They're just as much the hero as you are. What you're saying is that there are appropriate things to wear and not when saving the world. It really does kind of all feed into our societal norms of who is acceptable to be the hero. The Roe in the 2B pants doesn't match your idea of what a "hero" looks like. Why not? That's what I want to know.
Maybe because a lot of people are fed up with male characters in women's clothes? If you want to be a woman, then play one! But no, then we are no longer that one special snowflake among all the others.
The LBGTQ community constantly demands tolerance, but then has zero tolerance towards everyone else. We are supposed to accept you and in return you insult women by calling them "cis".
If you want tolerance, then start with yourselves. I want to have the choice of what I see in my game and as soon as a suggestion is made, the people from the LBGTQ community start screaming the loudest again.
As I said, wear whatever you want, but let me decide whether I want to see it or not. And the job-specific equipment is sufficient to hide unwanted glamour. It's not about skimpy clothing, it's about aesthetics and immersion.
I want to experience the story of the game and not see men to my left and right wearing B2 boots, thongs and some animal head (usually a frog or chicken) in bright colors.
I also don't want to see half-naked women who have never looked at themselves in a mirror before charging at humanity.
