other job known yet is she just a knight or like the other characters i mentioned something else? fair to criticize the design though,Yes, but Amber has a pilot inspiration which fits her role, Lisa a witch in charge of tomes and Kaeya a pirate/rogue
Eula has the theme of lingerie model and nothing else
fair but she is a leaked character, is her role known is her other job known yet? fair to criticize the design though
I think I figured out the role that they designed her for it's definitely a very sexualized aristocrat design in my opinion she'll probably talk in that overly proper wordplay aristocrats are known for. But yeah titania works as a counter example.Spindrift Knight, Captain of the Knights Reconnaissance Company, from an aristocratic family. Claymore user
So on the kind of "good" end of the spectrum you think of Titania from FE:PoR

What's weird to me is that they have female characters with more decent outfits like Jean who are still very much appreciated and beloved by their community but something tells me it will be a while before I see a female character that doesn't wear high heels for combat, even their younger female characters have them.
The heels thing is more of a "we are recycling this rig over and over" thing
There's probably about 4 female bases and 3 male so all the characters on one base are gonna follow the same silhouette
2 lady rigs with small heals the Qiqi sized one and the Main Character sized, 2 large heels with Fischl size and Jean size
