Female here, ready to accept red thumbs but:

Sometimes the whole porn armor thing really ticks me off. Guys like tits and that's something we just gotta live with, but the fact that it's supposed to be armor annoys me. Give your stomach a poke. Nothing there but skin, fat, and your vital organs which, if hacked with an axe, will result in a slow, agonizing death. Kinda stupid to have midriff-baring armor, then. I like a degree of realism in my games, and battle bras aren't exactly realistic armor-wise. (I think that's one of the reasons I liked Skyrim, because even on the female models (with the exception of the fur bikini) the armor was actually armor, and it was damn good-looking armor too.) I think I'd be okay with scantily-clad ladies if it was relevant to the situation, like walking into a bar full of wenches or something, but metal lingerie isn't my thing.

I choose to rationalize it (as a male who doesn't really care for metal lingerie):
> The armor is ******* magic. Less armor is there because it's more magical.
OR
> You get this armor later. It's not a matter of defense from the armor, it's a matter of strength of the user. You become more and more powerful and you shed more and more armor. You sacrifice your protection that you so relied upon earlier for agility and the ability to rely on your skill.

And that's why it doesn't bother me.

I'd be all for metal lingerie, but it chafes horribly. You can't fight evil with armor that injures you more than the actual fighting.

Dark Souls specializes in bulky armor for both genders.

but I agree with you. I'm a guy and I like me some sexy exposable armor on females (and sometimes, maybe, males), but it get's old after awhile.
It's like "Oh god, boobs, how menacing and powerful".
I mean, I don't see why almost every game company has to do this.
It's starting to get less attractive, actually

I'm going to post my opinion because everyone else is.

If I wanted to look at tits, I would just go on the internet and go look at tits. Problem is though, is that all games are doing this now a days, look at Cortana namely. Starts the game as an AI with blue skin. Ends the game as a woman with huge tits and round ass, and her skin has been made to look like a bikini. Sex appeal any games is really annoying. At least for me.

MFW I start up almost any game now a days and see the first female.

Female also. I know what you mean and I agree comepletely, especially with it being relevant. Like, I don't actually mind all leathery attire like the Demon Hunter from Diablo or Fiora from LoL, imo it's sexier, and that is because it makes sense. They have a ligther leather around their joints for the maneuverability. Though I suppose this wouldn't appply for heavy Tanks.

I actually agree with you. I always found the female armor design in most games to be ludicrous. I often choose guy avatars simply because they cover up more.
Not all games make their female characters wear ridiculous outfits but a great number of them do and I just really like putting good armor that covers up all the weak points on my character just so I feel as though they have a fighting chance at living.
I do admit I go with the females sometimes because it makes me laugh when they survive. The opponents are obviously retarded if they can't gut a person who has their midriff exposed.

I'm a female, and I prefer the skimpy armor. Hell, I do naked dungeons sometimes, just to see my gorgeous CBBE ass. :3
I also have male mods too, though. When I loot a man, he gets buttnekkidd with severe rigor-mortis, if ya know what I mean.

Thanks for checking my spelling. BTW what I'm really pointing out is that all games are equal in genre and by preference of the gamer. Implying real games are just wow and games with a badass feature makes it a real games makes you sound like an elitist prick. Oh, and I enjoy all genres of games anime style, skyrim, heavy mmorpgs like aion, old school gameboys, ps games, mini games and even some Ipod casual games. Let others enjoy their choices.

I haven't said wow is the superior game, I just meant that the most free mmorpg's have armor that exposes girls alot - wich we were talking about.
I just took wow as an example, in wich there are not so much exposing armor but instead cool gear and armor.

I want to play WoW, it looks really fun, but I've heard it's very addictive, and I can't really afford that right now. Plus, it's a monthly fee game, which has never been an attractive pay plan to me. I'd rather play up front than every month, I don't know why.

I'm aware they have that "Free to level 20" thing going on, but by then you'd probably be too attached to the game to stop.

And my connection is ****, so large downloads tend to drop.

WoW isn't funny anymore, Mist of Pandaria (the last expansion) simply killed that game.

But then you actually play the endgame and take off your nostalgia goggles and see that it's the best expansion since TBC.

So blizzard gave in and made it a kid friendly game.
So yeah, since WOTLK, the game was really easy. I still enjoyed the raids though.
But then cata came, and wow sucked ass.

The ******* pandas unfortunately are the lesser evil.

- weakest storyline ever
- complex talent trees replaced with idiot-proof passives
- horrible dungeons and only 1 good raid (the one with that giant spider thing was actually funny, but i enjoyed only that boss)
- servers full of 12yo who rushed in because of the tv spots
- you must do dailies every day of the week or you can't gear properly
- ******* pandaren monks everywhere
- the wizards are op as always

A game can't be addictive.

If you play it and you don't like it, you will stop.
It's not like taking a drug that you can't stop take.
The only reason you would get "addicted" to it, is if you would enjoy playing it, so you play it more.

male here.
Sometimes, the whole full body armor thing really ticks me off. Every day I walk into an armor shop where women can buy scant armor that gives great protection due to its magical properties. Yet, the only armor available for men is full body ******** that really cuts off maneuverability. If women can get great armor that doesn't slow them down, why am I always stuck with big bulky ****? Why cant I ever find something that both protects me AND shows of my washboard abs?

Behind the marvelous washboard abs are nothing but guts that you need to keep intact if you want to do things like moving. Or breathing. or living. Also, I doubt this is every girl's viewpoint, but personally I think full armor is pretty cool-looking on a guy.

And pretty much every game has light armor anyway.
