It'd be far easier for me to accept the idea that the Devs just don't think it's worth doing time/benefit wise than to think they have something against potential misogyny.

The fact that player characters can easily dress themselves up slutty and RP far more nasty things than what little Johnny can dream up with his female MM pets has always been laughable to me.

Also if females can get the darned tuxedo, I'm sure they can at least get some more coats. Maybe the developers felt like males would be getting less, then. But then there's the whole Females can wear male clothes but males in female clothes is...
Er...
Kilts are the closest we'll get.


If not, then I will not rest until my 50(+1) blaster can wear a frilly bra!

Also SLIGHTLY off topic on what I'm about to say, but I was hoping the gunslinger outfit would add a new trench coat >_>. I like the male jacket, but it's kind of silly to let trench coat hog its own category like that. And yes I know it's because of coat tails etc. to make back details unusable for clipping reasons and what not.

At that period in time, any woman showing that much skin would be known as one thing and one thing only.

For accurate period stuff, try something a bit more realistic ;





that make the point clear enough?

I thought I would draw your attention to this thread:

... in which players are lamenting the way many costume parts are "pre-tinted" and thus cannot be colored the way we players would like. That is, sections of the parts have their own color tinting which mixes with any color selected by the player to produce an intermediate color which is not at all desireable. As pointed out in that thread, this often makes any attempt to colorize those parts come out ugly, and makes it difficult to match those parts up with parts from other sets.

Please fix this.

One problem is how to address all 6 MM Power Set's. Demons, Bots, and to a lesser degree Zombies require more than just costume designs on a basic character model. For the others, I'd love to see them hold a costume contest for it. "Henchmen themes", and then give out some swag to the winners in exchange for the right to use their design.

Also there needs to be some overall compensation for dealing with the headache you have for controlling them due to their wacky ai.

But, all we ever hear are excuses why it can't be done or why it hasn't been done yet.

Enough of the politically correct BS and let us have some choices. Just because some people *might* abuse something does not mean that there isn't a way to make it work. Come to think of it, doesn't the player base already do a decent job of reporting copyright infringement and other stuff that is an obvious violation of the EULA? I am sure that the players could manage sending off petitions for people who abuse their pets too much.

He suggested making a thread about it in the forums, which I am doing now, a week later, wanting to let all of the other Pummit threads simmer a bit.

What would you like to see in a Rularuu costume pack? What would you not like to see, what emotes, auras, powers?

To me it looks worse for the female mastermind to be gang banged by the henchmen. What works for one can work for the other. The devs need to stop with this double standard approach.

Given that, and the temp powers limited value, get what ever you like. If you aren't melee focused, tho, get Neme and Wand first, then either power you hope to rarely use last...

If you are are a melee type, get whichever, as it is probably on your chain between a real power and Brawl..
