Why not pixel "nude" models rather than force them to dress in underwear?

Ok, so I get that full frontal nudity is out of the question, but what I don't get if why the models have to be dressed in underwear even if you strip them bare naked in the charachter screens. I mean, wouldn't be better to have them completely naked on the inventory screen and just pixel out the "sensitive parts"? Even "The Sims" did this and Sims has an age-rating for children which is something DA  does not have (nor the majority of Bioware's RPGs for that matter). I'm not saying we can't have underwear in the game, but why not have them as a part of an equippable set undergarment that can potentially add perks/enhancements etc. Kinda bugs me that the protagonist always has the same set of underwear in my games that s/he never seems to change and that are forceably equipped no matter what..

Correct me if I'm wrong but I seem to remember that Saint's Row also opted for this solution and "pixelled" their player charachter models rather than forced undergarments on them.

I believe Gaider has said before (and please correct me if I'm wrong, David):

Bioware doesn't do nudity because Bioware doesn't want to.


This is indeed the case. It's odd that someone would think the only reason one wouldn't have nudity is either because someone forced them not to have it or because they were scared to include it-- as if "tasteful" wasn't a factor. Says a lot about those people, I think. I'm not a big fan of the Dragon Age Underwear ™ myself, but there are other ways to avoid that rather than going to all-out nudity.

That would probably fall under the "other ways to avoid that rather than going to all-out nudity"

Anyways, I always thought it was weird to see the Underwear thing DA:O and DA2


Wasn't DA2 primarily fading to black as well?
