This topic was chosen by @edasypogon as a prize in the Break the Bingo Competition and features their OC Cui.  Unfortunately it took much longer than expected due to redraws and other issues. 

For those interested @macabremasquerade did an excellent post with links to some firearm holstering solutions specifically built around hips and boobs.  Overall though, the reality is that you only get extreme problems with armor and equipment when you get to extreme bodies – and the wide range of female bodies you see every day shouldn’t be “extreme”.

This was part of a much larger bit by Extra Credits on messages sent by games and how design decisions can (even unwittingly) transform games into propaganda.  Games do have an interactive aspect, but the core principles remain true for any media product.

Overall it’s a very important aspect that creators should consider with any sort of system where appearance changes with progress – whether it’s part of item choice, character plot arc or just revising character appearances between chapters.

There’s a reason we have the “More Advanced Armor = Skimpier” box on the Female Armor Bingo.
