I get that this a game meant for entertainment purposes so concessions can be made (i.e the bunny suit and other crazier sets), but at the same time they're still trying tell a specific story in a specific setting so things need to be a specific way.


I used to tank in a variant of this outfit (different boots and upgraded to a much cuter necklace) Am I like, breaking the time line by doing my best job cross dressing and not wearing armor while I tank????

Oh god, am I the reason SB's story wasn't as well received as HW!? WHAT HAVE I DONE!?!
