we women would go into battle in high heals and a teddy. why not the men too what is good for the goose is good for the gander too .
I’m all for skimpier male armour options but my guys would definitely look like gooses if they had to wear that!
I do not know I got guy toons in some skimpy armor I found and even dyed them hot pink and they look great .
when i see this i think it is sad for that tool being used in that way . and people ruining the chance of being ripped off . shame anet will not fix this
you need a weapons crafter for the axe haft recipes . so you will need to max out crating in all lines and iam doing this right now with 4 toon,s and almost to ascended now myself
at lest it is a update and fix better then not having it sigh
Female player here who wouldn’t mind a few more revealing armors for her guy toons. Why not? Not in to ERP, never have been…but love the hell out of fashion wars!
Can see it now, “Flaming Banana Hammock Of Doooom!” The first in the Lord Farren Jungle line of adventure ware. Heck with a huuuge fire aura it is sure to be a big hit …ANet take note :P
here here very well said and fashion wars and the Flaming Banana Hammock Of Doooom and all with Lord Farren Jungle now that would be making the game even more fun to play !!!
Crimson, my comment of erp’ing comes from the many posts made on this subject in the other threads wanting revealing armour. It is not so much the armour in and of itself, but the reason many want it (not all). It was only my opinion, I respect others opinion and was naive enough to expect the same. For my part I dont care if they add it or not really, I only care that they add my bunny ears!
Don’t mean to sound snarky, but would you be able to quote/link posts that suggest that players want skimpy armour sets just for ERP?
I’ve done a quick google, and have drawn a blank. I know there have been plenty of similar threads to this one, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen a post that suggested that somebody wanted the armour so they could ERP more easily.
The majority of responses want it for variety’s sake, or to match what’s available for female humanoids.
EDIT: Lol Flesh, you took the words right out of my mouth!
and they were all drooly and sticky too.
And no, I’m not going to erp with you about it.
ok so this is why i do not let my pets see me playing this . my cat is the worst one for the drooling can not understand why :P
If it’s weird to describe avatars in a video game as beefcake, then isn’t it equally as weird to say that what they are wearing will cause erp?
yeah really that is so very true and well said flesh
So they should say goodbye to their 12 PEGI rating so people can erp. Not likely, though I am surprised they have 12 to begin with considering how inappropriate some of the female attire is. If half naked erp’ing is your thing, more power to you, there are plenty of games that cater to that. Stop trying to make this one of those games.
for some one trying to make the claim of being a Mistress Savant of the Asuran Dominion. as you got in your profile . statements like this sure prove you wrong . not only that but . it is clear you do not under stand we are talking about male armor here .there is not one thing at all with seeing more beef cakes armor !!! iam all for it and know there is a few other women who are too!!!
Oh please explain the correlation between the statement and my signature, curious minds want to know. It is also a tad weird to describe avatars in a video game as beefcakes btw.
i would but i see in this case it would be a lost cause and not able to get concepts easy . when it comes to these thing,s it is just not worth the time in my book but maybe others can help you out with that.
Congratulations to Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns!
Guild Wars 2 was also one of the runners-up for the same site’s 2015 Best MMO to eventual winner The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited.
very shocking they got this no matter what stranded they used it is still shocking they even got this at all

So, you’re saying if women show some skin it’s 12 PEGI but if men show some skin it’s half naked Erp time and goodbye to the rating?
When I see things like this, it makes me think that some people are actually afraid of seeing a guy wearing something that flashes some skin, like they are threatened by it or something.
I did say I was surprised they had 12 rating with some of the female outfits. Read the entire comment. I am not threatened by anything, I just don’t think a game like this is the proper place for things like this.
I’m going by your response to the thread’s suggestion of men showing skin where you say

If the thread is about men and skin, then those comments should also be about men and skin.
Edit: and what is it about men showing some skin that makes this game “not the proper place for things like this.” That comment makes male skin sound ‘dirty’ or something, if showing some isn’t proper in a game like this.
very good points here. and your right on this fully

agreed and i think that is very true for some if not most

Dispite a lot of female armous showing a lot of flesh, there is also a lot of bad ones too, medeim armor for example has the most horrible looking armours in the game. My thief is female and I do use full t3 set, I changed the top to ascended skin as I have both tops. It’s not because I stare at it all day, there is just nothing else that looks any good on mediem armoured people.
I have made possibly 3 or 4 nice looking combos out of the whole mediem wardrobe collection and even then, they could make better skins. (That new outfit looks awesome, bandit)
but we are talking about male armor and not female armor . you do get that right????

