I hate that show with a burning passion. They just pick the most popular one and have them win.

Yeah, I would. Regardless, the male-vs-female sexuality debate is going to derail the topic quickly.

Agreed, then don't start it Saibh.


Wait. You're blaming me?

Anywho, once again. I doubt the armors are static, so the whole point is moot. I for one will be keeping her outfit.

Not an expert here but if I remember correctly pirates and various sea-going people actually don't wear armor for the most part because its cumbersume and slows them down too much, protective features aside.

Basically when your out on the ocean; whether in combat or not being able to manuever quickly and easily is better than being a human tank. That and probably salt rusting it and whatever technical stuff I'm not thinking of.

Like falling in the water?  :D

Pirate 1: "Help, I'm drowning!"
Pirate 2:  "No kidding, you're wearing a bunch of armor.  Why would you wear that, anyway?"
Pirate 1: " I didn't want to be stabbed or shot."
Pirate 2: "Not such a great idea now, huh?"

Oh, there are little things that always get me. Like samurai vs Vikings. I don't care who wins--but they never address issues like katanas not actually being that great of weapons, particularly because the iron in Japan was of pretty poor quality.

Good point.  If armor is fully customizable, I'll just go with whatever has the best stats.  I'm not going to bother with what would be better in reality because, well, this isn't reality.

I'm assuming there'll be rogue-friendly leather armor in DA2. In fact, I'm hoping BioWare listened to the complaints of us rogue-lovers and put in more light armor than there was in DA:O. Simple enough to put Isabela into something less revealing.

is what I expected rouges would be wearing. Since she is a pirate captain, I was expecting more of a captain attire. Something that would get her respect.


She's a pirate captain, not a military officer.  A pirate captain would be respected through skill in battle and success in making them rich, not what they wore.


Well it's more than just their knowledge of how to capture the goods, with the least damage to those ships. They are also elected into the position based on their ability to control the ship and crew. I would imagine wearing clothes that give you the appearance of  dominance would fall in to controlling the crew.

Contrary to popular opinion most sailor could not swim, plus most were wearing loads of equipment & ropes & powderhorns & such

Also i we can put Leather Armor on her, I can pretend this new art direction isn't causing me anxiety as she'll look less different from her first appearance.

See, the problem with Deadliest Warrior that I have is that in the end, people still hold onto whatever ideas they have regarding what is "better."  Whether it's the people at home watching the show, or the experts demonstrating the weapons, they all fall back on some sort of reason why their choice would win, even if the data says otherwise.

If she wins, she wins.  Historic pirate captains - at least during the glory years of it - only took real command leading up to and during battle.  Every other time they were fairly democratic vessels.

Furthermore I really don't think the modesty of ones outfit really has much of anything to do with one's command potential.  

There are far sillier outfits in DA and ME to nitpick over than Isabelas, in my opinion.

True, they believed learning to do so was akin to tempting fate.

Not really.

So we were told that chainmail bikins were never going to be included in DA2, understandable. But what's with having Isabela wear an outfit so short that we can see butt every time she jumps? Or is this the current fad? Side boobs for 2009 and butts for 2011.


because it's hawt

I can only imagine what DA3 would have in store to attract teenagers.


Gazy and wet codpieces.

Did I mention the male love interest for DA3 would be a qunari? There will be more threads on what we learn of their anatomy than Krogans testicles and Qunari horns combined.

So wearing even more equipment would just make it even harder to move around, especially when ships aren't known for providiing a lot of space.  But who am I to argue with someone who decides that they're an expert?

The person may have the skills but not everyone will respect you based on that alone. You also have to give the appearance of being in control. Which, I believe, clothes play a role.

They maybe sillier but they would be considered off topic in a DA2 forum.

Never said I was an expert, if you have a problem with my information show me a counter argument that is factual sound
