Also I don't remember her being horny at all. She looked like she was dressed by a horny boy, but she seemed to act completely oblivious to any and all come-ons or innuendo.

Yeah she dresses sexy but the boys don't do or say gross things around her and treat her with respect and I'm ok with that

Sexy is fine but like, gods man, they could have demonstrated the smallest amount of restraint instead of just making her look as trashy as humanly possible. Just my opinion.

I could appreciate Kuja as a character if they didn't make him look like a total slut.

These things aren't made in a vacuum and comparing Tidus's shorts to a character who is 110% some 13 year old's masturbatory fantasy is a bit rich. It's not even interesting in anyway or unique to the FF setting, it's just slightly less modest Daisy Duke with big fake tits. I don't really think it's weird to point out how lovely and lazy a design it is.

Also, Kuja's not really doing any mechanical handiwork and all that to warrant a more practical outfit, he can be as 'Renaissance Age male stripper' as he wants. His Dissidia alt costumes are consistently way better, though.

It's just dumb whataboutism anyway. I'm criticizing her design because I'm playing that game right now and it stands out.

Cindy's outfit is the dumbest thing and constantly just an awkward wtf every time it's on screen. Like hell if she was wearing something sexy but like actual people wear or sexy but high fashion so it looks FF it'd be fine but she's wearing a sexy mechanic halloween costume. It just looks silly. Also loving lol at bringing 'well what about objectifying men huh?' Jesus people.

Re: Kuja, does anybody have a good take on why that design is the way it is? Because using it as a counterexample is kinda weird, given that people have been making fun of it for being goofy for a very long time. It stands out even more to me because FF9 actually has a lot of cool, intricate costume and design work while FF15... doesn't (it's like everyone shops at the same black leather boutique).
|
# ? Apr 23, 2019 09:26 |

Because FF9 is the one that stuck closest to Amano's original designs and that's just what his stuff looks like. FF15 is deliberately going for an Americana vibe which why all the guys have normal looking clothes and Cindy looks like she's from a softcore porn channel

They're just like wearing shirts and pants from what I remember? Outside of colour co-ordinating to look like a goth band I don't remember anything outlandish.

I'm gonna go ahead and split the difference here and say yes, their costumes are more realistic/naturalistic than any other Final Fantasy or most videogames in general, but they would also still stand out in a lot of places (their clothes look expensive and feature a disproportionate amount of leather, even aside the colormatching; they all have a "character" - Ignis is sharp and professional, Prompto's punk - but they're super coordinated in a way that's also odd). Which honestly makes sense. They're aristocrats and elite soldiers slumming it. I just think that palette being shared by the entire major cast - other than Cindy they basically never deviate from black, white, and shades of dull red - is boring.

In my head I'm imagining a Yakuza style FFXV with protagonists dressing in sharp tuxedos and the game takes place mostly in urban areas. I've never played Yakuza but totally would if they did a FF themed spinoff or something.

Yakuza has more traditional JRPG in its gameplay than FFXV does. Hell yeah, I'd play a proper 'Yakuza meets FF' game. The bonus superboss would be GilgaMajima and it would be glorious.

Amon's a little harder to find a portmanteau with a famous Final Fantasy heavy-hitter. Amonmega? UltAmoncia? I need to do some thinking to figure this out, but GilgaMajima is something that obviously jumps out and absolutely needs to be a thing in this totally fictional video game.