If they haven’t lost the rating with the female armors, they won’t lose it with a little bare male chest. Western society shuns boobs more than it does the male torso. I mean, look at all the shirtless dudes in summer
very well said and agree with you fully

+1 for this. I wanna mog as He-Man.
make that +9 i wanna see mog as He-Man too!!
I’ve been reviewing this topic over the last couple days, just busy with work and stuff. I like where it’s gone. To be honest, when I started the topic, I wanted to make a somewhat humorous post about a topic that I’d really like to see looked at.
The end game of Guild Wars 2 is largely, if not almost entirely, aesthetic. I am not particularly unhappy with the armor sets that we have currently, but I would like to see a lot more variety and attention given to male armor sets. It seems that the females of Tyria have much more varied armor skins whereas the males (as has been discussed to exhaustion on the forums) are a lot less fortunate in their wardrobe choices. For example, all medium armor sets are basically trenchcoats.
Ideally, I would like to see more skimpy armor too, but really, I just want more armor variety for male characters period.
same here too i loved to have more skimpy male armor give us more beef cakes !!:)
They’re actually hellbent on REDUCING “visual noise” at the moment…
you mean they are very super kitten hellbent on REDUCING "visual noise another big mistake by this company . but maybe they will see the light but yet i will not hold my kitten breath on it
when it comes to WoW i will say the most bad part about it is paying to play it. but at lest you know you will have the game updated with out any questions at all. but as for the rest of it. yes it has lots of skills and so forth and you can move the ui stuff around if i remember it right . and it has quests which do beat the hearts quests . and i will say with wow you got no server lag and so forth . but yet gw2 has its good points but as of late it has gotten more bad points then the good ones . i do hope that changes but yet waiting 3 mo,s for updates is a major kitten in my book . so it is a give and take both ways . and you can all talk about both points of both games . but yet i got to say if things in gw2 does not get better . lets just say from what i see right now ahh if no changes happen here . other then people leaving the game well then i think maybe anet will git the idea or shut it down like they did city of heros . but i have seen a lot of people leaving . and not coming back but yet still got to hold out hope for this game . unless the next update goes even more kitten bad
i have to say use the forge and get your crafting and mj find lvls up and save the money from buying it to use for crafting instead
looking this topic over now . i notice there is a few guys that do not like this idea .but i also noticed there are a small few ladys who are in the same boat as these guys . but yet i also noticed there is maybe 2 maybe but one really honest lady in this topic that posted as well as a few honest guys too. but yet have to wounder why the women in this game are holding back on there thoughts and ideas on this topic . not only that but why do some make topics like this . with one post only and then run off into the night to let the topic go where ever . with out seeing it threw makes one wounder . any ways be nice to hear from a few other ladys on this topic . and guys too for it or not it is a topic worth talking about
this could be the same irl though. so many woman ware such low neck lined tops, pretty much nothing on their backs, so even have holes as a patten all over their dress’s yet the guy’s look more casual, but then they all look the same as far as fashion goes.
it could be and is that way irl and yes when it comes to guys fashion and clothes very boring and dull . and yes women`s fashion is so much more better and more comfy too
But if it followed RL you wouldn’t even have all your clothing on when you went into a fight. It’s like an unofficial law among males that the first thing you do before pummeling someone is remove your shirt. Or official in sports like boxing and etc. ;o
Shirts are superfluous cloth in those instances. Even shorts are but those are only worn for cultural reasons. Only practical clothing in the ring are shoes and gloves.
Yeah men’s fashion IRL especially business and formal is very dull. Black suit and tie for formal and only a “choice” of navy and gray at offices. At least T-shirts can still be cool whereas if a guy wore a Deadpool tie at his work it’d probably get him laughed at and in trouble for violating a dress code
If it isn’t navy or burgundy it probably isn’t allowed.
agreed but be nice to see the tie and maybe even worth the hassel to wear it to work maybe ?? at lest they could not say he was dull and boring tho :P

i guess and not sure why guys do that. but they do smh on that one. but far as sports goes give me golf and baseball the other stuff i will pass
While I do want more revealing armor for males, and I want Lord Faren’s jungle look as an Outfit, more revealing doesn’t need to be nearly naked.
For a good example for medium armor, look at Final Fantasy VII’s Sepheiroth. Only the upper chest is exposed, and even that has two leather straps crossing over it. And yet, that little bit of exposed skin is enough to make a huge difference in how the armor looks.
The idea that “Less is More” can apply here twice. Yes, people are asking for less armor, but sometimes it’s about what you take away and how, not just how much. Take the rawhide chest armor, for example. Remove the undershirt, and shorten the coat a bit, and you have more of a padded vest with some of the chest exposed. It would feel like a bigger difference, though. I think this is why I see so many male characters running around in armor that uncovers one or both of the arms.
good points there but yet Lord Faren’s jungle look as an Outfit i would buy it too . and not only that but ahh a little male eye candy is nice .
If they were to add something like this then that’s fine. I personally won’t use those armor sets. Live and let live yo.
good way to be wish more was like this . but i got to admit a little eye candy is nice too when it comes to males in the game
I have five male sylvari. I’d really like to be able to see some of their glow and body patterns, ugh.
agreed think they are the most color full ones in the whole game . compared to other male toon,s in this game

ok RUDE! joking. i am male irl, and may be its because of my gender but i like the male vlothing far better, looks far more stylish and causal, a lot of womans clothing are revealing for attention from the paparazzi.
i think it is not rude . just being honest is more like it . and that is good and ok your male . and i have not seen that at all with male clothing . as i tend to find it boring and very dull . but thats me. and you are you . and yes but yet women do have clothes that make them look great . better then males and this i think is why the topic was made in the first place maybe. and hey why not give males more revealing and colorful clothes too. and there is noting wrong with a little more skin on guys at all.
my norn probably still has fish scales stuck in his leather pantaloons from the karka event that are festering.
Give me my man skirt so i can breeze it out.. jeebus. It probably stank like the great jungle wurm down dar
i bet and that is a not so good smell . and also too there is a male pit fighter skirt . and maybe a couple of others i think i found while doing the hearts quests .

