In any case double standards that crap on paying customers are a bad idea.
I'm not surprised by this, I'm simply pointing out the hypocrisy of hammering players for something they themselves indulge in.

Choose your own criticism:
"That outfit contains unique items that I can't use in my costume - it isn't fair!"
"That outfit looks like it was thrown together in the tailor - the devs are lazy!"
Also, these 20 dollar bills are slightly crumpled.

Why MA ratings should be changed from stars to "like" or "dislike"
A better algorithm for ordering MA arcs
I see the chronology of Primal vs. Praetorian Earth continues to get more garbled. We've been told Primal Shalice Tilman is over 80 years old, while Praetorian Tilman seems to be substantially younger (or would be, if her body were still alive). Don't even get me started on how Praetorian Hamidon appeared several decades before Primal Hamidon.
These things wouldn't bother me if I thought they were concious story decisions by the devs, but I'm pretty sure that they're just more examples of not checking the story bible for inconsistencies before adding pages to it.
Still, some nice background stuff.

Actually, isn't that because the Praetorian governments used nukes a lot more in their wars?

So what you're saying is you want Going Rogue to add a "push-up" slider?

EDIT. And how come Mother Mayhem gets to have a realsitic looking chest, but we don't? That's exactly the way the chest slider should shape them - that'd better not be her unique NPC costume feature, otherwise I'll grow wrathful  |

Well, that, and a "push in" slider too - or just revamp how the current slider calculates chest expansion, so we don't have the huge separation we get right now - it just doesn't look natural or relaistic, especially seeing how Mother Mayhem has her chest shaped now.

Screw it. I'm not going to be happy until we get an open letter from the Dead or Alive people asking us to please tone it down and "think of the children".

"Jiggle" would be a waste of dev time, as would "temperature"
And we do have "push left" and "push right" right now - the problem is that it happens at the same time, which is why we have such un-natural separation.

That would be a question for Marketing actually. Clearly losing the T rating would be a marketing failure, but anything that doesn't go over that line... well, Aion is getting press both for its graphics and its graphics if you get my drift.|

And really, it'd be hard to claim that this would be uncharacteristically prurient in a game that has already released a paid content pack containing one tux, one wedding dress, and four types of lingerie.
But anyway. What were we talking about? Mother Mayhem, right. I'm sure she's a nice lady. For two reasons.

if players are expected to exercise due diligence or get generic'ed you'd expect a corporation with a lot more on the line than a name and costume to do the same.

Have you looked at the Witch tops or some others like the tank top? Its more shading than geometry, but they look closer to Mother Mayhem's chest than most of the other tops do. From the screenshot, I can't tell if Mother Mayhem has any really distinct geometry, or if her chest appearance isn't mostly just clever shading as well.

I like purple so she rocks in my book.
total kick to the gut
This is like having Ra's Al Ghul show up at your birthday party.
I wonder if the "Rogue Psychic" who killed her was Praetorian Clockwork King ... or maybe Young Penelope Yen.

Hmmm... Ever notice HOW the GR updates are being doled out?
Calvin Scott fights against Praetoria and the Ghouls
Marauder's role is to fight against the Syndicate (and the Resistance)
Mother Mayhem is the leader of the Seers
I bet the next update will feature Neuron and the Praetorian Clockwork!
Who's sensing the pattern?

TO THE END!Villains are those who dedicate their lives to causing mayhem. Villians are people from the planet Villia!
Must disagree!
Mother Mayhem > Porn!
Mother Mayhem > Microsoft Word
Mother Mayhem > Champions Online
Mother Mayhem > World of Warcraft
..... wait!
EVERYTHING > World of Warcraft!
to TO THE END!Villains are those who dedicate their lives to causing mayhem. Villians are people from the planet Villia!
But the fierce enforcement followed the Marvel issues, however, right? Or I am just mis-remembering it all?
Oh, and on topic, I wish the the updated GR info was loading properly for me here at work during my self appointed random break time.
