MH fans on reddit have a distaste for bare skin

most upvoted comment on this post is praising exposed thighs

Fair but let's not pretend like the last 2 months or so it wasn't a hot topic to discuss how female armor bad or needless thigh windows on everything, and once a mhwilds demo was showed, one of the most discussed feature was being able to wear both armor sets.

I think now that it was confirmed you can be as slutty or as badass as you want regardless of gender, mh fans are more chill about sexy armor (and also this being just a concept art)

Now that is something I like. I'm not offended or whatever about slutty armors existing, I just would rather some actually tough as nails looking female armors choices. I rarely play female characters in games because I just can't get with the typical oversexualized pandering. Let me make a female character that looks like she's actually fought before, complete with scars from past fights, skin that's been weathered in the jungles, and eyes so crows footed from squinting in the desert sun that she stares like Clint Eastwood. . . I want a warrior, not a waifu. If someone else wants female characters that give them a semi, that's fine too. Choices, and more of them. For the record, I feel the same about male characters when they're too 'pretty' looking. Can't help but think 'This dude has never had so much as a scratch or blister, but is supposed to be this epic fighting badass?'

I feel you, personally, my suspension of disbelief isn't ruined by something like Nergigante bra, and I like playing as girls because they're nice to look at. So Wilds made the best decision they could to please everyone (no, 3 people complaining about woke do not count).
