user?

...

Because typically woman did not realistically wear armor.

because video games

until they find out you arent and fucking murder you faggot.

What games are you playing OP?
Because unless it's Korean MMOs or porn, this is literally a non-issue that has always been a non-issue, even in the most shameless days of vidya.

Oh, are we doing this thread again? Okay, here we go

Wow, you sure proved me wrong by posting Warcraft and it's super realistic armors.

realistic armor for women would be not giving them any armor at all. they didnt believe in marxist fairy tales like equality, so they would not have wasted expensive and prized armor on a woman when they could give it to a man who has much more strength and effectiveness.

kill yourself cuckchan faggot.

wat

Those are WoW Guards, dingus.

Also

Die in a plague plz

You think bludgeoning someone with a pummel is nonlethal? That shit will turn your brains into soup.

Enjoy spilling your guts on the battlefield.

...

I like women in full and completely unveiling armour because I have massive armour fetish and wish to fuck the metal.

I love how high-level armors in that game all look like they've been pulled straight out of the sketchbook of a 13-year-old that plays too much adventure quest.

Some would argue that's part of their charm. I'm not one of those people.

OP is a faggot who can't back up his point.

...

To be fair you'd be hard pressed finding an armor set that DOESN'T look like shit on the Tauren.

Here an example of realistic armor for a woman. It protects her by being worn by her father/brother/uncle/husband/son when he goes out on the battlefield to prevent the enemy form coming near her.

ugh

I want women to wear realistic armor because it normally looks cooler than the stupid shit most devs have for women and so it looks more artistically consistent.

The few times woman did wear armor they wore mens armor because it works on woman.

That ass is gigantic
She'd have gotten raped to death in actual medieval times

theres no such thing as realistic female armor because they never would have wasted precious resources on a woman who they knew was much weaker than a man.they didnt have marxism back then, you see, so they didnt believe in wasting efficiency and effectiveness to pretend everyone was equal.

ONE
JOB

Feminists wouldn't be able to fit inside any of this armour because they are too fat, just like all other clothes. So in that sense all armour in computer games and fantasy is very realistic.

everyone has a nice ass in WoW nowadays. one of very few things blizzard is doing well nowadays. Also fuck realistic armour I love slut mail, women are for fucking after all and not fighting.

There's no such thing as "realistic female armour" because women rarely wore it.
What OP means is "women in full armour suits".

1. There are hundreds of games that feature women in "realistic" armor.

2. It's important to note however that the "boob-plate" is realistic. Armor that showed off the shape of muscles was fairly common among the Romans, and it would present all the same problems attached to armor in the shape of breasts, it was meant to show power. Also, armor with a lot of skin revealed and pieces missing is mostly inspired by gladiator armor which was very revealing.

Further, we see the male version of the boob-plate or "muscle-plate" constantly in super hero films with not a single negative word said about it. Why does Iron Man's armor have biceps and abs? Why is Batman's armor covered in bulging, molded muscles? If it's impractical for women it would be impractical for men too. It's always hilarious to hear a phrase like "That armor would less realistically protect against magic."

3. A perfect example of the ass-backwards thinking the people complaining about the boob-plate can be seen in the latest game in the Gauntlet franchise, aka the game that finally killed the series.

The Warrior and Valkyrie have from day one been portrayed in skimpy outfits. He just wears a barbarian loin cloth, she wears a metal bra. Sequels that followed sexed both characters up, with her wearing a more intricate outfit with an even curvier figure and him looking like a body builder. Then comes along this game. They cover her in so much heavy armor you can't even determine her gender, and put a breastplate on that itself has the same problems a boob-plate does, but conceals the shape of her chest. The devs claimed this had nothing to do with sexism and was all about realism and protection. However, despite claiming this the Warrior was left rippling with muscles in a loin cloth.

Examining the Valkyrie myth makes this even more disgusting, though. Valkryies are supposed to be completely naked, their name loosely translates as "odin's maids" and they're meant to literally be rewards for virtuous warriors who fuck them and bring them food and drinks for eternity in the afterlife.

no, user, what OP meant was
because he's so retarded that he doesn't realize that said set of armor is worn by both, male and female, armor doesn't have a
or
they're pieces of fucking metal and leather.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
THE WEAPON IS FUCKING THICK GARBAGE

KILL YOURSELF
KILL YOURSELF
KILL YOURSELF
KILL YOURSELF
KILL YOURSELF
KILL YOURSELF


SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTT TIER

...

aaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

except it cant be worn by both. armor was heavy as fuck and women have half the body strength that men have. on top of that, their shoulders and hips are totally differently shaped. it is very unlikely a woman would have been able to effectively use male armor, if it was even wearable at all. kill yourself marxist zombie.

So an apron?

Tumblr spotted.

Because woman wearing armor is int itself unrealistic.

Someone needs a hug.

That's one smug Felyne.

Well, there is a reason it was phased out by the "loaf" style or whatever it's called. The flat top absorbs the impacts. You don't want the thing on your head to do that, you want it to deflect it.

pick one.

To be honest women can be really helpful asset in combat.
You can throw it to the enemy, and while they rape it you can do a sneak attack!
Or if they're cute enough, delay enemy's advance for a bit.

Truly castanics are the best fantasy race

I for one am excited that modern militaries have thought it important to expand egalitarianism to the battlefield.

