    This is such a hard thing to balance though :/ What set should we make look sexy and what set should we make look badass, and then, as always, who should we prioritise? Males or females? Ugh

    It's not that hard and Aion already do that with most of their armor (however in their culture most of the time females are going to look femenine and males masculine, even if both are wearing "sexy armor"), was the point of my example. TERA is the game that really do it wrong:



    Anyway I understand that some player want their females to look masculine and their males to look femenine.

    Erm, if you're designing an armor to be equally sexy or equally badass... you're not prioritizing one gender over the other.

    TERA's been the one to get the closest to right, IMO, though they could have done for a bit more badass in some of the female designs. The equality of castanic armor choices was perfection, however.

    TERA's castanic armour sets were pretty awesome. But Castanic armour sets were they way they were because of lore reasons. And also because Castanics were ripped. I would hate to see similar amour sets in FF because they won't give us muscle sliders for half the guys, particularly the noodles. If I could make my Elezen actually have abs, I would be all for it.

    Anyway, my point was that both males and females should have sets that make them look sexy (revealing, shape-flattering, tailored), badass (heavy plate etc), and neutral (but that we already have to some extent). And all that will depend on the gender, should they want to go for more sexy female outfits while forgetting the males (deja vu).

    I was citing castanics in particular. :P The others were a bit less equal opportunity.
