I thought that the game Warriors and King: Joan of Arc (imho completely underrated and mostly unknown pearl of an action rpg) managed to strike a good balance between "realism" and "visual appeal" regarding the fantasy picture of a medieval female warrior in plate armor :

It still doesn't fully comply with the recommendations provided by seemingly more professional armorers, quoted in this very thread here several times. The bust is too high, round and "feminine" I guess, but it still hopefully could be factored in to find a compromise satisfying both the community of players and Larian.

The option to switch off helmet graphics is a must too, of course.


Just a slight favor to conclude, as a potential user of DOS modding tools in the future :

I remember a not so distant time where unclothed character models would display but bare skin, and still remain politically correct in a widely acclaimed video game :
I would be fine with character models in DOS that once unclothed displayed a bikini (think Dragon Age Origins, or Neverwinter Nights 1).

I would equally be fine if character models couldn't be unclothed at all, or if they had but one unique outfit throughout the whole game, its stats changing, without any visual alterations (think Dragon Age 2, I believe).

Please just avoid the horrible Neverwinter Night's 2 mish mash, which had character models unclothing to a sort of pajama (swimsuit ? bikini?), with unremovable field worker gloves and boots. It is truly a *pita* to fix, and work with as modder.

Thank you for your consideration.

Glad to see that Larian is back to business, and really looking forwards to the game, and especially its toolset smile
