The hilarious front line in the tragic war against ridiculous female armor

Hecubah the necromancer’s design looks to me like something designed specifically to remind us, in case anyone forgot, that evilness forces sexyness on women.
And I was about to complement the game’s female protag, Sharena on her design
But then
You have this awesome design that you decided to add hotpants to.
And then, the designers took a cue from Fate / Grand Order to really go there

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
(for reference: This is what her brother looks like in the same uniform)
I feel like the designers assumed that if they gave her some sort of lacey panties they felt like they’d get in trouble – so they instead gave her white hotpants so tight there’s cameltoe…. ‘cause that’s better.
Awww, this is as cute as funny! The Little League gives us yet another fine example of Superman exercising male empowerment (and better exposure to sunlight).
Hey Nintendo, I have an idea for a game for you – make a new Zelda game but use bits of these comics from 1990 as the concepts. The bits where Zelda is kicking ass, rescuing the innocent and helping people overthrow evil.
Look at that; warriors in the same (issued) armor, some of them are even *gasp* female. Without the “boob plates”, how will we know?
It’s sad that there are still men out there who “need” gender specific armor in their fantasy worlds.
What I really love about this set is that rather than mess with the female character’s armor to make overly telegraph her gender (and sex appeal) they’ve instead made the armor a standard and let the differences between the characters do the work.
The boyfriend has been playing Fate/Extella: Umbral Star. When he showed me Sabre’s ultimate form I immediately thought of Female Armor Bingo. I couldn’t find a better picture of the armor, but this get the point across.
So for those that aren’t aware, the trailer for Breath of the Wild shows a costume design for Zelda is pretty awesome:
Needless to say, many people were thrilled about this design and generally praised Nintendo for this step forward. Of course, there’s a few folks to who’s primary concern is that you know nobody cares… but there’s also a lot of folks who are very excited and have created cosplay and all kinds of fan art.
So basically the message to take away from this is that when certain people say “who cares” they really mean “I’m deeply upset that other people are enjoying a thing that wasn’t made exclusively for me”.
