Ai-yi-yi… found this monstrosity while exploring the Sacred 2 wiki: the High Elf’s “Frozen Gems” equipment set. Double bingo at least, maybe even a triple. Bottom two rows for sure.
I’m only surprised her buttcheeks are covered properly. Going by the rest of this design, battle thong should be a given.

Figured that this Goddess Primal Chaos dressup doll-style armor would make an excellent bingo material and boy was I right.
Whenever I look at this underwear lady next to that spiky atrocity, can’t help but wonder whether the underwear stays in its place or disappears after applying the drafty armor. It would be pretty damn awkward if her underpants were gone after she put on this crotchless bottom part… On the other hand, if the bra didn’t disappear, it would be showing through the boob window, and as we all know visible breast support is a big no-no for boob windows.
I was bored so I decided to play some Female Armor Bingo with Flip Flappers! For the last three here’s the one and only example of what the male version of the same outfit looks like.
So… everything I could find say this is a show is a sort of Magical Girl type deal and generally seems to be aimed at teenage girls and young women.
Except for various random traits like these costumes and moments like…
I’m not convinced this is a great way to market to multiple demographics.

Chandra Nalaar’s costume never ceases to amaze us in how unapologetically it ignores even the most basic things about how armor (or any material involved in making it) works.
Let’s once again list all the nonsense here that goes beyond the usual sexualized armor tropes:
This is the Gunslinger class image from Revelation Online. A guy in a
Guild Wars 2 Facebook group recommended this. Why, I don’t know, there
is zero resemblance to GW2 here.
…on second thought, GW2 also has centaurs, at least. And guns, I
guess? But at least when GW2 does boob armour, both sides are the same
size, and no-one in Tyria has sticks for arms. How does she hope to fire
anything with THAT stance and THOSE arms? And why is her head so small?
To match the tiny top hat? Why anything in this picture? ôO
For bonus hilarity, the German version of the site translated her
class as “Scharfschütze” -> “sharpshooter”. Someone looked at this
and thought “yep, that’s what a proper sniper looks like”.
And they were so proud of her, they used her as the header image,
too. I think? It’s a little hard to tell, to be honest, the faces look
nothing alike, the guns seem to have turned from weirdly thin shotguns
to some sort of flintlock pistol, and those ridiculous shoes are a bit
distracting.
She’s less a centaur woman than an emu woman. Maybe this game is meant as a dramatization of the Great Emu War*?
I’m not sure what part find most amazing… that they seem to have tried to spin this costume into quasi-steampunk without adding goggles and pointless cogs (how is that hat staying on her head?) or that she is, by far, not the most ridiculously clad class option:
They didn’t remember to give the “Swordmage” a sword.

Half mark on thigh highs… because while they’re her sock/stockings they’re made of leather so they basically have all of the hazards of being boots. Nothing like the male equivalent is well, none of the guys got sexy costumes.
The tweak? Well people were upset that Witch Mercy still kept her traditional tagline of “Heroes never die!” instead of antagonist Witch Mercy’s tagline of “My servants never die!”

On the topic of fantasy ball games… yes that’s what these are supposed to be figures for – including the strange fantasy mech that has wood boobs.
Personally I love how they’re very concerned about the safety of shoulders… kind of. Like they don’t want enough protection to help, but they want enough you hit something other than the lady’s shoulder.