There will be a plethora of hot nubile soldiers being raped by their enemies in the next conflict.

I wonder if this will make them rethink that idea, either way, I will be jerking off.

We do but people like you barely play videogames.

Isn't isreael's army the one with most women?

Yep. It's nice to see the kike's hubris. I'd like to see how long they would last without USA sending them munitions and planes.

because women fighting is not realistic.

that's pretty neat actually

yeah that's pretty much any thread about wanting cute girls in practical armor. then you get the faggots who then try to turn the thread into a chainmail bikini thread even though they can go and make their own thread.

Realistic armor is a strange concept.

Partially because trough history people wore strange armors, and partially because it kinda also depends on the setting and their technology/culture.

Naturally, you want armor to protect you, while remaining mobile.
Since arms and legs are difficult to hit, they are usually the least armored or unarmored (case in point: Roman Legions and Helenistic warriors) - a woman having exposed legs is not unrealistic. Sub-optimal protection, yeah. But not unrealistic.
Boob plate? If you're wearing plate - not THAT stupid. That shit is thickest at the chest, ain't no way an arrow is gonna pierce that. A curved boob plate would be probably better, but again, not a deal breaker.

Exposed midriff/belly and chainmail bikini's are definately stupid.

Fuck off you baiting cunt.
I played 200 hours of monster hunter with a friend before he noticed my pg was a female, and only because we were doing a naked quest
Your real question is
Fuck off scum

In Demon's Souls, female characters aren't even able to wear heavy armor, only leather armor and alike. In Dark Souls, they can wear any armor but the armor still protects you entirely not just the boobs.

Souls franchise is just too good for this shitty humanity.

...

...

Fuck, that's why i wasn't able to get giant ass steel armor?
Gotta replay it as a male next time.

second picture would be better if her kneese were padded, hope she enjoys the steel sticking to her skin and rippiing it off.

I mean first. fuck me.

...

where did her tits go?

Historically, women would wear the same armour as men. No megamilk allowed.

Historically women would collapse under the weight of actual armour.

An amusing response.

sure

Armor isn't that heavy you nog. Rich-man's plate armor is actually pretty light and maneuverable, a child could wear and use it.
Of course, they never really would have. Not because THE PATRIARCHY KEEPING WOMEN DOWN, but because women are fucking ass at fighting (and marching, and everything involved in war), and when populations are low, women are more important to the survival of a country/people than men.

I don't know why people get so upset from women being in armour. It's not based on 100% historical fact, it's a videogame. It's designed to look more feminine, and I think it can look cool.

Get your ebin independent stronk womyn.

Put chaim maille on her. If she can still stand, put the actual plating on her. If she can still stand, put the greaves, gauntlets, and helmet on her. if she can still stand, give her a shield. if she can still stand, give her a weapon and ask her to use it.

so its gone from..

too all that shit you posted, w/e bro

If it's a fictional setting, then women could be stronk, wear armour and all that. I just think that it should it should be designed to actually stop a sword, and like the few women who actually wore armour, there wouldn't be massive jugs and a generic WoW artstyle.

It's almost as if you just proved my point unironically.

REASONS TO HAVE WOMEN IN REALISTIC ARMOR IN VIDEO GAME:

1) because the developers and the target audience prefer that

REASONS TO HAVE WOMEN IN SEXY ARMOR IN VIDEO GAME:

1) because the developers and target audience prefer that

Autism.

calm down and just enjoy cute girls in functional armor.

Full body chain and the weapon are the only problems there. 30kg is nothing, even to a frail-ass weak cunt, when it's spread around the entire body like armor is. They just wouldn't be able to march, but most wouldn't be able to march even naked.
Plate armor isn't thick chunks of metal like most shitty vidya, it's incredible thin, shaped metal. Stop picturing a metal plate, and start picturing a tinfoil tray (but steel rather than tin, obviously).

They totally do, the arrow usually just gets stopped shortly after penetration (so if you have a big pecs or tits, you'll get a superficial wound that's likely to infect). You almost never have noticeably thick plate on the chest. Also, "classic" two-boob plates are stupid as fuck, because then the armor will never deflect a center-mass blow (read: the entire point of a chestplate), and you'll get your sternum bashed or stabbed every time you get hit.

chess with a pigeon

Okay. That's why olympic womyn weightlifters can get up to 75kg.

Spot the cunts.

you seem mad, newfriend

Definitely a woman.

all we're doing is posting cute girls in armor, all you're doing is being a party pooper.

A cute girl is one who knows her place. A cunt in armour who cannot move or swing a weapon is not cute.

Keywords being "spread around the entire body".
I can't fucking carry around 30kg for any amount of time, but I've worn backpacks that were at least 20kg, with a bike helmet, and holding other bags and been fine.

Because maybe 3 women in history ever actually wore armor and they died anyway so who gives a fuck.
The only armor women need is boobplate and other purely aesthetic adornments. They're ornaments, they should dress like it.

It's very different to carry 30kg distributed alongside your mass center and lift 30kg from the ground.

but this is video games user, and we happen to like girls in functional armour in our vidya. if you don't like this then you can go somewhere else and enjoy your bikini chainmail

Are you a woman?

You have your answer why you were able to do that, then.


Sure. Show me a woman holding 30kg on her torso and be mobile.

