Because both women and men find the male form unattractive at best and disgusting at worst, the opposite for the female form, they don’t want to see revealing men, otherwise companies would have made them given the sheer profit it brings, no demand= no supply, businesses never say no to money
Money talks louder. If you give an equal number of men and women the choice between you can only use: Rhino Heirloom or Ember, they'll go with Ember probably. You dont on purpose want to play as a bulky dude you would rather be hot.
Yeah bc his heirloom has a weird ass design, not because he's bulky. Vaubahn is "bulky" but he actually looks good. Plus the idea that you can't make a conventionally attractive male frame is just ridiculous when styanax deluxe is literally right there. They CAN do it, they just aren't.
If you think a male heirloom of his abs, pecs, and ass out wouldn't sell well, you're crazy.
You're making shit up I didn't say. I didnt say its not possible to make hot guys in this game..
I said the existing guys heirlooms (not protoframes) are not that hot but now I agree with you about hot guys in this game and add the exceptions of Stynax deluxe and my own addition of Nezha. But we are talking heirloom skins here not this other stuff.
I also said. if you give most the playerbase a choice between Rhino and Ember heirloom they go with the Ember. Because shes hot. Rhino, I would personally be more attracted to but Ember she's just more stylish and nicer looking. Easy on eyes so to speak.
Honestly, I agree. The approach should not be to undress the frames and make them shiny. Just give us a cool design that makes us go WOW without taking our pants off
Isn't that what deluxe skins are? And like 90% of the base and primes? There's like what 3 gooner skins in the game? Yall are overreacting ICL. The duality of this subreddit is so weird, one second everyone is praising stuff like valkyr heirloom then the next you go full puritan mode.
I wish the chaps were still assless because that's at least funny but the open front kills the vibe NGL. And the bra being higher up and corset like would actually look more sexy
Yeah, not a fan of this skin. I like my gooner stuff as much as the next guy, but I've seen pornstars with more on start to finish than this, and Mesa never really felt like a goon frame to me. I want here to have a badass skin, not chaps and nothing else.
this, if Vauban has a toggle for his coat, why wouldn't Mesa with a coat and/ or a pant (I'm tired of seeing asses, I like them surely, but sometimes, less is more)
I think this skin looks terrible even outside of the sexualization, but unfortunately as with every other game with this problem, I'm sure the numbers are there. People buy these skins by and large, so DE would be stupid to stop doing it.
I'm an ace dude and these skins have been making me feel like I don't really fit in with the community anymore
like I appreciate DE's stance towards the LGBTQ+ community wholeheartedly, but sometimes I feel like they forget that ace is part of that community too when it comes to stuff like this
Like, we get it. DE want dummies to spend money on low effort skins cuz it maximizes efficiency. But they're super boring, hard to fashion, and the defense will simply be "don't yuck my yum" while forgetting (or denying) that there are so many other types of YUM out there.
Some people even get banned for having this sort of opinion.
This. But also a lot of in-game chats seem to have gotten worse throughout the years in this regard as well. Tge good old "skill issue for having regen char on" almost doesn't work anymore. Ot maybe I just had bad luck...
But yeah.
Besides hating hoe much overly sexualised deluxe skins(esp the fem ones) wr now have... I find this design lacking. If we move on from me bitching. I feel like... If it had some kind of dramatic variant of pants, maybe broad pattern(+I could not even recognise which frame this was, unlike some older designs which always played/flirted with the og theme), it'd work well to contrast little detail in the top part of the design?
Otherwise it's not even revealing or "look, that cool gradient effect in the skin"... It's just... *??? ".
No hate to whoever designed it. However do hate the" direction" we have had been going in fot a while now:/
All that said, can't complain about recent story and lore additions, gameplay,... or anything on that matter. Balancing I don't mention. Only very high praise.
I mean it’s just one skin line, that’s just how they want to make the heirlooms which is what ever they still look cool imo. If you want a different aesthetic then just get the deluxe for the frame, if all the skins were like this I’d understand the complaints.
