Drakania looks badass.
The degree of anger some of you have towards non-skimpy armor is amazing.
I really doubt there are many people looking forward to covered up outfits in BDO, I'm sorry. I know dozens of men who play and they're only interested in the slut ones. Same goes for the few girls I know playing it, too - they're actually even more vocal about it. Most of them outright refuse to play Drakania because of how crap she looks atm. Overall, if you are interested in covered up armor BDO isn't the game for you, nor is any Korean MMO. It's madness to try and steer it in the direction of WoW or ESO or some of that crap.
And yes, BDO's staple and most KMMOs staple is sexy outfits for the women, so yes, we don't need COVERED UP ONES, we need an already well-established and solidified trend to not buckle under the demands of a few questionable individuals who probably shouldn't be playing BDO in the first place if oversexualization isn't their thing. Please don't try and make the game cater to your "tastes", let's call them as such, BDO has always been something entirely else. If YOU want covered up outfits, the solution is extremely simple, they should do what they did with Corsair, a PROPER toggle which puts on / removes her undershirt to hide / show her breasts. At the moment Drakania has only, and only, the fully covered up armor - hence there is no choice and nothing to pick from.
And that's the problem, the problem occurs when player choice is taken away in favor of loud minorities of players.
BDO is one of the last bastions (the last probably tbh)0 which didn't cater to outraged creatures and puritans, Lost Ark west already bit the dust because of Amazon and exactly the reasoning of censorship (together with all other issues the west release has, of course). This need to be nipped in the bud before it escalates.
PA, please reconsider whatever this is going forward, because it won't end well as far as support for BDO goes - and outfits are your main income, we all know it. Please don't ruin what you have anymore than you already have through other bad decisions. Either stay true to the aesthetics and design of the game, or give us an OPTION (!) of what to wear. Do not take this away with Drakania and future female classes.
drakania doesnt look crap it is just they forget to put underwear for her :^(
so i need to go in the character creation to see her underwear :^(
so she look fine, i suppose we need to wait several months before to see nice thing for her, anyway her default armor look better than her $$$$outfit XD
Amish BDO == Shai, of course :)
Speaking of underwear, I'm a bit surprised that this new class was released without any in the pearl shop. That empty slot underneath all the gear feels - breezy, somehow.
Same for accessories. I thought PA was into selling things...
I don't mind the new outfit, but they're being assholes for putting it for 80$. Sell the outfit separately the same way they did all the other all classes outfits. I don't need the items in your "bundle". Since when were bundles in pearl shop anyway? Its just scummy to me
The Drakania outfit (Exclaire) is sold separately, and as part of one bundle (oops, not two, that was the other outfit), and also as part of the BS pass.
I goofed and bought it twice, didn't see it as part of the BS pass. My bad for not checking.
edit: And maybe this is a reference to the Oblivion outfit? If so, yeah, that's a problem.
In my opinion every class should have appearance choices to suit different players. If the player wants to look sexy, they should have a choice. If the player wants to look armored, they too should have a choice. There really is no reason I can think of to cater to one prefernce only.

Yes, but the problem is that they are taking some ridiculous turn towards fully clothed female chars. Corsair's original outfit was fully covered, if you didn't know you can remove cape you were basically left with that crap. Now Drakania is fully covered without even the option to look sexy / revealing like females in kMMOs usually do.
The default for kMMOs is the oversexualized look on females. If they want to add covered up options, that's fine, but the default should start true to what it always has been. At the moment it's the other way around. I really hope this doesn't take a turn for the worse.
I stumbled upon this thread totally random, and wow... the angry comments from men not being allowed to objectify women (albeit pixel-made) is astounding... I wonder how you treat the real women in your life.

totally agree on you..
this topic shows huge mental problems.. full of weebs and simps.. go out talk to real women and learn to respect them you sickheads..
as if it's a huge deal having some more normal looking clothes suddenly in the game to classes and not that full nudity..
u want that game to look realistic and authentic, than deal with that fact that real combat women wear full armor to protect themselves in reality..
Just roll DK