Also put a helmet on her.

Now that you can grab basically any kind of porn you want for free on the internet, people don't care about different kinds of fanservice that used to be a bit more prominent and common. Gone are the days of needing to hide Playboy magazines, Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Editions, and potentially getting off to PG-13 fanservice and R-rated stuff whether in movies, games, or anime.

No one buys Dead or Alive for the boob jiggle when you can find the WebM clips of it for free online, or porn animations, rule 34 pics, etc. You get right to the stuff you want, skip all the fluff, and get it for free. A consumer does what's best for their wallet and I don't know many people that would turn down the content they care about when they can get it for free.

Personally, I just want functional or reasonable armor. You can 98% of the time tell if it's a woman by their face/hair, or by their voice if they have a voiceover. It depends on the setting of course, the Final Fantasy VII designs don't have characters really wearing stuff that would stop a sword thrust or a bullet. But a setting like that has various forms of magic and seems more focused on swordplay for physical attacks, meaning that in non-video game form it would be more about parrying and dodging weapons than trying to tank them with technology and gear. Advent Children and the Last Order OVA show that off fairly well.

Now it's not exactly realistic that someone with Cloud's build (or Zack's build) could effectively wield a big ass Buster Sword. But they were involved with special by sorts of experiments revolving around Materia and were part of that special SOLDIER group, so it makes sense how some kinds of people in that fictional realm could wield those abilities. As long as there's a proper explanation somewhere like "I wear open clothes like these cus I live in a hot climate." or something, then it won't really bother me. If it seems shoehorned in cus the creators like sexy girls, I can get sexy girls many other ways for free, I don't need your game for that and I'm looking for a good game I couldn't get elsewhere. If you don't make a game that's good or fun, don't expect me to give you money.

If you wanna make a game with sexy armors and outfits, then whatever floats your boat. Just don't expect that element of the game to actually sell it or get me to buy it if it's mediocre crap like the dime a dozen games already out there. It's not like many plots actually involve someone in Tarzan's shoes where they don't have the modern conveniences of various sorts of clothes to cover up, and not all premises end up good that have solders who prefer not to wear armor.

Lords of Magic had one selectable side in the game that had soldiers like that (Chaos, essentially barbarian type folk), but the tradeoff was that their units were fit for mass attacking and ganging up on opponents before the super low armor rating of their troops came back to bite them. Their units were super good but their armor was easily the lowest of all the melee units in the game, so there it made sense.

Yes. Not collapse having just put it on and stood up, but collapse during any soldierly activities. You need only look at modern women and their military efforts, where they cannot complete exercises to an acceptable standard under a comparable load. Thanks.

Searching for masculine qualities in women is gateway homolust. You're arguing with people who are arguing from pathology.

Because sex sells batter then realism.

...

Well… I'd hate to be THAT guy, but there wouldn't really be any realistic armor for women because in such times women never really needed to fight in armor so it was never made so there's no basis for realistic armor for women, but since now we have female warriors in video game, the most logical thing to do it to model the armor wrapping around the body of the wearer like we did with the old armors for men.

So yeah, it's muhdick. I like tits and ass anyway, so I'm pretty much ok with fantasy armor, actually I'd preffer they would dress like Red Sonja, because you know, muhdick

sad but true

Because the Patriarch and Groovy Goggles want to compress woman!

what are you on about now?

Because realistically women shouldn't be near a battlefield.

She's hot

...

Because the average person wants titty armor, and because (((SJWs))) and their sponsors higher up on the ladder of poz don't, I'm inclined to agree with them.

It's a shame because Power Suit Samus is pretty hot.

Because realistically you wouldn't see women in armor.

...

You can have realistic armor on females in the legendary TES© series, you should buy them all.

That looks like a googly-eyed camel wearing a strange kippah.

So why are shitposters so inclined to shit on these threads? evreytime a thread for functional armor is made, just a bunch of shitposters swarm in about muh realism and muh weak women when it's just about cute girls in aromr in video games?

see

OP asked for realism though.
There's a difference between armor that would actually protect a woman and realistic armor for women.


If you're looking for nondegeneracy you've come to the wrong place, try again.

Read the OP then think of all the RPGs that allow women to wear realistic armor, only a pleb would not know about these games making OP a troll, retard or retarded troll.

In this era though, if you want sexy looking Power Suit Samus or Zero Suit Samus or whatever, the internet makes it available for free. You don't need to buy a game for that. Just grab that stuff online without needing to buy the games.

It's no wonder we're living in a generation of cord cutters (not keeping cable/satelleite TV), and it's no wonder publications like Playboy are going fast on the downslope. There are far more avenues for content now, and people don't want to have to pay for fluff they don't care about just to gain access to the things they were wanting access to.

so?

but I like seeing girls in chainmail and plat armor, it's more pleasing to me than chainmail bikinis.

that's why

Why are you attracted to the idea of a woman who doesn't know her place and unironically thinks she's your equal?

also check'm

...

So close, user

because the women isn't real and is in Fantasy.
this isn't hard to understand.

I don't disagree with you. Chainmail bikinis are dumb.


That doesn't follow

...

Hullo Jim Sterling, taking a break from sucking indie dev cock I see.

So, you're suggesting that abstractions are infinitely self-referential, and that your ideal tastes are entirely discrete from your real tastes, despite them sharing neurons?

relevant

...

