I've seen fewer males in skimpy armor, and even fewer of any gender toon with male companions in the armor, than I do females. So really blaming the "gay agenda" for it, when it's used more for females, is ridiculous. Might as well blame feminists too.
Lol that's The reason ALL my female characters are dressed in skimpy clothes. And as a straight male who'll spend several hundred hours leveling a character, I might as well enjoy the view. And I've seen plenty of ppl with male characters in skimpy clothes. While it's not something I'd do personally, it's not up to me to decide how someone else chooses to dress their characters.

I don't like the skimpy outfits (male or female) because it's just bad, contradictory "design", in the sense that why would someone go into battle wearing next to nothing, sure you can argue that the jedi/sith only have bits of cloth anyway and the force can protect them, but non-force users? Theoretically they should be getting blown to bits. I don't mind straight up skimpy gear, e.g. the slave girl outfits or the covert stuff (which is basically nothing anyway) for *social* purposes

but armour that has shoulder pads and armoured kneepads and gloves and guards... with a bare chest and exposed rear-end, what? I don't understand the design behind these sets.

Also that thread that was mentioned earlier... that is some weird fetish stuff, like some of that stuff is just strange to me, I guess it's fan-art and it's what a few people want (because the majority of that thread is one guy photoshopping borderline NSFW gear, lol, and if it carries on this way it's not a good sign of the direction the game's design is going in :/)

What a hate against game outfits... I would prefer that they would stop making plastic looking/not star war ish gear. Or gear with flashing light on it (republic pilot suit for example)

There is skimpy outfits in movies.

Not that I like people running around in bikini. As straight woman I dont see any need to dress my chars that way. But it's absolutely no my businnes if others want to do so. My character wears dress, and if someone would be bothered about it I wouldn't care. It's individual's right to dress char like they will

I have a problem with it because it doesn't feel right with some of the characters. For example, Elara would never wear such thing, same goes to Risha.

Also most of those things are just distasteful... "things" that are in no form and shape comparable to real sexy armor. It just screams; hey lets show female milk glands to bunch of 12 year old boys. They will love it. And that is how I see people using those armors, a bunch of 12 year old immature boys.

But mostly the first reason.

You have bad taste in outfits, something you and the design team for these packs apparently have in common. Maybe there's an actual customer for the abominations they stuff those things with.
Thank you for being the fashion police and letting us all know what looks good. I literally had no idea what I liked until you came around to tell me.

I think I'd have more respect for you OP if you were against ALL skimpy armor. But nope. Just stuff for men,
Yeah I'm a straight male and here you will see my Jedi Guardian and his girlfriend Kira... Them both wearing the same skimpy outfit is awesome.

Quite the charmer, aren't you?

Just because you don't like something doesn't mean anyone that does is a moron.

I could imagine this for Elara, but Risha ?
No, Risha is someone who would wear anything if this makes her getting closer to her goals !
