So, these are the three classes in the RPG app game MU Origin.
One of these things are not like the other.
Half-mark for the battle thong since while I can’t see the back, based off the front and the fact they basically avoided giving her pants – I feel pretty confident that’s a thong.
Also, briefly, let’s discuss possible interpretations of the wording/image matching on this particular set of promotions shown together on the site:
This is why it’s near impossible to satirize this shit.

HiRez’s newest goddess, Terra, Roman goddess of earth, versus Geb, Egyptian god of earth.
And naturally Terra is just another sexy human female character with with a (rock) bikini.
And Geb is a literal massive chunk of sentient rock.
¯_(ツ)_/¯
I wanted to make some statement about hopefully this will not be responded to by someone claiming SMITE uses only non-sexual, historically accurate nudity for their depiction – but experience tells me that kind of hope is merely the first step on the road to Disappointment.
You would think given they’ve shown they have at least an inkling of what Roman armor looked like – they’d at least try something vaguely Roman themed. Instead we got.
Oh, and for those who already typed up their angry comment that since Terra was often depicted as topless or even nude, this is an “improvement” – I invite you to look up how Geb was depicted and this ask yourself why is that all the Egyptian gods in Smite are depicted inhuman creatures but all the Egyptian goddesses are depicted as sexy ladies.
HiRez has zero concerns about the authenticity of it’s designs, is highly problematic in a wide variety of ways and swapping out non-sexualized nudity for ridiculous hypersexualized nonsense is certainly not an improvement.

hercules has more than its fair share of eye candy but this takes the cake
Hercules: The Legendary Journeys really did seem to have some strange issues when it came to female character attire. I personally will never forget the “Ancient Greek” they gave to Atlanta to best take advantage of them casting champion body builder Corinna Everson:
And of course, it was also a battle thong:
Because… what better way to make a cheesey show set in Ancient Greek that promotes great values like gender equality?
Sigh.