Are you really trying to deconstruct taste by blabbering big words like a pseudo intellectual?

Yes? Most lolifags don't want to fuck real children, most vorefags don't want to get eaten, and most gurofags don't want to cut women up. Rape is one of the most common fantasies of women and yet categorically nobody wants to get raped. Not to mention all the people reading rape doujins who never rape anyone.

I hope women would go to war so they would die as cannon fodder, fucking normalfags

It's actually sort of funny that nobody complained about shit like the draft being "unfair" until they mentioned applying it to women for the sake of equality.

OP doesn't want "realistic armor for women", she just wants another "Bikini armor is sexist misogynistic something that makes landwhales uncomfortable 'unrealistic'." thread.

Women didn't participate in the military on the front lines. The realistic armor for Women is Skimpy Armor made as a sort of lingerie. So all those Asian games with plate/chain bikini is actually the most realistically female armor.

"Words you do not understand" are not materially equivalent with "big pseudo intellectual words". Case in point is your use of "deconstruction" on what is actually "critical rationalism".

So in furtherance of your argument that real and ideal tastes are entirely discrete, once again despite them literally sharing neurons, you bring as evidence the self-reporting of pedophiles and other deviants for whom acting on their tastes is not feasible or otherwise punished?

Whether or not they report they want to fuck real children or be eaten or cut people up is irrelevant, because this does not reflect on their underlying tastes. The mechanism for altering the emergent behavior is suppressing such urges with the frontal lobe, which is done on a case by case basis, i.e. as the taste manifests in a possible act, but does not remove the urge itself. I defer to the neurosciences which measures brain activity in relevant experiments, rather than the reporting of an individual who is highly motivated by others to give responses such as he does.

As for the lack of contest on my question of infinitely self-referential abstractions, I will take it that you cede the point, and conclude on that front by stating that ultimately, abstractions relate to reality.

Therefore, if you enjoy watching chicks with dicks in cartoons, there is an underlying taste which results in that behavior, and which likely informs other desires, whether or not they are acted upon.

Not that user, but if I'm understanding your last sentence correctly…you're saying that liking futa means that the person in question is at least somewhat interested in men?

Vanillia. 1 Man 1 Girl.
Futa. 1 Girl with a Dick with 1 Girl.

Futa is less gay than Vanilla.

I'm saying that there is an underlying taste which may manifest in such behavior as being interested in real men. I am also saying that suppressing such desire with the frontal lobe can result in either no interest in men, or even reaction formation against it.

To be absolutely sure what is going on case by case, you would measure brain activity in response to certain stimuli. You would literally see the areas light up, and whether or not it is suppressed. This is far more compelling than self-reporting.

Understand that none of this is a prescriptive argument, i.e. we shouldn't consider everyone who likes chicks with dicks to be faggots, but there certainly is the potential for them to be due to their underlying tastes.

Futa is even more gay, because there's a dick where there's no reason for one to be there.

Where's the user that posts armor porn?

Because women don't fight wars.

Because bitches fighting isn't realistic

Them staying in the kitchen however is

Thing is, most depictions of the things I mentioned are nowhere near the real thing. The pain and horror of getting eaten or having your abdomen sliced open is often downplayed, and most rape doujins end up with the girl enjoying it in the end, or having wanted it all along. The viewer also knows that what's happening isn't real and that they're fictional characters. In real life you'd have moral inhibitions against doing those things to real human beans.

So, to answer OP's bait question: realistic, practically designed armor is essentially unisex. Stripping away any decorative or superfluous elements, armor was designed to counter weapons contemporary to their era.
In a realistic setting, women would virtually never wear armor. They were preferably kept as far from the battlefield as possible for a broad variety of well-justified reasons.

Assuming that the spirit of OP's question is along the line of "in a fantastical setting where verisimilitude would require you to accept that the sexes are equally capable and sexual dimorphism doesn't effect potential combat prowess, why are women's and men's armor designs so different (for a broadly recognizable example: WoW)?" The answer is very simple: The designers–who certainly didn't care about realism–expected you to accept those differences as part of the verisimilitude of the setting. Essentially, there is absolutely no good "in-setting" reason for these differences. If that isn't a satisfactory reasoning–namely, no reasoning at all–then that's your problem.
tl;dr: OP is a faggot who likes safe bait. The reason skimpy female armor exists is because skimpily-dressed women are something most people like to see.

An user made an interesting research post on that topic a while ago. The gist was that some people become conditioned to focus on the female's pleasure rather than their own, and futa is a stage in a process by which they come to self-insert as women or ersatz women. He had compiled some supporting evidence, and from what I understand of conditioned sexuality and mirror neurons, I'm fairly inclined to agree pending serious falsification.

Essentially, you're conditioning yourself with the desire for feminine sexual pleasure, and futa is an intermediate stage. He suggested there were many routes to progress down, i.e. straight from there to homolust, or to homolust by way of lesbians, or via highly abstract cartoons, but the direction of progress is all essentially the same.

Gay or not, if it means there's more girl and less hairy man ass, then that's alright with me.

Exactly. Hopefully the next time this comes up it can be nipped in the bud.

Like I said, suppression by the frontal lobe, but some people do not, as we can see in cases where they do meet up and fuck kids/cut each other up/eat each other.

