    While we can't guarantee that a /facepalm emote will be implemented, we will continue to add emotes as we go!

    They DID IT! <3

    I don't understand this, this game seems very tame compared to others? Or am I missing something. OP's request isn't likely I feel. Tank gear is pretty covered.

    Sexy =/= Sexist

    And I am suddenly reminded of the "Real Women Don't Wear Dresses" trope. (note, link leads to TvTropes; I will not be held responsible for wasted hours browsing that bloody site)

    The problem is that some people want a "feminine" variant on the Dark Knight armour for female characters, while others want it to be the same for both genders. I don't personally care at all, since I'm not going to be wearing the female version of the armour anyway, but it's an interesting discussion to watch.

    Asking for a few sexy alternatives isn't necessarily sexist, but complaining that there's something non-sexy certainly is. Not everything has to be sexy.

    Now, personally, I think it should fit better, but I like the fact that it's not sexy.

    Feminine doesn't necessarily equate to sexy, y'know. This is Dark Knight we're talking about here; if SE manages to make it menacing without making it clearly masculine, that's probably the best outcome. Although honestly, I'm just happy they're not giving different stats to female equipment. Remember the Wizardry games that had some really OP female-only items?

    Seeing as the op wants only the FEMALE gear changed so they can run around half naked it more sexist than sexy.

    Wanting one thing =/= hating all the other things

    Saying one wants a sexier AF for females, I does not states that he hates sexy stuff for males

    People, stop using "sexist" argument, because that is just harassing the people as sexists

    No you can't not here at least, everything leads to sexism here.

    No, but the argument that it should be specifically the female version that's made more sexy is sexist. If someone wants both male and female versions to be made more sexy, then the only arguments would be about whether that's a suitably "dark knight" sort of style. Since the request was specific to the female version, however, there's the added sexist element to it.
