Why Does A Fierce Race Of Female Warriors...

You can change it you know, only pervy guys will keep that starter gear. What about highlander hempen set then? Just keep first person camera so you don't have to see higher

That's... is it sexist if you go after someone's sexual orientation? :thinking:

...look like strippers? Come on, S.E.

I was looking forward to playing a Viera for something different but that starting outfit is too much for me to overlook. They look like they are straight out of Forsaken World.

I thought you were better than that, Square Enix. Count me as disappointed.

Why strippers? I mean, are the Viera naked because strippers are. No? Then they don't look like strippers.

Typical stereotyping....

It's sexist for thinking all of one sex feels, thinks or acts a certain way.

What I mean to say is girls can like seeing girls. And non pervy guys could also keep them in default to nothing.

To say only pervy guys would do such a thing is literally wrong. I just can't put my finger on a term that eclipses how wrong they are.

That's how they always looked.

That's how they always dressed.

That's how they always dressed and looked soooo they should be changed because of your opinion of it?

*nods*

I know that now. I was unaware of their prior presentation when I made my original post. This MMO and the original Final Fantasy are my only exposure to the franchise.

So that said, no. I don't believe the gear should be changed. It's an homage to the original viera gear.

you are being completely RIDICULOUS. They do NOT look like strippers. They are dancers and need less clothing to move around more freely. Also, they are more natural and less sensitive about showing more skins than hyurs (humans) dont be a perv. Warriors races dont all need stupid ugly heavy armor. Dont be insensitive. Are you just crying out for attention?

Nope, I'm not crying out for attention. I just didn't like what I saw and let SE know my opinion.

I'm not seeing how having an issue with a set of starter gear, which I feel objectifies women, makes me a pervert or insensitive.

Why strippers? I mean, are the Viera naked because strippers are. No? Then they don't look like strippers.

Typical stereotyping....

The starter gear reminded me of what some of my friends would wear when they were working. Make of that what you will.

And, I am talking about the starter gear. I'm not calling Viera a race of strippers.

Well "sexist" is usually the go-to term people use when something like that comes up. I can't think of a stronger word either. I mean calling someone sexist is already pretty bad in and of itself so.....

Of course there's always "homophobic" since those two words are typically thrown around together.

I'm a straight female and I'm totally gonna sport that starter gear now and then. The husband may question why I'm running around half naked, but that's not my problem.

It's a term invented for a reason. If someone fits into the definition, then it should be used. No word or phrase of ill intent is good in nature unless it's just one of those words that got twisted in translation.

Someone could say, "I hate X." To not call someone out on it and to let them continue is even worse.

Hahaha omg...