Man, this makes me think of my proud twelve months in the service of the spurdöland defence force. I had the distinct privilege of serving the company as the female recruits. Out of twenty or so of them only one was really up to par compared to the average dude.

About half of them dropped out within the first two months. Remember that these were volunteers who, I would assume, should be motivated to give it a real shot. Probably the proudest moment was when one of the women started crying at the obstacle course because she was too afraid to climb a rope up a 3 to 4 meter tall wall and jump down.

> serving in the same company as
wtf

The only true armor a woman can use. Which is why infidels fear what they do not know unless they're pitching a tent down there then you know who to stone to death

Post more cute girls in slut armor/realistic armor/fantasy armor

Women shouldn't be wearing armor.

Why is Emperor Nero even a Saber?

I dunno why, but something about burkas give me a giant boner.

or are you virgin enouth to thing boobs are so HUGE you would have to make a special breasplate for them ?

...

you're way over analysing my post, I was just playing semantics, but what you say is interesting.

user…
are you a sand nigger?

No
but you don't have to be a sand nigger to enjoy this.

How the fuck can you have a burka fetish? Burkas are made specifically so the retarded dune coons don't rape everyone in their sight.

fam, there are people here into vore, loli and guro yet burkas are the ones that surprise you?

Easy.

Take wraith, put her in a burka and jerk off.

All of those can be sexualized. A burka is made so you're NOT sexualized.


Fuck off furfag.

Because realistically, women don't wear armor at all because they can't be warriors.

To be fair, that statue is not islamic in the slightest. Those perfectly created curves are perfectly okay to enjoy.

There must always be (at least one) Saber clone.

Wraith is furry?


Ya I know

We had this thread several times already.

Its just /tg/ shitposting a lot as usual.

never underestimate dicks.

How else are you supposed to fuck the Whore of Babylon at any given moment? What else would a butt window be for?


we need more butt windows


Kill yourself


I wasn't talking about the statue

That's disguting. Burkas are only acceptable among sandniggers because their women are fucking ugly as shit anyway.

Strange, I've never seen a goat with a Burka.

Personally I like their traditional clothes more, revs up my dong like nothing else

Realistic armor for women is called civilization you dumbass.

good job OP

but that's wrong you fucking retard

Syria and Pakistan are maximum muhdick

Egypt is best girl since i have a taste for niggresses

It's the Schrödinger effect that's the turn on. The anticipation of beauty beyond dimensions or the horror of the Old Gods nightmare. Basically your dick will oscillate at around 400Hz.

>>>/zoo/

For a long time I didn't understand what the fuck Saber's armor was supposed to be, what with the complete lack of helmet, shoulder protection and any sort of padded or maille underneath.

It wasn't until I found some kendo armor that I realized that the fuckers had just straight up taken those armor they see in the school kendo clubs and made them metal and thrown away the helmet, when designing Saber's gear.

Note the lack of upper arm and shoulder protection, the huge gauntlets and the distinctive Japanese chest piece along with the huge faulds for upper leg protection. If they had gone with a more samurai like design, they would have had similar screens on the shoulders as they had for the faulds.

you have shiiiiiiit taste m8

how can something be realistic if it was never real

/internet/

Burkas hide the human face. It's a bit like zentai or latex.

Though once they got someone who actually know some shit about armor on board for Prototype, the Saver design turned out pretty cool.

The hoodie+the fur collar is just so weeb comfy that I can't hate it.

I don't know what I was expecting but thanks for curing my ED.

It's a bait thread, but would it be unkosher to say that my own preference for allowing women the ability to equip fictional armor in games is less to do with realism, practicality, and sexism and more to do with allowing greater freedom of choice?

I used to hate bikini armor, yet I've fapped to it and I have no issue about seeing men running around like Conan the barbarian in nothing but loincloths and wielding double-bitted axes. Over time I realized that when it comes to fictional people in fictional settings, that I do not care if sexual dimorphism is ignored and/or that the laws of physics and nature are subverted to allow anorexic japanese thirteen year-olds to wield swords the size of small cars. What used to bother me was that chainmail bikinis were the default and not the option. Relating to that, I think what I dislike about current trends in vidya is now that full-plate armor in fantastical settings for both sexes is that it is now forced in the same way metal bikinis used to except that instead of doing it for the sake of fun or pandering, it is being done out of fear of being accused of being sexist. In the present, I've come to love most of the dumb armor and weapons of both men and women in games, hell, I've come to love dumb weapons like flails too, they only add to the fun.

That's not to say that practical armor isn't cool and that seeing it applied in a fantastical setting isn't fun either. Human history is badass and seeing the things that have been used to conquer nations and repel invasion applied to impractical and fantastic universes makes my dick hard. The Souls series does this well as it has plenty of historical and fantasy-inspired armors and weapons, making it a matter of choice as to how you build your character.

TLDR; I like both, but I like it even better when it's a matter of choice.

Are they naked under those suits?

The Etrian Odyssey series has some good female in armour designs.

that seems heavily autistic

Yes. No. Maybe?

guy looks like a cool cat

How are they able to breathe?

HNNNGGG

Shit fetish. She might be an absolutely fugly granny underneath.

You can breathe through fabric.

It's dead, Jim.

The subject requires more contemplation.

this guy gets it.

