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

Hey man, what happens in Ul'dah, stays in Ul'dah.

Then add a optional bulge on female gear for those who identify as trans/futa.

Absolutely to this! Why is it this wasn't already implemented but breast sliders were is beyond me

Probably because of reverse sexism in the community

Skai William's claimed his father took the money he borrowed to get a bulge enhancement, so maybe we could work out the same thing with Yoshida with our characters. :3

Lol, jokes aside, I still support the bulge enchantment for male characters, because if the female characters can have a breast slider and 2B's butt as gear then why not give the male characters something more, too!

It's reared its head enough around here that I am quite sure this thread coming to the surface was expected.

While I couldn't care less if we ever actually get a butt slider, or for outfits like this 2B one that gives the appearance of an ample behind; I most certainly can understand the demand. A bulge slider though? It's gotta be a guy thing or something, and I find it and any commonality to the aesthetic that comes with a butt slider to be ridiculous. Most people I know love a nice butt. I don't know anyone who doesn't feel totally awkward when a chubby is out for all to see.

I wouldn't mind it, but I also think that people equivalate it to things that doesn't make any sense.
I can't even begin to think of how many times I've seen people equivalate it to breast sliders, the whole argument of '' if there's breast sliders then why no bulge slider ''?
It's as if people don't even actually think about things that they're saying beyond the most base level imaginable.

I mean breasts aren't the equivalent of dicks, and even if you're VERY hung you're not going to see it unless the character is literally in their underwear.
You can be super hung and it's not going to be noticed unless you have an erection of steel and the pants are loose while breast size will be very noticable unless it's all squished in and even then it will be.
It's a bit amusing to me how people often accuse others of '' not knowing how boobs work '' if they draw big boobs or boobs that are firm but then they clearly don't know how dicks work lol.

Butts are also way more noticable than bulges, it'd be more equivalent to leg sliders than a bulge slider.
It's stuff that is going to be noticed in most gear while a bulge wouldn't except for basically a speedo or underwear.

I mean, it is a minor aesthetic thing, but as a male, it's just...weird there's nothing there, nothing at all, not even a shade, on both sides. Sure you get used to it but still wonder...why? Let's reverse the genders - How many women (and men...) would complain if suddenly all female characters were as flat chested as a lala. Don't lie, most of you would, it would be such an uproar it would be patched immediately.

Boobs and bulges aren't equivalent to each other, like I said you're not even going to notice the bulge unless you're literally wearing a speedo or underwear.
I do think that there's a lot of homophobia when it comes to this and men with fragile and insecure egos who are afraid of anything even remotely sexual when it comes to male characters and I think that often devs stay away from it as to not upset those people.
But at the same time equivalating boobs to bulges makes absolutely zero sense.

Equivalating them to each other is harmful too because it's why so many people think that women are '' naked '' if they show cleavage.

Question:

If you select a larger breast size in FFIX doesn't almost all of the glamours reduce them to A cups? I can think of two that keep the actual size you chose in the "character creation screen".

[Atreides]

Hard pass on that, this would open the next tier of request i.e. give females a bulge and male characters boobs too because people identify as diverse.
Then I would come and request propeller because I identify as apache helicopter and find it outrageous to not have the option to put that on my character as it's only natural.

In all seriousness tho, still no because it looks outright ridiculous and the majority of people feels unconfortable showing their bulge around for everyone to see while in games people do it for the lulz and love to run around in provoking atire to troll around.
I rather see players with good glams instead of big bulges.

I understand requests such a body hair, more beard options, maybe more muscle tone options and more sliders but not bulges...

[SenorPatty]

I'm in favor of realistic bulge. I would not expect anything out of wearing pants but if I'm wearing underwear/speedos, there has got to be something there, ya know what I mean?

But to be honest, this isn't on my top of the list when it comes to asking for more cc options.

The game needs. Ass.