On a related note, while I don’t have any particular issues with all the skimpy female armour, personal choice and all that, I’d really love to see more options that don’t show huge amounts of skin. There are some, but not enough, which is one reason why I like playing Asuras, their armour looks essentially the same on both male and female characters.
while that is all fine and good and i would agree with you if we was talking about female armor . but we are not we are talking about getting this for male armor
if they only put my boots of Superior power in the game . with these stats 300% power 225% Vitality 175% Condition Damage!! and they are so very comfy to walk in all day and night long too. now if only anet would do this sigh
If it’s sauce for the goose, then it’s sauce for the gander. ^^
i love it your too much flesh !!! that just makes my whole day now
but maybe they and you too might like my Superior boots of power much more better
Yes, we need more of these. Why do straight men get to have all the fun?
too funny thanks for that. and a few straight guy friends of mine there wifes as the same question too :P

sandbox games are ok but i do not see it working well for gw2 . giving how lets say other things in this game have not worked out so well . but yet if it was done right and did not need a lot of stuff to make happen by a player in a game . then it could work well and maybe even heaven for bid add more fun to the game even
They already added a sandbox as Guild Hallz so anythings possible. Wish it focused less on being a huge goldsink though.
that could be iam not sure on these things at all as i have got not one thing to do with guilds at all . nor do i care to .
and i have read that they have become a gold sink tho . and do not find it surprising at all on that

too funny . and they make this happen in game way tooo even more funny
theres an outfit thats more revealing on male then female. this is my mesmer.
looks very nice and well done too
Please no. Not in this game What an awful idea. Maybe The Sims or Second Life is what you want to try out.
What? You’re afraid of the guys getting treated the same as the gals when it comes to armor design?
yup yes they are flesh that is too scary for them to handle . lets say some can break them emotional/mental barriers more easy then others can . like i got a few guy friends that look better in a dress and heels and some of them even make money doing so too. needless to say tho some women find out they get very jealous for some reason not sure why but they do .
I find it very interesting that those who don’t want male skimpy are either:
Afraid of men showing equal amounts of skin and want only women to be skimpy (double standard)
OR
They never like the fact that in games (and in real life too), people can wear what they want, and everywhere they go they want to close their eyes because they disagree with what others are wearing. Newsflash – the world doesn’t revolve around your fashion tastes and people can wear what they want – SHOCKER.
fyi your so very right on this and so very well said
some times I find it when doing world completion run more easy and fun with map chat off . doing that makes it more easy even when I come across events and keep going :P
There is something wrong when people want overt sexuality in video game characters.
you should play the grand theft auto games . them are even more fun
then I put him in lipstick with pink and that turned out more better to a point but yet the males well they do lack in skimpy out fits sadly to say .
now for ele tho well they do not have so many cute choices with male . but needless to say I was able to make him look some what cute in this out fit .
this now is my rev I got him into a cute out fit and in nice shade of pink changed it so the front view now shows up
(edited by ham.8209)
there is not one thing wrong with people being them self’s and having good harmless fun even if it is in a video game .
The district system was a great one. You could see at a glance how many map copies there were and what your map copy number was. You could select the one you wanted and attempt to join it. You could select the ones at the top of the list for maximum number of people or the bottom of the list for the fewest people.
Here is a picture to show what the district panel looked like. The top shows the person is in district one and that there are 6 other districts in the NA maps. (Guild Wars 1 didn’t have a separate EU and NA like this game does and you could jump to the EU districts from that panel).
this is one of the things i loved in a way about that game shame they never thought to put it in this one sigh
i saw them in mine too yesterday and was shocked to even seee them there.
why shocked? :o
well the wally marts in my town carrys more xbox and ps4 games then they do pc games . and there was even 10 whole copy,s there too .
so you mean you were surprised ?
shocked sounds so negative as if you didnt like seeing those games being sold
ahh ok i can see how you would get that and think of it like that . but where i live we are just lucky to have a game stop and wally mart in the same town . with out having to travel a 100 miles round trip to just buy it. and no honestly iam very happy they are being sold . but like i said before we got the game stop we used to have to travel a 100 miles if not more to get the game we wanted to play online.
Scallywag and Gladiator are skimpy but “heavy” armor. Some item mall armor sets are skimpy too.
not really and honestly they are not skimpy enough thank you very much
