What the actual [censored] am I reading about here...

We've been asking for butt sliders for years. The best you're going to get is a leg piece that's extra spikey.

Rated T for Teen, and even with having that rating the game can be pretty dark and inappropriate sometimes. Same could be said about WoW, too. None of it bothers me regardless, but to claim this game is family friendly is...incorrect at points. But by MMO standards it is still pretty tame. Probably the most tame MMO I've played in a long time. I would probably say the ARR MSQ was pretty family friendly though. I've seen darker villains in movies like Frozen. lol

Basically this- butts/breast sliders tend to make sense since in tasteful clothes, whether IRL or in a fantasy world, you're going to see those proportions. You're not going to see someone's junk and you're risking censorship in a lot of countries because you're intentionally crossing into pornography by doing so.An anatomically proportional bulge would be one thing. A slider is just asking for the ESRB to come down on you like a ton of bricks.
Before someone compares it to breast sliders; it's a societal double standard. Women showing off is accepted but men hanging out is vulgar. That's a whole other argument.
Not sure how people are even comparing the two.
I can tell what people's busts are sized just walking around in a family friendly place like a mall, same with butts. A slider for those makes as much as sense as a height or other proportion slider.
Can't say the same for people's junk.
A "junk" slider isn't really necessary. However... the basic male model should not be as flat as a ken doll. It's a biological fact that males have something there. There's nothing "family unfriendly" in having the male character model reflect that biological truth. It doesn't have to be gratuitously large, but there should be "something" there as opposed to the "nothing" we currently have.
If even the slightest three dimensional hint of male genitalia is not "family friendly" then why doesn't the civilized world require men to "tuck" when they go out in public? The answer is simple... because that would be ridiculous. And it's just as ridiculous to create a game character model, that is supposed to be representative of a male, that has a groin area as flat as a board.

sorry but the male model looks perfectly normal to me, maybe you just like to hangout in places where people have erect genitalia all the time.A "junk" slider isn't really necessary.

Personally, I'm never looking at my character's crotch (or any character's for that matter) but even I know that male characters are essentially Ken dolls. It isn't something that bothers me but I'm not oblivious to it either.
