There are a lot of games I won’t play because they over sexy the female armor to the point it’s just laughably unrealistic and negatively distracting.
I love seeing sexy women, don’t get me wrong, like Aloy always had the midriff-exposing gear skin on so I could see her belly during conversations, but that gear was still practical. Maybe risky for one of the more vulnerable areas, but something I could see existing irl.
Fanservice games that over-sexy the women just scream “this game isn’t very good and is banking on teen/ya boys being horny”. Not a good look.
There’s a tradeoff between sexiness and realism, and different people like different amounts of armor best. I like fanservice in general, but I’ve certainly seen “armor” that even I think is going too far.
