    Since the armor isn't made of Ex'spandex, and they haven't invented yoga pants in game yet - the armour has to be big so you can move and breathe inside of it.

    I posted one on imgur to link here - I got a buncha downvotes.

    It upset me so much I had to crawl under the porch and hide for the rest of the day.

    It doesn't seem like it's only my character, I have another, skinnier character so I'll test it on that

    Actually, armor was custom fitted to the wearer's body (if he could afford it), it wasn't slim or anything.

    Armor, in fact, should not be wider than the wearer's body, because it would limit movement, not allow for easier breathing (you don't breathe through your chest) and letting your body move freely inside an armor intentionally wider than your proportions is not a good idea.

    I'm not looking for skintight armor, I am looking for a fitted armor. Cov. breastplate works nicely with this idea.

    AD one isn't really fitted to a body. It's just wide.

    Again,I was hoping for a fitted look, not a slim look, AD just doesn't have it.


    a bit of a "belly" in the middle of the armor is fine.

    So it doesn't mean that slimmer armor is not protective. Overly bulky armor can be dangerous to wear though, So realism does not belong here. Besides, I'm not gonna complain too much. I'm just not gonna use this armor and that's it.

    Well, let's be honest, you ARE kinda chunky...

    DC breastplate made a lot better

    Here's him with and without the new breastplate: http://imgur.com/a/ArsYp

    He's a bit wide, but not exactly fat

    I guess ZOS devs are fascist factionist pigs.

    HEY HEY HEY, It's not my fault that I suck at creating characters, alright? don't shame me pls

    plus creating a good looking male Nord is nearly impossible because I'm lazy as ***, I just wanted to play
