like, look at that unrevealing protective bullet-resistant suit, mmhm
look at all that sass
“u wanna take this outside, punk”
dang
why don’t game companies do this more often
y would u need “sexy” armour when u can get protective full-body armour that’s already sexy and also sexier
I thought this would also be a place to point out that not only can practical armor make a female character even sexier, so can all other visual indicators of badassery:
Plate armor isn’t exactly spandex, but it’s also not a tank you wear on your body.
And like, any male ranger/thief/whatever agility based class character is not going out in a metal speedo, so why exactly are female warrior/strength/heavy armor + weapons type characters in chainmail bikinis?
The agility defence is the official worst argument when it comes to fantasy armors.
And a little bit more on why the “women aren’t strong enough to wear armor” myth is just absurd.
Remember, in times of war they used to fit hundreds of soldiers in this stuff and expect them to fight all day with heavy weapons. Armor had to be light enough allow an “average” man with training to use it reliably, which means it’d be easily usable for the “average” woman with the same training.
