Now that butt enhancing gear is a thing, can we get bulge enhancing gear someday?

[Nandrolone]

Just trying to get into the thought process... I'm going to log in and see how my character's bulge looks today, that sounds totally normal and not pervy at all right? Like those players who enjoy staring at their female avatar's breasts in Limsa Lominsa. I doubt this will ever be implemented.

Having a normal libido is “pervy” to you? Yikes..

To the people who are saying this would lead to perv players sitting around have you ever searched on google images or yahoo images any game character people already do that the fact is humanity is lustfull and will do what you worried about rather there is a way or not the player will make a way if they really want to do it they will do it stop using that as a excuse to not do this or not do that. I mean kh never shows anything but I still always stare at axels lower part of the rope lol

The Hrothgar can't be that noticable with that item, right?

*One internet search later.*

Holy shit, they're packing. I'm in favor of this.

They don't need a slider to make this happen, which is what the original poster suggested.

You only need to adjust the model of the clothing items that would show it. Things like subligars, the shi-sui set, and some of the swimwear fore example can just have some slight bulging as part of the clothing model without putting in the work to create another character creation option. I think the 2B panties prove they can do this considering how much rear enhancement those provide....

The issue, the way I see it, is that following the suggestion of the 2B bottoms, is that they'll just limit the option to certain items only, rather than it being an option that is available to your character customization option.

Adding it as a character customization option is a bit of an issue for two reasons:

one means that either it will never show up unless you're wearing specific items (they already do this a little bit with breast size. You can put breasts to size 0 and still get some pretty big ones with certain tops) so they might flatten you down in most men's pants. Also it would mean that they would have to adjust every item that does show it for the entire range of size, making it more work than just adding it to items that need it at a set size.

second one, though, is that if it's a character customization option means that you will be forced to pay extra to adjust that aspect of your character. Imagine if, using the breast size example, that all breasts were the same size always, then they added the ability to adjust them smaller and larger, but you had pay them to make that happen. This would not go over well.

I think SE is reserving buttsliders & Thighsliders in the near future o boy imagine how many Fantasia being purchase when that happens! Especially for Balmungs case!

Why just balmung though? I'm on multiple worlds on multiple data centers and in every hub there's people left and right in bikini glams and 2Bottoms. Why do you need to call out a specific world for something people NA wide might love?

The same can be said for items as a whole. Granted, things like tie Itinerant moogle is bringing back some items you'd have difficulty getting today still but limiting to items would immediately leave out anyone who wasn't there for the item when it was in demand.

Secondly, them limiting the way items and glamours work on certain sizes is a decision tjhey are free to make, they limited the size to fix clipping with the 2B bottoms and people were furious so I doubt people will have an issue with the "sizes being less restrictive" if it allows them to use the item in whatever manner they would like.

There is not reason to be forced to pay extra, they already know people buy fantasia by the dozen and if an update came with character customization it would make sense for them to lift some, ideally we shouldn't unless it was gender/race swapping but that is a completely different can of worms

Not sure how butt=bulge.

I'd think butt=butt and if they made gear that gave females engorged cameltoes then that would = bulge by comparison.

I'm all for increased customization in general, but I question how this would fly with the ESRB.

Exactly this.
