Don't want to pile on but these skimp outfits are like. . .yikes. Underboob, really?

Everything else does look good though. Glad I didn't burn my WiiU on that 30% trade-in that GS was doing.

EDIT: Oh boy. After the HitBox streamer finds the "underboob" armor, he lets out a joyous "Thank you NINTENDO!" and fiddles with taking an upclose "classy" screenshot.

That shit just killed my interest in the game. I have fond memories of Xenoblade, but I am not going to support this. I hope catering to perverts pays off, Nintendo!

The sexist outfits in Xenoblade were not much better from what I remember. Silly, and hopefully one day the culture will let us move past it.

Well, I guess, it's good to see that those streamers wear whatever their like without complaining "that's a bad thing because [insert moral reason] " and just enjoy the game :)

You literally don't have to use it.

So everything down the drain because there is armor that makes your character show skin ?

Not sure if this post if serious, but if it is, I wonder what you thought about Gravity Rush Kat's outfit, judging by your avatar.

Yea it's just gross. I don't know much about the characterization in the game but I don't imagine that character is a "kid" despite being designed looking/sounding as such.

I played like 15 hours of XBC, and I remember some of the armor for the female hunter being a bit "skimpy", but so was Shulk and the other guys armor at times. Don't remember it going THAT far.
 
I was going to grab this day one here in Japan to stream it for those in NA, but it looks like I don't need to anymore =/
 
Definitely gonna get this even though I'm not into jrpg's. Just really looks like you're exploring an alien world, looks amazing.
 
Bathing attire (Xenoblade) isn't a "sexist outfit."

That seemed to be what it was in XBC, like things you'd wear at the beach. The stream and the video from the previous pages had like their main tank character in under your evening wear. . .o_0

I don't know how much you know about Japanese culture (I'm an expert) but neotenous looks and skimpy clothing are huge parts of it.

This is made by Monolith not Nintendo. Monolith also made Xenosaga and that game had swimsuit outfits for the characters.

I've been to Japan a few times. That shit doesn't permeate the culture to the extremes as folks in the West think. In Tokyo, walking around in Akihabara sure. Kyoto? Not so much. It should get about as much a pass as gross shit in the US doesn't.

If it was a case of "Oh we weren't thinking of it like that. . ." (like Chibi Kurou Sambo or this pair of blackface sandals I saw) then I'd be like "Ok well. . .but you know - " This is obvious. And grossly intentional.

Xenoblade let you put any of the characters in lewd outfits too. You could choose not to if that was your wish. This is the same case with X, so why is something that you never have to actually see a problen now?
 
Xenoblade is equal opportunity in that it allows aquel levels of skin exposure for both male and female characters (though people will often only call out the female characters being half naked to pull the 'sexism' card, or calling Sharla a bad character...). However with X having an underage character, it's a bit awkward I have to agree. Seeing Lyn with those cupped boobs it doesn't feel appropriate for a 13 year old character. Will it bother me? No, because I have the choice to present her the way I want in my game. I'm not gonna judge others, nor Monolith for the options they present you because it's not what defines Lyn's personality.

That is a terribly low meter for whether something shouldn't be in a game or not.

The fact that the game even gives you the option to dress an underage girl like that is mildly disturbing.
 
And I vividly remember Reyn wearing something exactly like that. Xenoblade was very much an equal opportunity game.

No, Reyns version of that armor was nowhere close.

Compare the heavy armor (top row) of Shulk and Reyn to Sharla.

Are you here to lecture people or to enjoy the game ?
I can't empathize with you because those outfits are optionals and not forced on player.
Vote with your wallet but don't force your morals on us, please.
