Player avatars....

[Nyrva]

OK, maybe this is a rhetorical question. So when can we use personal avatars in the game? I like the one I got on the forum way better than blue elves. If the elf is blue, maybe they better try and breathe!

 

[Iyapo1]

Players are not able to use personal avatars in the game.

 

[Huor]

That would be cool.

Bleh ...I really like the lack of nekkid/mostly nekkid images of people in the game.

I agree. Sadly the industry seems to think "nekkid/mostly nekkid" images sell the game -- and it might be true -- but I've yet to see anybody verify it. The history of gaming, in general, I think, got stuck in the "teenage boy" of the arcade game days and has focused on the likes of that group in their visual representations of women in particular, ever since. I think it is not healthy for young men to be fed a diet of "nekkid/mostly nekkid" "well endowed" women as if that's the only kind they should find attractive and the only reason they should find a woman attractive. Sigh. 'Nuff said.

Look at what just happened with Blizzard/Activision, and unfortunately that type of behavior/thinking is relatively rampant. Until objectification is stamped out, women's armor will continue to be 3 to 4 triangles of cloth and some dental floss.

All video games are marketed to men. Nekkid women sells whether they are 14 or 74. All countries. All games. Elvenar included.

And thus pissing off half their potential player base. No matter their delusions, women do indeed game. I've got the D&D, Pathfinder and Steam libraries to prove it.

You dont need anything to prove it. It's a given. They don't care.

If that's not protective enough in a battle situation, try adding a gold cuff or two. That'll do it.

I want to see Women have a fair representation in the game. I want to see a male charcater with 1 triangle of clothing, dental floss and golf socks!

I do not want to see a man degraded. Let's stop dressing everyone in dental floss and loin"ish" cloths.

More than half. Every time Inno published information on the player base, there have always been a good deal more female than male players in Elvenar.