If you are going to put a woman i 'realistic' armor, you may as well just have that character be a man.

user…
what do you need to enjoy this?

arab porn a best

Realism can be done well
Over the top insanity can be done well
People who bitch about something being unrealistic are gigantic fucking faggots.

excellent taste my friend, foreign traditional clothing is best fetish

...

Retarded armor design. Looks like she already got an axe wound.

This user is the most correct person in this thread.
Female characters should be dressed however their creator wants them to dress, whether it's a string bikini made of leather, Ripley's combat harness, or anything in between

This is a really annoying trend in Japanese media in general and once you start noticing it it just gets more and more annoying every time. Basically 100% of swordfighting in manga and anime is just copy pasted kendo moves, even in settings and situations where it makes no sense. People from clearly european inspired cultures wielding european style swords hold them and swing them like they were doing kendo. Basically the only series I know that showed people using swords accurately was Maria the Virgin Witch.

I approve, considering that the most traditional clothing possible is no clothing at all.

gotta cut weight somewhere, women aren't strong enough to wear full plate

Are you funposting or actually retarded?

As much as "women don't fight" is a retarded meme, this post did offer some keks. Well done.


Shaped boob-plate is terrible at deflecting blows: not only does it angle the blows towards the sternum (VERY bad), but armor with a slight outwards curve (like most men's armor) would do a much better job of deflecting attacks, absorbing impacts, and distributing the force over a greater area. Imagine the outward curve of a car door, but on your chest.


I wish it could always be like this (when the setting is appropriate). I'd rather not have to worry about realism in muh fantasy, but I can see why some might (because real armor looks pretty fucking cool honestly).

post moar.

Where's the AK-47, you lying little shit?

I don't understand this meme. Is the joke that they dress in the most objectively comfortable clothing in existence? That's not funny.

Because women, realistically, don’t do the fighting.

Now fuck off, feminist.

Waste of quads.

It's fiction, user. Deal with it.

If it's fiction, then why care if the armor's realistic or not?

What a terrible get.

You'd not only need steel to protect your head but you'll also need some sort of cushion.

Because it's a niche in terms of concepts, and should be expressed more, but isn't.

I guess mario can't jump or save princesses in fiction because italians are incompetent irl.

But let's be honest here: nobody cares that it's niche. The only time you ever hear about skimpy armor in a negative way is from legbeards and the like complaining about it being too revealing.

The fifth one is objectively the best armor, with the fourth one being a close second.

Not really, I just thought armor looks cool and chain bikinis without padding looks extremely painful. maybe it's you're case that femenists hate chainmail bikinis so much that you (along with alot of other fun haters itt) will assume anyone that doesn't like chain mail bikinis is automatically a legbeard tumblr sjw.

Because it's been a regular talking point whenever vidya is brought into the feminist spotlight. There's a bingo card out there that I can't be bothered to find at the current moment.
It's a legitimate counterargument when people try to bring "muh realism" into an argument. Especially in a fantasy setting with things like dragons or magic. Seems like a petty thing to pick out and focus on.

Lords of Magic was a good game. Fire also had their nearly naked barbarian grunts, usually units were shared by two factions with a rename, another example was Water's heavy cav being nearly identical to Order's knights.

That looks amazing.

Mario is a nigger and niggers can jump, so it's realistic.

but niggers can't swim and hate being near water.

Can you find an example in recent media where it's brought up negatively and it's NOT just because of tits?

Except, for the most part, the fun haters are the ones who will look at a chainmail bikini and get pissy about how it's "not realistic". Of course it's not realistic, it's a fantasy setting.

Because that's usually the ones talking about it in a negative way. The same way you'd assume that the person talking about "white power" would probably be a white supremacist.

so the only reason you and those other faggots fight so much against girls in practical armor is because you assume it's all SJWs and Femenists trying to infiltrate?

...

No, it's in defense of what people enjoy. And look at the OP and tell me that's not a stock "bikini armor is bad, guise" post.

Hopefully the reddit will leave after summer.

I just wanted to post cute girls but people hate fun. even when they weren't bait threads and it was just people wanting to discuss about girls in armor it got bombarded with faggots who tried derailing and crashing it much like they have done here.

You won't know unless you search her thoroughly.


Hard to argue with this.

The opposite is also true; if there's a thread with a majority of "bikini armor" some faggot will come in and tell the thread how ineffective it is. Yeah of course it's ineffective, it's a magical world with magical creatures and things that make no sense. And, like I've said before, when it's always brought up in places like cucktaku, supported by legbeards, and then shat on here it's not hard to draw a conclusion to what's going on.

meant for:

WTF with new post redirects appearing not at the bottom but at the top now? I blame codemonkey.

There should be a compromnise, realismfags get their own thread and bikinifags get their own threads, of course for this to work it would mean the mods would actually have to do their job for once and ban shitposters.

That's also stupid, because separating them leads to a disjointed userbase. Things are already fractured enough, as it is. Plus let's be real here: it's just going to be a superiority complex circlejerk over how much more "realistic" things are.

I just want to post cute girls and discuss things warmly, it's that too much to ask?

No, the majority of posters do not hate fun. It's only a small minority of "trolls" that shit up threads with "bait" accusations.

