Guild Wars 2

sorry about bad english but this problem has troubled me for 1 and a half years.when i look at every heavy armor set in gw2 on human male body i can feel something wrong about it. so i looked up to some other armor type like medium and light on other classes or from some other games.i noticed these heavy armor set in gw2 is very much against aeshetics on human male body.
1.look at 1st pics of heavy from dungeon HOTW.the boots is too much slim compare to shoulder.when this character running you can see from behind that he has such small legs and feet.
2.the 2nd pic is from gemstore.still we can see ankle part is slim and upper part of body is not match to its feet.
3.3rd pic is from my ranger.now this armor set is perfect from every angle i can tell.good job on medium armor.
4.4th pic is from some other game.aesthetically speak this one is much better than the first heavy armor.
every second playing my guardian makes me feel i m controling a man with chicken leg.i didnt expect anet would change it 1year ago so i rerolled a ranger. but now with the anouncemant of HoT and revenant. i hope i could get some new heavy armor set.it dont need to be fantastic.just be normal plz.

It just isn’t heavy armor, many (perhaps all non cultural) armor sets (seem to me) were designed for either male or female human (and perhaps even only certain body types of the aforementioned choice gender) and then any other variation is just kind of rushed or not well thought out.

You’re kidding, right? The boots on heavy armor look so big, bulky and heavy both on male and female that if there were boots like that in real life they wouldn’t be able to walk they’d be so heavy.
It’s the shoulders that are too big.

On which races. Norn have boat feet so all are big for them. Charr get odd cutouts (some asura too) and Sylvari feet are even smaller than humans so…

Armor aesthetics rely heavily on what type of physique you have chosen for your character also.

…and certain physiques look better wearing certain types of armor.

Try using a total makeover kit (if you have one laying around) to preview the different body types available, and be amazed at how much it affects the size and shape of your different armor pieces.

It’s not that there’s a problem with proportions of human body in gw2. It’s that in That Other Game proportions were wildly exagerrated in some areas (the infamous massive shoulderpads…).
If anything, it’s the opposite of what you say – some armor sets have still too big/thick boots compared to the rest of the body.
