Looking for sexy female outfits to craft

I agree, but for different reasons. I am very tired of people wanting to ruin fantasy with childish chainmail bikinis.

Again, we're slinging spells and half of us are damned cats... just stop. Get the real life logic out of here... It doesn't have a place in a fantasy game.

Again, you don't understand how fiction works. Just stop. Get out of here.

Elder Scrolls, like every other fantasy concept EVER- has traditionally had attractive males AND females.

Not in the past decade, and not in this incarnation, either.

The idea that we exist in the same world is irrelevant. It's like saying you don't like interracial couples, so they shouldn't be allowed to walk through the mall. Options can be in game, and you can choose to go a different way.

Yeah, saying that chainmail bikinis shouldn't exist (or, if they do, shouldn't offer full armor) in one video game where they already don't is the same thing as saying interracial couples shouldn't be allowed to walk through the mall. You got me with that one.

I see alot of extremely buff male characters so it stands to reason that men often want to feel heroic and sexy too.

The difference is that it makes sense for someone who is always fighting Daedra and bandits to be buff, but it makes no sense for you to be able to run around in a bikini with overcharged armor.

Ah come on,

No wonder all you males got so upset when my Witch Elf in her string bikini killed your Ironbreaker

I have no idea how this is in any way a response to my post.

Witch Elf


Ironbreaker


And thats what my statement had to do with yours Mr maverick

I totally agree with this , people need to learn to keep their immersion outisde others game.

This is an ES game , end of story.

People need to realise MMOs are designed for the taste of tens of different language, country, religion, culture, etc. People need to stop being against an idea just because they don't like it. MMOs must have options for every kind of people. Just because some conservative people trying to hide their opinions under immersion or protection, the game shouldn't be designed such way.

If you don't like a skimpy armor, simply do NOT wear it, but you have no rights to say to anyone do NOT wear it. We pay same amount and i am really glad have different taste from these conservative people.

I like to play a character looks sexy, either male or female. An option for different tastes always better than lack of art style.

P.S: Also don't exaggerate people's demands, we don't ask for armor looking like hookers or some other asian *** MMOs, we ask some option in armor at higher levels gives some sex appeal.

While I prefer my characters in full armor (some of the armors are really cool looking) I don't really care what other players are wearing; they can run around buck naked for all I care.

It's a free world, deal with it.

in a world where you can cast semi transparent shields around you, you shouldn't need to cover yourself in a nun outfit....let those puppys breath!

I like being fully covered, I don't want to be forced to wear ineffective, immersion breaking armor because you want to run around looking like you belong in a strip club

Spells or not, that magical war isn't protecting 100% against arrow, or a the force of a greatsword, just because you want to take arrow directly to the chest or midriff doesn't mean I do.

pretty sure that's not the point of OP's post.. S/HE wants to wear the armor; there are more then enough choices of armor that are suited for your modesty

And adding skimpy gear to loot tables will force me to use it or gimp myself if it's an upgrade which makes no sense. This should've been a poll, no skimpy armor, there's more than enough games out there to accommodate your 'style' tastes.
Only way I'd be okay with this if 1. It was only craftable and never as a drop
2. It only applied to light and medium armor.

Honestly I am sick of my characters looking like some wierd fantasy *** actors, as a female myself I really do prefer my characters to look like they can take an arrow or two rather than Princess Leia in her slave costume (many men's wet dream I know but not something you are going to charge into war wearing unless your sole intention is distract your enemy)!

Besides it is more than possible to look sexy without showing excessive skin, and unless it's Zenimax's intention to create player housing with associated cyber red light district then I really think it's refreshing to finally play a game where I actually look like combat ready soldier rather than a candy coloured stripper with metal underpants.

But I suppose it's all about opinions and options if looking "sexy" in a game is peoples prerogative. As long as I can still maintain some realism.

Why can't we have both?

I don't see the problem - you want to get all suited up, fine. Go right ahead - but your decisions for your characters shouldn't affect mine.

I think you skipped the last sentence of my post, but it's okay, selective reading is the best way to validate an argument.

Anyway, the whole argument about options is moot, as there are already options for showing more skin, typically in the form of costumes. For example at vr 6 you get:



VR2:



Not sure if people want to show more skin than that, if so then guild wars 2 is still free to play!

Well first of all OP specificaly asked for light armor (robes) furthermore I've never found a piece of armor so much better than my current one that not wearing it would feel like 'gimping' myself; I've opted not to wear pieces of armor because of how they look.

aside from that I don't see a problem with making the styles only craftable

Why does heavy armor exist in the world if it's not effective? Who would wear it if you can just use a magical spell to get all of the same benefits? And yet, NPCs wear heavy armor.

