The female scouts and assaults don't look like female soldiers clad in armour, they look like photo-shopped models clad in armour.
While this is fine and progressive in the context of gaming in general, it just feels out of place in the context of New Eden. I'm not saying that the way the female mercenaries look is sexist or anything like that, I'm saying their look is inconsistent and jarring. |

I'm not saying that the way the female mercenaries look is sexist or anything like that, I'm saying their look is inconsistent and jarring. "Model". They are soldiers, of course they are going to be physically fit. If you mean with gigantic buxom and an unproportionate posterior, I'm going to say I don't really see that.
They don't look physically fit at all, they have nice breasts and huge bums with anorexic limbs and waist, they just look odd, everything is out of proportion.
I also think the male scout and assault suits look odd and out of proportion, too, but not to the extent that the female suits do and at least they look as if a soldier is occupying them. |

Nope, military women tend to be fairly curvy, the dust 514 women do not look like military women, they're an odd combination of stick thin legs with a curvy bum and chest.
I'm certainly not arguing for them to look like men or to get rid of their breasts, I'm arguing for them to look like military women. They just feel out of place given how seriously the New Eden world takes itself otherwise.
Ideally, we'd be able to make our on characters in future and this'll all be moot.
Do they not look a bit scrawny for a soldier? http://cdn.dualshockers.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/female_mercs-660x371.jpg
They're as stick thin as me, and I'm as weak as a kitten. |
