Wow you go away for a bit of tiffin and callisthenics and the thread becomes a battle of the sexes how did this happen the OP didn't even mention women. Still think its a damn cool idea in the right situation say your'e left for dead on the field of battle stripped by looters covered in blood with only the fire of hatred in your gut to warm you, with shaking fingers you inscribe runes of protection and warding in your own blood as the hound warriors of old once did and set out. Or not.

Maybe make all armor models the same for everyone, just account for the breast size factor.

Other then that, when a male and female warrior stand next to one another, they should be completely indifferent

The only thing that tells them apart is their voice.

That's how Bethesda's latest two (FO3 and Oblivion) worked, especially the medium+ level armors. I think the armor should be feminised, because a woman's armor would clearly fit differently to a male's armor, but I don't think it should be made less protective.

It just looks silly.

Well.... bringing Bathesda into the argument is playing with fire. Bathesda has always been extremely mature in their games (not mature by kids standards, but wise mature). They completely eliminate the issue of sexuality by making it irrelvant in the game. Whether you are a guy or  a gal, TES almost doesn't really care. i don't know how its handeled in Fallout 3 (never completed the game).

 I just want nice mage robes please  thats all I ask.

I still don't get the whole chainmail bikini thing. Can't we have armors that are both functional and tasteful, while offering some eye candy as well?
If you want scanity clad armor and/or some sex appeal, why chainmail bikini? Why not something like Dalish male armor? If the female version looked a bit more like the male one, it'd still be attractive AND functional.
Here's an example of what I would consider revealing yet tastefull armor that still offers protection:

He has enough protection on the limbs to keep them defended during combat and the absence of much body armor allows him to move and attack at quicker speeds. It looks good and is efficient at the same time. Same armor (plus a cloth, maybe light leather or fur vest for modesty) would look pretty damn awesome on females as well, without being ridiculous.

Besides the black widow perk, the game really is gender-less.

Also, I'm still laughing at how fan girls thought I was a sexist pig because they assumed i wanted sexy armor for women obligatory...when I said it was an option.

Fan girls...I gotta tell you.

to the above image, once again, budget cuts...but cool pic.

Smartass: I am amused that there are some who are generally opposed to revealing armor, but would make an exception if the character had a reason. As though observers would be thinking "Oh, it's a cultural thing? Then I shant be titilated." Would the character have to make the viewer aware before the distinction could be made, so as to avoid some sort of quantum state of arousal/unarousal? Perhaps a pamphlet entitled “Upon my Preference for Showing the Goods.”

Although it would allow me to write an epic thong. W’dge of the Chasind has a ring to it. And not much else. Badum-TISH.

Serious: I’m sure we’ll have opportunity for sexiness that both appeases and offends depending on your nature, but in general, the more armored you are, the more armor you are wearing. That’s a design choice to support the mechanics/appearance of the IP and give clarity to players. And Origins did have some juggling between the benefits of mobility versus raw protection, so we'll probably have similar tradeoffs this time around.

I don't really care how much actual protection such clothes/armor would give if they are included, mage spells and other class abilities can defend the character anyway, and I am sure if there were such clothes I would use them atleast occassionally or for a single full walkthrough for the fun of it. And seriously: Who doesn't want/like them just shouldn't wear them, that is all. (although forcefully being thrown into an arena with such clothes would be a fun event ingame)

To me is not about being forced to wear them, is about a supossedly realistic setting having that kind of  "armor"
as working. It is the equivalent of going into battle in underwear. At least with Morrigan she wasn´t supposed to go in melee, at least in human form.

I already found the cleaveage in light armors in Origins silly.

...as long there is magic, undead, demons, darkspawn, dragons, and golems and aslong there is no swimming/climbing/riding I don't care about realism, If there will be such armors I will use them, if there will be huge swords twice your size I will use those too just to scare the hell out of the enemy if for nothing else.

I believe we came to the point where both sides once again can agree that the only thing they can agree on is that they disagree.

Are you SERIOUS?!! If you don't want to wear the armor then don't! I'm not fond of scantily-clad males or females but I don't see a problem with why others shouldn't be able to enjoy it. Everyone does not like to wear armor, and that goes for me. I'll dress my players in casual clothing in a second. People wanted more armor, clothing etc. so the devs are trying to give it. This game isn't just for those of us who want to wear armor.(though my mages wear their mage robes). Even if a teammate is wearing skimpy armor, yo can still *gasp* change them into something else.

Now this is actually pretty good. In fact it some of the most tasteful revealing armor I've seen in a long time.
Now if we could just make it fully equal for the women of this race as well then that would be good for their group.

Or in other words.
Amount of Mens Armor = Amount of Womens Armor
for that profession and group/guild/clan/etc

That kind of thinking led to cleavages in zero atmosphere

if you talk about Mass Effect 2 or somesuch: If there are personal and ship shields that can keep out bullets/shrapnels/explosions/laser beams, then they sure are able to keep air in too

Not to mention that while having an armored mage is one of my most fun preferred game styles in most games, it can also be fun to have the opposite, unarmored warriors, or just have a semi-nude mage, noone could complain about a mage wearing metal bikini atleast as it doesn't even hinder hand movements as a robe might.

Is that a joke? Completely exposed waist up good armor?

It seems to be inspired by germanic/gladiator armor, and fyi there is armor on the left side, just barely visible due to char stance

When I was in mage high school, I dabbled in blood magic, but that's beneath me now.

I liked the chainmail and plate armor in DA:O and DA:A for the female knights. So I would be happy if they'll offer more armor of this kind in DA2. More variety would be appreciated. ( Not just color changes, plate armor with only one shoulder pad or without and so on) I dont need some tight chain/plate armor which only "advantage" is showing the proportions to your enemies and mates. The only thing I didnt like in DA:O was the fact, that a female warrior couldnt wear such an armor and a big two-handed sword/axe with her skinny body, especially arms. A little more shaped body would be appreciated. Not a monster like in Fable 2, when your heroine reached max. at strength abilities, but a bit more muscular.