Indeed! I propose we ban armor altogether

.. except for the people who.. you know can't afford the expensive magic spells / armor or don't have a magical inclination... very easy to explain you know?

Well based on another topic just recently it would seem like armor is not actually helping at all so we might as well run naked (however that topic findings are still under testing I think)

What a world you must live in... where everything is either black or white and no gray can exist. Why do you cleavage hating weirdo's always believe that we HAVE to have bikini's... It couldn't possibly be just some pretty armor that may show that the person wearing it is female? Anyway, you're incapable of this debate. Bring on the parka's, whatever... just another bad design decision that will ultimately end badly.

ROFL, ESO is going to die because it doesn't have skimpy armor.

Skimpy armor should have 0 armor rating. Otherwise its immersion breaking.

Armor is magical thats why it works better with more skin showing.
For all those saying its immersion breaking you have zero imagination what so ever. With all the magic stuff we have in this game there is no reason why the armor types can't be magical in how it offers protection.

Agreed. A lot of the skyrim mods were over the top. And I am sure some men will like that. You have people with the weirdest fetishes.

Well, the Argonian and Bosmer robes show some skin, but I'm not sure "sexy" is the right word. I'm no lore expert, but I'm not sure the females of a time where your villages and cities are constantly under attack by demons, vampires, and werewolves really concerned themselves with such things... out in public anyway.

Maybe you could um... keep it in your pants while playing this particular game? Just a suggestion.

You seem to miss the point a bit. You speak of females of a time. I am pretty sure that if we look at that timeline then I doubt women would even be adventuring at all. But instead we play a game where not everything has to be realistic. When you play a game you would like to have a choice of what you look at.

You will spend a lot of time looking at that character and so choice here is important. Instead of a choice most of the clothing in ESO is just ugly.
And before you go off about what I keep in my pants I shall tell you that as a male I have a female character normally proportioned wearing primal because I like that look.

Interesting discussion. The internet is full of sexy pictures of ladies if you want to look at that stuff. There is a certain kind of weird fetishism for dressing your female toons in sexy outfits. Personally, I want my girl characters to be protected so I armor em up as much as I can. I love them that much!

Interesting answer. Congratulation for getting the choice YOU want.
Other may not have the choice they want and thus they post about it. Then you send them off to go seek pictures elsewhere.

That is like you telling me you would like a red car. Then me giving you a blue car and telling you that you can see red cars elsewhere.

You have literally every other RPG on the market. Let us have one game series where iron thongs don't offer the best armor.

For robe use daedric/khajiit/dark elf

I the case of daedric you should mix a heavy armor chest and glove with full light set

Some of the opinions on the matter are new to me, but I got the point just fine.

I think it's you that has missed my point. In this ESO universe, there are female characters adventuring along with the male characters; there's no need to look at this "timeline" you're referring to in order to explore that notion other than what you're seeing on your screen while logged in. My comment, while admitting to not being a lore expert, was identifying that the absence of that type of clothing may be because there's likely no necessity for skimpy clothing on adventurers. It was an observation based on what's currently in the game more than anything. I haven't seen many "sexy" outfits, and I made a comment saying why that might be. That's all. *points above* There is an argument going on over there though if you're feeling froggy.

Warhammer, it could had been such a great game if they actually released a stable client *sigh* I really liked it a lot

Ya, there were mods for various body parts. Big butt´s, sixpacks, eyes (I actually used the eye mod), but I also read about glamour girls so all the NPC´s looked like from a strip club *laughs* oh well ^^

I feel like some people don't understand that fantasy worlds have their own reality, their own limits and their own rules.
There are some things that happen in a certain fantasy world, there are some other things that do not.

In the universe of The Elder Scrolls, there are just a few skimpy outfits, and they usually have a low armor value. In a Elder Scrolls MMO, it makes sense to have the skimpy armor being low level sets, like the low level light bosmer set.

There is a established lore. There are rules and limits, even to magic. Not every MMO out there has such a rich and solid lore. Some other MMOs go and add every kind of hilarious features that do not necessarily fit the world just for the amusement of their player base. This is not a bad thing, but it is just not the kind of MMO ESO is.

But like I said before (not sure if I said it here or in another thread about the same thing), if it FITS THE LORE and it is equally skimpy for both MALE and FEMALE characters, I'm fine with it.

I'd like a few more bare chest models for the men and maybe some kilts or short skirts, for either.

Young people and hormones, they cant help it.

But, no once guys get older they tend to chill out and figure out whats really important.

Indeed, like a well cooked dinner.
