BABD officially on Steam and deviantArt!

Since bikiniarmorbattledamage​’s second and Female Armor Bingo’s first anniversary (March the 1st) approaches, we’re preparing a few surprises.
Till then, though, here’s a surprise for now: BABD now has official groups, run by us, on Steam and deviantArt! Feel free to join them!

Steam group, of course, comes with our own curator recommendation list. It’s still getting updated, but games collected there are the selection of ones that feature badass non-sexualized women warrior characters and/or defy the misogynist status quo in clever ways.
Basically what GamerGaters would never recommend on their list.

deviantArt group is focused on collecting any art (and/or journal entries) that criticize, make fun of or defy skimpy female armor. The gallery so far is sorted into those categories:

  • Parody
  • Sexy Male Armor
  • Positive Female Armor
  • Resources + References
  • General Commentary

If you know (or do) any anti-bikini armor art on dA, submit it to the group! Some of it might eventually end up on the blog (if it didn’t before ;D).

Blizzard “progress”

Liliana submitted:

So, remember when a Blizzard VP was acknowledging how dumb bikini armours were and promised progress in the future? Fantastic. Now a new patch for Diablo III is coming out soon and they’re going to include new sets of armours.

Diablo is known for its ridiculous outfits, but hey Blizzard is starting to get it, and so the new wizard outfit will no doubt be…

Sigh.

Nevermind.

Oh Blizzard… I want to be disappointed in you but it’s so hard when you continually recognize the issues with your products and manage to make your attempts to improve into even bigger jokes.

A tabletop strategy game that offers you stupid armor in all the colors of the rainbow… or semi-thematic background colors all the colors… or… actually why do they even bother pretending it matters?

There’s lots of armies with boobs on display and they allegedly have themes.

Just looking at this cluttered mess and over-saturated color schemes is an eye-strain… And THEN I start to notice all the ridiculous boobage and it just gets worse.