If you have to ask that, the answer always ends in yes

It's like these faggots don't know how threads work.

because it doesn't please my dick. Also your "armor" also has boobplates which I like

At least I have no limit to my expectations. As long as the bag is on the head I could be fucking a granny dolphin and I'd believe it's the hottest girl I've ever laid.

fucking /thread

Fucking christ, why

You are one buttmad Holla Forumstard.

Before the USSR fell, Adidas were considered top-tier clothing. Since you could only get them smuggled in, it became a big thing in organized crime - wearing Adidas was a way to show off how rich and connected you were. Eventually the USSR fell, but the cultural meme remained, it's just that now they're not rare smuggled goods, so everyone wears them. Gopniks wearing adidas are the cultural equivalent of niggers wearing low baggy jeans and a chain, which makes the whole slav meme especially hilarious.

Same reason retards during the first exodus thought watermarking WEBMs was a good idea.

It's generated using the screencap button on the bottom of the page.

I'll never understand why anyone would watermark OC on an imageboard. Krautchan did it and it was fucking awful.

dont you faggot know that melae or female plate armor ARE THE SAME ?

breastplate with the form of a pair of boobs is stupid and historicaly inacurate


that aint a watermark since you just have to cut the useless white bottom part to get rid of it…

I do, and so does OP, dumbass.

well fredderit breddit invites reddit in so there's that

No such thing because women don't belong on the battlefield. Unless you're talking about those so-called "female samurais" that got watered-down samurai training and wimpy spears to help in sieges but their efficacy was hardly even mediocre in their intended function and they didn't wear armor.

because pic and filename related (or just see )

Then why phrase it like that, dumbass?

I guess the true question is "Why is the physics of properly working armor so misogynistic?" For reals, it's like physics is sexual bigotry and there really needs to be some way to reshape it to better allow women to wear whatever armor they want and it should work as intended without the biases we see in current and historic male-made armors.

Just do the same armor for both genders with minor changes in ass and tits like in Fallout NV.

I fucking love properly armored women

They just look so cute in it and I love the idea of getting to take all of it off them, and then have them take all my armor off me.

...

...

change for the waist :sure
for tits ? why ? is she supposed to be naked ? you usually have 2 other layer under the plate, thus there is no need to use a special breastplate.
stop thinking litterary, breatplate doesnt mean you have to draw or mold breast on it …

again look at hstorical female warrior like Joan of Arc …

btw:
if we lived in a word where korean style armor didn t exist : feminist would still call female's armor sexist/mysoginistic as it use the same as man. instead of giving them special armor for their body specification.

yes

Because I want it? What? Do you want a treatise?

I want an entire book series.

Troll post aside, the only legitimate way to armor a female is to put her in armor. Note, no fucking gender. Armor is armor. Male armor also works for females, it's already designed to best displace force, deflect penetration, and in general protect the person wearing it. (for its time period) Making armor "fitted" for women is a fairly silly thing to do since it'll still be "male" armor, only sized to fit as well as possible for the woman's shape, not her figure.

Otherwise if you really want to see her tits or make the armor more comfortable to wear around her chest and waist, you're going to have to limit that armor to materials that are more form-sitting, like leathers and chainmail. For modern female soldiers just look up what they wear today ("men's" armor, females don't get special exception) and for good future armor it'd still be the same as men's armor. (Oddly enough, "All You Need is Kill" / "Edge of Tomorrow" got this right)

Things like leather armor can be pretty skintight. There are armors like that. In NV for instance, the ranger armor does no such thing to the character because it's thick riot armor with a trench coat.

DS3 had a couple of armor items made for women from Irithyll

although the pontiff knight set doesn't have arm protection which is odd - Dancers does though

social justice warrior

You are very new to the internet, it seems.

Go lurk more, shitposter.

That's the easiest way to see someone trying to fit in, by the way. Don't say stuff like that if you don't expect a response.

Clearly they were going for realism after all

selective realism is best though. you know, why would an earthling be able to knock up an alien girl with a suspiciously human anatomy?

You don't know anything about gooks. Look at that faggot prince from the first one.

Look at every other guy from the first one. he was an exception.

If magic is powerful enough, realistically no one should be fighting in melee, they can either get their conjured armies to do it for them, or pelt each other with fireballs and magic missiles until one of them runs out of mana. If no one is in melee, no one needs armor. Women wouldn't need realistic armor in a game focused entirely upon magic.

if magic is so great you could enchant the armor so its worth a damn again, although it wouldnt necessarily have to be full ass plate

That's a very easy way to oust yourself as a newfag in denial.

...

I like how these threads turn into fedora wearing betas complaining about how it wouldn't be realistic because women didn't fight, but are totally okay with unrealistic weapons and armor for men :)

...

i dont think it was ever meant to be a solid argument

And you're one deluded retard.

kys fam

Bump :3

Then why can't they let the patricians enjoy best fetish?

fuck off and play the souls games or Mount and Blade or Morrowind or fucking anything not made for weeb faggots

It would be cheaper, faster and much better to conjure up a spell that makes your skin as hard but not as heavy as the metal in question. Even better, dodge the attacks as they're coming in if you can. Even better: use telekinesis or a spell absorption ability to fling back all the enemies power right at them.

...

