The revival of this thread was worth it just to read this line. Laughed way too much at this lol

Glad you enjoyed it. I meant it as more of a joke than anything serious.

Well, one thing led to another and an actual discussion was had. I'd call it success, though apparently unintentional.

There's a lot of people who are fine with the idea of a slight, tasteful bulge to reflect anatomy. The people who speak out against such things are a very vocal minority...and tend to be the sort in need of self reflection and acceptance to understand why basic anatomy unnerves them so much.

Overwatch didn't die out or suffer as a result of the inclusion of tasteful bulges on the male character models. Just make it optional and those who want it can toggle it on and those who don't can toggle it off. That's a solid enough compromise.

I agree completely.

I don't see it as sexual at all, it's part of the male body. A slider seems excessive but having it as it is now (literally ken doll) is also excessive in the other direction.

Butts for that matter. On some races the rear end is literally negative space that recedes in and it's awkward. We spend so much time looking at the back of our characters it's really a travesty.

Yoshida stated the reason in the recent interview when they asked why we cant have weight sliders. They dont want to have to go back and adjust 2000+ pieces of equipment.

Well, they could easily create new equipment to give the illusion of a bulge...

They also mentioned something about an item that would glamour body hair on a character but we've yet to see anything along those lines.

We've had people asking for the option to have real eyebrows for male highlanders since the days of ARR. We've had people asking for more facial hair options.

We don't need excuses at this point - we need action. We're not even getting many masculine looking hairstyles these days either - the majority are designed to be very feminine or androgynous.

I want to say that I am laughing at this but lets be realistic here. The immaturarity level of the game would sky rocket if a bulge slider was put in, would not be long before we get questionable screen shots being posted on the forum. Example a Wedding of a Roe and lala when their rising into the air...ya we all get were this is going. I dont know about anyone else but some of the things I have seen happening in Limsa would get far more wrong if a bulge was present..

You mean...they might actually have to upgrade and update the game to accommodate said updates? The HORROR. Welcome to the MMO scene, SE, where a game needs to be kept up to date.
