(the AC boost comes from the distraction!) Alternative models would be the best way to go.

But for the love of Bhaal


1. Don't make them mandatory by making the best armor in the game a something that makes the PC look ridiculous

2. Please, please don't include DOS2 endgame headdresses. Looking like a Brazilian Carnival at the end DOS2 was fun in a game that didn't take itself seriously but if *spoiler character* runs around in bikini and ersatz fruitbowl on her head this will break my immersion.

So far BG3 has gotten the tone right and they should keep to that. Serious with some comic relief. More Star Wars than Guardians of the Galaxy. Keep to that tone.


Yes, I couldn’t have said it better myself. I don’t mind if others like this kind of thing (variety is good!). But I really don’t want to equip stuff like this on my characters so please don’t make the best armour exclusively skimpy stuff.

More armour appearance variety in general would be nice, especially with starting gear. I’m currently playing as a cleric and as soon as I recruited Shadowheart I swapped armour with her then immediately sent her to be a benchwarmer in the generic chain set my character was given to start. I’m sure she disapproved.

Already seen it.
Look at the first video, around time stamp 9:40.

Men and Women can wear the same exact piece of armor and function.
You don't need to specifically design something just for women.

yes , even tho the armor were made for men , a women could potentially fit it there, but only a handful of woman fought in battle,

but no such thing as a armor for woman was made , armor were made for soldier, male or woman, but if you were to ask a blacksmith in the 14th century to craft 1000 armor exclusively for woman and as protective, he would have surely made some adjustment, base on a women body. but it never happen.

The idea of limiting sexuality in games just seems crazy to me. If you can't turn a world of fantasy and fiction to have some kind of freedom, where can you? What is wrong with playing a sexy looking powerful female warrior?
With a magical sexy chain mail + 3 that protect her body better then a NORMAL chain mail cuz its magical ?
if dnd was a realistic table top game, it would not be where it is right now.
people dont want real... they want fantasy.
if you want real, dnd if not for you.

I do find it funny though that people say "It's an adult game, we want women in plate bikinis."

I don't associate gratuitous T&A with being an adult. I associate it with being a teenager. Not just because of the thirst, but also because there's a general idea among teens that somehow adding nudity and ultraviolence makes things somehow "grown up."

I tend to think that an "adult game" would have frank nudity, but also wouldn't treat female characters as eye candy, instead recognizing them as (fictional) independent beings with their own feelings and agency.

As I've already said in dataminning thread (and been accused of puritanism which is certainly not a tag I identify with) I'm all in for sexy (I think Lae'Zal's armor is a good example) while keeping it at least somewhat classy or (since I've learned this expression means very different things to different people) somewhat covered.

Again I'd reference Witcher 3 (especially Yen - I love in-game Yen) as a good example of that or even WOW tier sets (also AC Odyssey wasn't bad in this regard).

Sure it would be best if we could have both to keep everyone happy, however that wouldn't be so easy to implement and I think the development team's energy and time would be better spent in many other places. Also that's probably not the art direction they're going for.There are already at least 2 naked mods on Nexus so I'm pretty sure people like OP will find attire more appropriate to their tastes there, than what Larian could ever provide them with.

Also those first two images OP graced us with?! As a real life female archer please let me tell you - a nipple getting in a way of bowstring is an EXTREMELY bad idea (cannot overstate this).


So no "WE" are certainly not asking for anything akin to what OP is suggesting, However decollete, leather corsets, overknee boots, some sidecuts etc - yes please

Evit_it_self. I think the reason to our objections is that we are quite tired of seeing sexiness mixed into every single fantasy game made. You said it yourself, in those games where it's not implemented enough to some players degree, modders will do it.

I can only speak for myself and my opinions but I feel we're soon in to 2021. Isn't it time to let go of the "Sex sells" approach? I can't understand why it's so important still for some players that sex and oversexualization is present in every rpg they play. I mean, the majority of BG1 and BG2 fans should be around 30+ now

That's why somethings, like nudity or armor showing skin, is left to modders and not taking resources away from the development. In my opinion smile

One thing to ask is why a woman would choose to wear a sexy outfit into battle. I mean, not every woman IRL wears revealing clothing, and even those that do do not wear revealing clothing all the time. So if this were done, I'd like it to be built into the characters somehow.

So for example, maybe it's a female warrior who likes using the distraction/arousal of male combatants to her advantage in combat? Maybe they're a rogue who uses their body as a means of persuasion to hang guys out high and dry? Maybe they're an icy mage who dresses scantily because they like the attention - but also love to crush the ego of men who dare to make a pass at her?

What I wouldn't want to see is a character who seemed more or less totally oblivious to her own state of dress.

It's not in every game though. The Outer Worlds had zero romance content. There was none in Pillars of Eternity either.

You're right it's not real life but it still looks utterly ridiculous (what are you like 16?).

Look YOU can run around naked IRL or in-game (protected by magic ring of ROFL ofc) for all I care, just don't drag US into YOUR "demands".

Also now I'm really not sure whether or not you're just trolling.

this game is tagged with sexual content it goes way beyond simple nudity, I guess you did not saw all the sex scene especially the one with the drow. they will add more of that you know.


but let get back on the subject , Sexy armors and clothing. in a DnD game rated M

Sexy Armor (5e Equipment)https://www.dandwiki.com/wiki/Sexy_Armor_(5e_Equipment)

[Linked Image]

Armor (light), rare (requires attunement)

Sexy Armor is a tried and true staple of the Fantasy genre. Whether you are a hulking gladiator in nothing but a loincloth, greaves, and a stylized arm guard, or a sorceress in the "oh so classic" chainmail bikini. Regardless of the look, you are one sexy S.O.B. Conservative, dull, and modest are words that are never used when talking about your characters' appearance. If your armor takes the form of a gown, or robe, than it's descriptors will likely contain words like slinky, low cut, and high slit. If you're in a suit they will be more along the lines of slim cut, and curve hugging, with the V of your shirt coming to your navel to show off your muscles and chest hair. This magical armor thrives on the shear power of looking good!

While wearing this armor your AC is equal to 10 + your Dexterity modifier + your Charisma modifier. It is impossible for you to pass unnoticed through a crowd. You may cover up to regain your anonymity, but doing so negates the Charisma modifier from your AC.

While wearing Sexy Armor, as an action, you may change the appearance of the armor to suit your style, however, it must be sexy. Lastly, this armor can be worn by any spell caster, irregardless of whether they have proficiency in light armor or not.
