So to me, everyone looks like horizontal poles. They just don't seem to be what they could if the proportions were right.
As a person with a petite body, I appreciate that there is a videogame that actually represents my body type. But, I think the petite bodies should be reserved to certain races. For example, in FFXI, mithra (miqo'te equivalent) were very petite with extremely athletic bodies. They didn't really have a big behind or chest, but other races did. So it would be nice if they did something like that.

But while we're on the topic of proportions... I'm a cosplayer and I enjoy making these costumes. The women have really long legs in this game, yet no one complains about that. Every costume I make, I have to make adjustments for my short legs. But, I'm pretty sure even people with average-sized legs would run into this problem. So why no complaints about the long legs? Because they are 'appealing'?

It's not about wanting proportionate bodies. You just want bodies that fit your ideal. And, that's fine. But let's please call it what it is.
