New coliseum gear too lewd

[Zantetsuken]

The game is allowed to have a few sexy outfits you prudes.

I wonder if these people watch the olympics? There isn't an hour that goes by since the olympics have been on that I don't see a swimmer or a volleyball player or something doing what they do best, professional athletics. Oh wait! They're in incredibly skimpy outfits. Good lord. At a MAJOR INTERNATIONAL SPORTS EVENT?! Hide your kids, hide your wives! The obscenity is just insane!

Everyone knows that bikinis in Beach Volleyball at the Olympics just desperate pandering to attract TV viewing audiences. Just look what happens when the girls try to keep warm for games.

My point was that a few sexy outfits in FFXIV is fine -- if implemented in a relevant context. (I'd prefer they were restricted to NPCs though, Any time you introduce something to the players in an MMO, multiply it's effect by 2000x).

Think of it like Cayenne pepper... a dash in the right dish makes things spicy and interesting, a cup of it added to everything is revolting.


Sidenote: Funny thing. We are all regularly bombarded with instructions to eat healthier, don't smoke, buckle-up, recycle, exercise, don't be judgmental, give blood, stop eating meat, don't bully, reduce our carbon footprint, don't text while driving, hate the rich/banks/oil companies, eat organic, celebrate diversity, support public eduction via higher taxation, etc.

Whenever this happens, people generally listen and agree (or not) and then peaceably go about their business.

However, if you were to suggest that dressing/acting modestly might be a good thing as well, most of those same people will become indigent to the point of rage at the idea.

Ever wonder why?
