No game ever has really simulated armor well. Not only its too complicated, its also too binary for gameplay purposes.
D&D and D&D based game are just extra bad in that regard as they tend to overvalue dodge and Dex in general (which got worse in newer edition with the introduction of Dex only weapons) while only giving penalties to heavy armor but no advantage.
