    I am just trying to imagine actually being annoyed and '' burning your eyes '' because of the sight of a butt lol.
    I really can't sympathize at all with how overly sensitive some people are with this, especially with lets be real here how rare it actually is in games especially nowadays.
    As much as some people complain about it in FFXIV, it's an extremely tiny minority of gear that shows any skin.
    Like is it really that big of a problem to being exposed to the human ( or mostly human ) body every once in a while?

    This extreme and tbh rather obnoxious puritanism is so silly to me especially with how normalized gratuitous violence is.
    I dunno why some people are incapable of simply ignoring things that don't appeal to them.
    It's sorta like people losing their minds about gay relationships, in the end of the day this kind of content is rare so I guess that if you're pandered to already in 95-99% of cases then when something doesn't it feels weird or something.
    But I think people can deal with it because the rest of us do with things we don't like.

    It kinda reminds me of the reaction from certain people to the Project Eve trailer from the last Sony event, it's like y'all got a crap ton of games announced that appeal to you but this one game that appeals to a different audience is apparently so awful and shouldn't exist?
    I don't understand this mindset at all it's really immature imo.
    Like mods are great and all but going as far as to break the ToS because a butt is upsetting, just really now?

    It's not like I'm calling for 2B pants to be deleted from the game, I just don't care for them and don't like when they take up space on my screen

    You're allowed to think that, but I think that a lot of things are '' an eyesore '' but don't go so far out of my way and break the ToS just to get rid of it.
    If you're gay then I honestly don't even understand why you'd react to it at all ( it's not only female characters either, lots of half-naked dudes ).
    Only case I could kinda understand it a little bit is if you're trans and suffer from dysmorphia I know that in some cases it can trigger it for some trans people.
    Or like if it's some content you have an actual phobia against.

    No one is saying that you can't dislike something, it's just about the reaction to it that goes beyond that which I don't understand nor sympathize with at all.
    And it's almost always this one thing too...
    And I do think that it's something people are conditioned into, I don't think that having negative reactions to seeing a human body is a natural thing I think it's something people are taught and that it's not a good thing to be taught.


    Maybe you're not asking for the deletion of it, but there clearly are people here who are asking for it and for there to not be anymore of it added in the future.
    I just think that a normal reaction should be to ignore it if you don't like it.

    I don't know what the big deal is, I can ignore certain things people wear but still think they're ugly or tasteless. If I saw your character in game then I probably wouldn't care about what you're wearing, but I'm still allowed to think that your choice of glam shows that you don't know how to co-ordinate an outfit, but you might be happy looking like a sun-bleached barbie doll from the discount bin in Goodwill and that's perfectly fine because that's what you like, and hey, if you don't agree with my tastes then that's fine too.

    Yeah no. You lost any argument you had there, bud, the moment you broke out insults ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
