Ironic, considering how many religious paintings have nude women in them.
They have plenty of naked men in them also , your point being?

That it's kind of ridiculous for people to be so damn prudish, especially when they bring religion into it. The fact that violence is somehow more acceptable just makes it worse.
There are also some Chevaliers with titty pauldrons.
*shrug* Andrastians like their messiah figure nude and golden is all. Can't say i blame them.

There is nothing wrong with the naked body either , its not like Bioware went over the top with body portions either.
people who complain seem to have issues , the game is rated for 18 yrs and plus . if people feel uncomfortable with boobs at that age its worrying.
Also historically Celtic religions used alot of naked bodies in sculptures which enspired some of the lore ^^
I imagine it's the same deal as the semi-naked guy on real-life top-tier crafted items.
lol
have my like good sir, this was hilarious

I wanted to post something here, some clever insight into the cultural tradition of feminine beauty in art or something somesuch, but after this post... I don't think I can contribute anything anymore.
Brilliant. Thanks.

These guys took the word Mangina and took it to another level of worship of females.
OP seems more like a conservative religious type , or maybe its the horseshoe theory coming into affect
I think he's upset because it doesn't quite fit the qunari type design. If you consider how little there is in the way of cultural qunari stuff there is in DAI, there is nill.

As to be 'Uncomfortable' ?
I'm neither religious nor conservative, not that it matters. And it's not about naked bodies in general, I have no problem with the sex scenes and whatnot. It's the literal objectification of the female form that I dislike. When I started this thread I knew there would be plenty of people who think that's fantastic and possibly gamergate style responses. Thanks to all those people for proving my point about why the casual objectification of women is a problem.
On it being Andraste, that works for the Archon staff but not the Sten grip. Qunari don't follow Andraste so there isn't any good lore based justification there.
for the record, I am pro naked woman on a grip.

With the RNG of this game... how many people will ever actually get to fondle err... SEE the nudes of Andraste on their weapons?
Malcolm's Honor was my favorite staff in DA2 (I always equipped Bethany with it) and was glad to see it return in Inquisition. It was worth it to kill the last ice dragon for it.

See, thing is...
You're talk about "objectifying the female body" based on a replica on a pixelated weapon in a game, so this why many people don't take you seriously...
Also, women have boobs, hips, and vaginas. They are beautiful things, and completely natural/normal. If I was to complain about this subject, I could point to worse cases in gaming.. however, I'm not inclined. I enjoy my life way too much, thank you. ![]()
I don't have an issue with this "sexual objectifying of women", but it has to be within context... and I'm sorry, but I'm really not getting the problem.
I'm trying really hard here not to be a D-bag. ![]()
Look on the bright side. We can't equip our horses with nudie girl mudflaps.
Why do people think it's Andraste anyway?
Art has naked women in it - thats ok
Movies have naked women it it : thats ok
Literature has descriptions of naked women in it : thats ok
Video Games have naked women in them : GET THE PITCH FORKS , they are objectifying womyn . These gamers can interact and control these poor women taking away their agency! it must be stopped!
Grow the **** up , its a rated 18 game. And even then we as a species have been enjoying the naked body for most of recorded history . The women in DA are not overly sex hyped . Most of the main female characters have more than just 'Good looking bodies' they have other traits which are more prominent.
I swear some people will only be happy when all female characters in games will be wearing religious type fitting clothing like nun's and other religions.....
