So, I still have the 5,500 AUR that was given for free by CCP following the release of the NEX store. Tonight I was bored, so decided to browse the store and see if there is anything I would like to spend it on. However, none of the "male" clothing really jumped out at me, but I did think the 'Structure" Skirt (camouflage) was rather appealing. To my dismay, I noticed it is female only.
Why aren't we allowed to wear whatever we want in New Eden? I, for one, think I would look positively striking in a skirt. Thoughts? |

Because your not good enough, or not mature enough, so you are gender limited. I will not be voting in the CSM election, so you need to go vote to make up for me. |

That is a bit of a weird one actually, having gender limited clothes is not very open minded.
Especially considering a huge amount of this game is guys playing girls.

Possibly just a technical body-model issue, nothing sexist here. |

It's a technical limitation, as male and female avatars are shaped differently, they'd have to redo the design of the skirt to fit a man.

Some clothes still have clipping issues with animations in character customiser, and in captains quarters. These are default clothes from when this whole thing was introduced. This does not really inspire confidence in the idea of unisex clothing.
That said, I do not really see why some items, such as "Quafe" T-shirts, cannot be a single item, that has a different model, depending on if it is being worn by a male or female character.
Other games have different models for the same item, e.g. in Skyrim, you can take a suit of plate armour (which has sculpted breasts on it), from a female character, and put it on a male character, and magically, the armour fits. And vice versa. Taking armour from a male character, put it on a female character, suddenly, it is hammered into shape.

Because having to re-render all clothing options to be unisex, so a handful of people can play drag, is a waste of time. |

The chothing has to fit the character model frame, animation and customization options. Designing cloth for one gender also limits the QA iteration that must be done, for any given item.
I'm also of the opinion that they should design for femal and male separately, since I believe that it will result in higher quality word hat really messes well with either gender, instead of unisex clothing that never really lets you express youself, since must look atleast decent on both models.
I go agree that they could use more variety, as well as more options for customization the character models themselves. For instace, the tatoo on my face would not be so promonent, and the chin tatto would be removed, or replaced with something else.
However, enough people expressed butt hurt over CCPs decisions to really do WiS right. If you didn't want to the monocle, don't buy it. Its pretty simple. But some people read way too much into it, and the marketing cheerlieadng email that was leaked did help. CCP got the wrong message that players don't want more customization and personalization options for thier characters. So much so that you can be sure that they will forever leave this area of the game undeveloped because players want spaceship they can't see behind their massive walls of texts and icons. I like big guns. I can not lie. You other suckas can't deny. When I warp in, with an itty bity sig, with an arty in your face, you get sprung. You want to pull out your debuffs, 'cause you want to loot my stuff...deep, in a worm with nary, an escape but you can't stop staring. 'Cause, Oh crap!, Baby's got Point! |
