Less shirtless men, please

[Halivel]

As a woman behind male character I disagree. Gotta do what I want with my character, and if I want him wandering around without a shirt - so be it.

Gonna hijack this post to ask if we can get booty shorts for men instead of boring-ass jeans we get every time?

This is something I cry for since forever at this point. Every time there's yet another one shorts release for females characters, I'm guessing in advance what type of ugly mess it will be for males this time.

Meanwhile I see male characters getting nice pants and wonder if I'm getting tiny shorts or another skirt-and-stockings combo.

True as well, pants from Copied Factory being one of the most prominent examples.

There is a bit of a restriction on that though.
Its usually limited to only 3 scenarios, rarely ever going outside of these 3.
(1) AF armor each expansion.
(2) Lv1 glamor items in each patch.
(3) Seasonal event armor.
So its reasonably spread out honestly. 4man dungeon gear, crafted leveling gear, tome gear, and savage gear, almost always dont have this issue.

Also, to those who care, the OP may be trolling, but there is a bit of an interesting issue at hand regarding the topic.
Most straight males tend to like roughly 75-80% of the same types of female features. (Almost always bodily features too)
Most Straight females do NOT like the same physical features on males. (They actually prefer non physical bodily features, such as styles of clothing. But whats popular/liked is always changing every few months)

The features they like, are constantly changing by a rather large degree over time, as large as years, to even just a few months. Guys dont go through these fads. If there is a difference, its usually a very small difference, that you could hardly notice.

But one of the most consistent features liked over the course of human history, has been Muscles. BUT, MOST women do NOT like muscles! To give a simplistic example, the number of women who like muscles on guys, will almost never exceed 40% of straight women. But any other category of features they like, wont exceed 40%. (The closest competitor to muscles is height)
So if you're comparing groups of 40%, 30%, 20%, 10%, etc, the largest group is the 40%, while this also means MOST women do NOT like the 40% (the remaining being 60%)

So the OP is correct that most women actually dont find shirtless men to be that inherently attractive. But its also one of the largest groups in which to cater towards, since there is no group with such a high percentage. (Which is why the OP is wrong in wanting to get rid of them, but they werent being serious anyways, since its just a troll post.)

Lastly is of course the vast amount of gay guys who are all about it lol. So there is a market for it, and theres no reason to remove a feature of the game which brings in more ppl than it pushes away.
