The tawdry female bosses are tiresome, and we could do with more male fanservice.

it's not just the lack of clothing, it's also the beautiful faces. which one of the near naked male bosses ALSO has a handsome face?

[gumas]

well at least it still tame compare to other "anime" esque mmo out there (blade and soul, black desert, tera, etc)

at least in here their pose are strongly on "alluring" aspect at best. other mmo like blade and soul are literally showing it front center as their focus like literally the majority of their pose and art just scream "look at here!!! yes this part!!! here!!!" at least thats how i see it.

I agree other eastern mmos do it way worse.

Byakko, Zurvan and Titan. Their faces aren't unattractive and they conform to conventional beauty standards for men.

(it would be useful if people would specify when it's an Eden version, i was looking at regular titan and ifrit all this time, and I was like HOW is this any attractive at all?!) XDD

Hey! Not cool man, no kink shaming pls. OG Titan is CHONKY.

if were female you bet that ass would be on display

Well, the female boss doesn't seem to have it on display either and seems more covered to me.

Please stop it.

I am female and I too would like some mostly nekkid male fanservice. Since I never got my Elidibus!Zenos x Elezen!Zenos naked battle. *cries*

Garuda has feathers covering her body, Echidna is half insect, Shiva would freeze your lips like a metal pole if you kissed her, Scathach has black eyes. All somewhat petty but so is 'oh he does not have lips so he can't be pretty, oh he has talons so he can't be pretty, oh his skin is rock coloured he can't be attractive'- half the female bosses have talons or horns or are part animal. There's a selection of near naked women, of fully clothed women, of near naked men, of fully clothed men- in general, they're all attractive because that's generally the style of SE- they make very attractive females and males, with the occassional Vauthry, FFIX's queen, or cuchulainn thrown in. If the addition of talons, feathers, fangs, horns, demonic eyes, etc... makes a male not look male to you, but does nothing to change a female's beauty I think you're creating a scenario in which SE could never win.

Omega, Kefka, Estinian, Gaius, Alphinaud, Thancred- between the highly muscular eikons and many of the other males you have a pretty wide variety of male body types- so you have naked men, well dressed men, you have muscular men, you have pretty men, you have dashing rogues. The majority of the men are good looking in this game, whether they're the classical muscular version of handsome or the more anime style pretty version. Do they meet your standard of beauty? No idea, and SE can't know that either- what they can do is provide variety, which they do.



Now I take from your judgmental snippets at the end of your posts you keep throwing my way that you're not actually looking for a discussion but an excuse to insult me. If that's seriously what you're looking for- a chance to judge what others find attractive, that's kind of sad but by all means go for it.

I mean, you do you. I'm not really here to insult what you find attractive, just genuinely baffled that you would put "has feathers covering her body" and "has no lips at all" into the same category of attractiveness. There is really, really a solid difference between "has black-colored eyes" and "has no eyeballs," and I don't think I'm being crazy for suggesting that " Ifrit is sexy" would not be the average person's opinion.

You also keep bringing up people who are not bosses or were not intended as fanservice during their boss fights as examples of attractive male bosses--Alphinaud is not a boss in this game, Estinien is 90% dragon and 100% covered when we fight him, and Gaius doesn't take off his helmet at all until he's no longer a boss; we had no idea what he looked like under the armor for all of ARR and his armor is not meant to be fanservice. You're comparing apples to oranges and acting like people are being unreasonable for refusing to recognize oranges as examples of apples...
