Dictating that women have to wear highly sexualized clothing that they would be uncomfortable wearing is simply not OK.
The high-heel habit can cause fibers in the calf muscle to shorten, and the Achilles tendon, which connects the calf muscle to the bone, to stiffen and become thicker. This will reduce your ability to run servely and this sound not like the typical capsulers to me, who are a bunch of paranoid assholes that care about efficiency. High Heels only is simply not fitting to the lore. |

Bio-mechanics. Changing this vie gen-tech or bio-implants would decrease run performance and why would any sane capsuler decrease his performance? The fact stays: Does not make sense to have no option on this. |

The fact stays: Does not make sense to have no option on this. Sorry, how can you possibly make that claim? In fact, one could assume that if the body is modified with gen-tech or bio-implants a side effect might be an increase in run performance. I can't claim this as fact because we simply don't know. You can't either but you seem to be trying to.
We are not talking here about complete reshaped humans, but about people who have the same bodyshapes as we have, therefore even with the possiblity of artificial improvements they are subject to the same mechanics as we are. I can claim this because I understand bio-mechanics, you can enhance the body in other regards to compensate, but changing your legs in a way high heels do is reducing your run performance. You may still be faster than someone without this improvements though.
Anyway, I do not care much about this ingame, it does not make sense, but does not affect my enjoyment of the game at all. Spending resources for a free update of shoes is bad. CQ are mostly bad.
Though new shoes on the nex store I would buy for my female alts, *hint* *hint* there is money ccp. And don-Št make me laugh at you with monocle prices for a single pair ;-)
