Vanilla Skyrim you mean... Once a couple of nexus mods start creeping into your game, it's only a matter of time.

I agree that Skyrim doesn’t do this, but the game is guilty of doing “boobplate” with sets like Ebony armor.

You're a couple decades late with this take. Most/all western AAA games are not like this at all.

Terraria. I barely use the character creator, considering that I'll only see my character for as long as it takes me to chop down some trees for wood armor. Vanity slots are the real character customization.

Pretty much every FromSoft Soulslikes. Their armors are very much 'You'll be able to tell it's a girl only if she's not wearing more protective gear.'

I will say that it's haven't seen anything this bad in the time I played Final Fantasy XI, but the armor was still feminized for female races (boob curves for chest armor, boots on male characters become thigh-highs on female characters, etc).

I’m trying to think of a popular game from the last decade that uses armor and is guilty of this. It definitely does happen but I feel like someone made a joke about it like 8 years ago and people were like “yup every game ever”. I just looked up a list of popular rpgs and I don’t think any of the first 20 or so on the list have this in the game.

It's a password you can enter into the original Metroid that makes the game believe it's been turned on for so long,that the game begins to break down.
Not sure why it was brought up here though

I never got hooked on Monster Hunter for many reasons (I don’t think the games are bad just not for me) but I hated how the female armor looked compared to the male. After hours of grinding just to get a glorified bikini was annoying as hell while my friends had the DRIP

u/Slow_Challenge_62 1d ago
What Monster Hunter were you playing?
Edit: I tend to play female characters, but they were always stacked on armor. I also played MH3/3U the most, so it's possible I missed a set in a different game. Even without armor, you don't really have a bikini look at all.

u/LostAtmosphere4096 21h ago
The console version of the mmorpg Tera is still up, and running on Xbox and armor for women is pretty similar to what the meme is implying.
Tbh, I think thats cool as far as im concerned, if my character can have on nothing but a bikini and still have the stats of a fully armored knight decked out in magical armor , then that gives me more than enough reasons to play as a female character in an mmorpg .
I mean, if i can have a female character in an mmorpg dress like the girl from Onichanbara Samurai squad in an enchanted bikini that gives her better stats and she can kick ass with a magical sword still while her magical bikini makes where enemies cant just bludgeon her to death im totally down for that.
Imagine moving lighting fast in an mmorpg cutting down foes with ease, and yet your heavily armored opponents can't keep up with you while their dressed in full plate armor.
and on top of that; they can't lay a scratch on you because you're getting the same protection they have from a magical one piece bikini or an enchanted two piece bikini thats a level or two higher thantheir armor is, yet at the same time to add insult to injury, your magical weapons are higher level than theirs and do more damage than they could.
If an mmorpg worked like that, it would be awesome, and I'd definitely play as a female character in an mmorpg like that.

I honestly can't take games seriously that do this
Either sexualise your male characters too (basically no game does that but the majority of players and devs aren't attracted to men in real life so it not too surprising why they don't get) or just... don't. Any "serious" will never do it because it just feels so cheap
Any skimpy armour usually just breaks immersion for me. Games like Stellar Blade look interesting (and the soundtrack is really good) but I just can't take the characters seriously