I thought OP just meant armor that wasn't all thongs and tiddies

because they are a strange militant breed of men with monkey brains who will only say and believe what suits them.


how do you know that? are you a wizard? surely there are some materials particularly good at holding enchantments. not to mention selling enchanted armor would make for good practice and money for fledgling sorcerers who cant just conjure up all of their mortal needs.

Whatever could you mean anonymous? Do you mean armor that females would hypothetically wear in combat if they were to be put there for whatever reason? Because then that is whatever you want it to be really since woman have not been in the battlefield in enough capacity to generate a demand for female oriented battle wear, and all you see them wear is male armor with some modifications.

Realistic armor for females would be going naked because realistically a woman would not be fighting.

Of course if by realistic armor you mean the sort of armor that does not clash with the theme and aesthetic of the setting, well it depends on the product really.

Another original argument that has been posted dozens of times in this thread already

What pathetic men.

I bet they're the same types who don't find Samus in her power-armour hot.

Ok

>Samus in her power-armour

There haven't been that many zombie outbreaks other than San Francisco, either, but that doesn't mean more games like Dead Rising shouldn't exist, plebeian.

Knowledge of the arcane is itself an enchantment upon your body. Skin, the mind, and everything pertaining to the Human, Elfen, Orcish, or really just sapient form is the ultimate material, it can hold enchantments that no metal on this Earth or any other could. All magic is an enchantment, but not all magic is enchanting.

...

nice trips user but your friend there is just fucking around.


y-yes sir

Shitposting is a bannable offense, buddy.

Too bad. This website is serious business, and so are steel titties.

...

Same goes for you bud

YOU WILL ADDRESS ME WITH RESPECT!

mmm dat fullpl8

This is a serious thread, homo. Go away.

How about we leave at the same time?

No. You've got no reason to shitpost this thread, other than the fact you want to project your shit taste on the rest of the board, pleb. Now, get out of here.

"Realistic" female armor is just male armor, so even the "realistic armor for females" you often see is just fantasy bullshit for /clang/-lite. Even for a particularly well endowed woman, the only real customization you'd need is more or less stuff you wouldn't notice to look. Things like wearing a slightly larger armor size, and the adjusting the straps and padding underneath coupled with binding the breasts and the natural flattening that would occur with chain undercoat and/or padding.

Aside from making good looking eye candy, you'd think more developers would create realistic armor for females in their games simply because it would save a ton on not having to model all of your armor assets twice (or four times over, depending on how robust your body sliders are).

There's a few Skyrim mods which basically just apply male armor to females, if that's any consolation. I used them myself for a while, mainly because it made my dick hard.

There are ID's here, you can't do that thing you do in >>>/furry/

same tbqh fam, smh

What's wrong with that?

What? All I'm getting from your post is that you visit /furry/. Go back there. Will you?

It's not a bannable offense for me to keep replying to your shitposts.

You faggots are the reason why the "cool armor design threads" are no longer a thing.

>>>/tumblr/
>>>/sjw/
>>>/reddit/

Concept art threads should be banned for spam.

>>>/gay/

There might not be a helmet. And there might still be a human inside.

Still not seeing anything wrong here.

People are surprisingly capable of carrying staggering amounts of weight which is (somewhat) evenly distributed and close to the center of mass. If modern women with no strength or endurance training can waddle their fat fucking asses around WalMart at least until they hit the 400lb mark, then surely it would have been more than possible for a woman to (hypothetically) been properly trained and conditioned to wear full plate mail armor which only would have weighed a fraction of what one of these cookie-monsters gunts currently weigh in at.

Shit taste, coming though:
uniform or casual > military gear > classical armor > mech/amorsuit > navy uniform > fantasy armor

But it never happened, user.

You can't ride in giant robots, and have chicks in armour, when neither of those things ever happened! It's too fictional.

Nothing is "wrong" with it, so long as you don't try to pass it off as "realistic".

Why does fiction have to be totally fictional?

Isn't it more interesting to throw in some realistic elements for the sake of intrigue, and general credibility?

Oh well, as long as the armor is sapient.

That's the spirit.

also

Why does fiction have to be totally realistic?

Isn't it more interesting to throw in some fictional elements for the sake of intrigue, and general imagination?

Pretty accurate.

Answer the questions, faggot.

I did, m8.
There is literally no point to fiction as entertainment if it deals purely with what is both possible and commonplace, and fiction as preaching is dishwater dull outside of the highly fantastical, such as Dr. Seuss, or the fucking parables of Jesus.

While verisimilitude is important, you don't get it by being realistic 100% of the time.

But user, it's obviously /monster/shit :^).
And a damn fine manga at that.

Too bad the people translating it dropped it because it wasn't just cute girls doing cute things like they thought it would be.

It's pretty shit. All these chicks with tails are just for businessmen to get their kicks with cheap costumes and hookers.

But if it's a snout, it's out. amirite?

where the fuck would somebody post, on /clang/ or some shit? /d/?

Post some really slutty ahegao, not not just stuck out tongues..

Not only ignorant, but also dumber than Holla Forums's average. Furryshit is almost always overtly sexualized, or at least trying to be lewd, retard.

Source on the last pic?

Thought I found a good thread, too bad.
The hunt goes continues.

Might as well be a chain bikini for that distinct lack of realism.

UNHHHh

You're thinking Seven Sorrows. That Warner Bros. cash-in is just an act of necrophilia.
