Why must all good gear be girly..

    Your post reminded me of those Scourge Vent/Chat logs And it's amazing:

    I wouldn't call it girly, necessarily, but it certainly is funny that low-tier armor looks threatening while high-tier armor looks like a cosplayer's pajamas.

    I'm thankful that there are visual slots for every armor type so that we don't have to sacrifice visual appeal/customization in order to have decent stats.

    That's beyond it. It's something I'd expect in Warcraft, not when I'm wearing Dead Space-esque armour.

    thats why its so majestical

    It just ends up looking completely out of place. Not only that, the gravity ball has a perfect aesthetic, demonstrating how easy it is to do.
     
  6. Idk, butterflies and purple are only girlie because you have the perception that they are girlie. They're actually just an animal and a color. :)

    Am I the only one in this thread who knows you can put ANY armor into the vanity slots on your character? You know those slots with the eye symbol on them that hide your gear? no? not good enough? *sigh* *leaves thread*

    Can we get a game with a female protagonist that isn't dressed in skimpy clothing please? Women aren't just meant to be a man's fap fantasy, we are real with hopes, dreams and brains, and I dislike games that reduce us down to that. Or games that make us weak and simpering, just waiting for a man to rescue us.

    Pretty cool that the game you're basing that distinction off of is universally panned as crap and the one you're on the forums of doesn't objectify you in any way shape or form huh

    Do not get the PC version, Ubisoft secretly hates PC gamers (the controls are insane.), get a console version.

    The OP of this topic left us one example that is pretty clear, you cant hide the Butterfly boost with ''vanity'', just saying, so dont be hater and join us, we are just having fun with this.

    It does not function in the same way.

    I am a dog and do not understand what the problem is. Butterflys are glorious shades of grey and I enjoy the soapy taste of bubbles. Can one of you two legged savages please explain in civilized terms what is going on here??

    Yet no one ever whines when it's a male that's sexualized, or when it's a male being portrayed in a cliche, stereotyped manner.

    I digress, yes, there needs to be more sophistication in games and less smut like...yeah....

    However I wouldn't say decent female characters don't exist, nor would I say games like Scarlet Blade are the majority.

    Oh, right, might as well post on-topic. At the very least, give us some alternative to the bubble.

    I fully agree to this being a woman myself. I like a more demonic or darker take on armors.

    A cliche, sexualized, stereotyped man is a giant buff Rambo that doesn't let anyone tell him what to do and doesn't take shit from no one.

    A cliche, sexualized, stereotyped woman is a trophy for the giant buff Rambo to use and discard when he's bored of her.

    I wonder why one of these is complained about more.

    I'm laughing so hard xD

    Also, has anyone ever noticed that games about boobs have the WORST boob physics?
    Sometimes I'm just like "... You've NEVER seen an actual, natural pair of breasts, have you.."

    You'd think that they'd employ some woman to come in, take her clothes off and jump up and down.

    I.... I don't get it. I might be a bad person I think

    Also for examples, Wild Arms 3 was pretty good about strong female figures not being oversexualized
