WBGrock Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 Just wondering why it is whenever there is a Full on armor replacement mod, it's almost always bikini mail? Not that i mind bikini mail, it just keeps hitting me from a logical perspective that's all. :wallbash: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kieranfoy Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 This isn't really a file request. Maybe you should have put it in General Mod Talk. To answe what I think your question is, chainmail bikini's are, indeed, useless except as rather uncomfortable lingerie, but they're hot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaijaRii Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 Because most sweaty nerds don't realize how attractive less skin can be. This is my favorite clothing mod, It is very sexy, but it doesn't make your Companion look like a tramp, and if I have a daughter in the future I wouldn't kill her if I saw her wearing this stuff. http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=19009 And I think the female version of the stealth armor in this Mod when the character is idle and isnt wearing the mask and hood is very attractive... and there isn't any skin below the neck. http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=8440 Leave some stuff to the imagination modders... this isn't supposed to be some white-boy japan-o-phile will-never-have-sex-in-his-life fetish game.

Vagrant0 Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 Just wondering why it is whenever there is a Full on armor replacement mod, it's almost always bikini mail? Not that i mind bikini mail, it just keeps hitting me from a logical perspective that's all. :wallbash:Because the chainmail bikini has become standard fare in nearly every depiction of a female in fantasy garb. I believe that this trend was originally started with some guys artistic works back in the 70's and 80's, and has been a constant feature in nearly every RPG and MMO since. If memory serves, both UO and EQ 1 had female characters wearing armor that left little to the imagination, and that was back in the 1990's. http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main...ain.BreastPlate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WoogieMonster Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 .....white-boy japan-o-phile will-never-have-sex-in-his-life.... I believe "weeaboo" is the word you were looking for, and I think it might also be meant as a derogatory term. I tried to look it up, but when I found the information, the voice in my head said I'd get dumber for reading it, so I closed the tab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unavi Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 Well, the Books about Conan the barbarian were written before the 70's and if i'm not wronk there are lots of hot babes in skimpy armors in those stories.If we get even more tehnical, and look on the sheer mod creation we can see that making a bikini armor is mush simpler that a full plate complex armor. Heck, my first armors where all skimpy, but i never realesed them tough i was tempted by the big number of downloads they would probably get. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nexus Set Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Chainmail bikinis do serve some purpose in combat, mainly, for misdirection. As kieranfoy puts it, 'cause their hot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So true and so sad though.... :( But yeah "sex sells" as they say, these types of games aren't aimed towards women...women play these games, but the ratio must be very minimal that they don't care. Atleast in Oblivion, the female versions of the armours were not like that off the bat, I would have been quite angry heh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
