EVE General Discussion

This is unfair to say. They might have been attached to their character/portrait under the old system, which had – for most of the races – a very different feel to it and now have been dealt a character, with a look they don’t enjoy as much and have to live with it now.

Not everyone was lucky and made a good cut with the change to the new system and I can understand, why people ask for it.

Kill la Kill outfits.

... just saying

Edit: Oops the date passed.

That explains a lot! ;)

There's something I miss to grasp here... you mean that "looking pregnant" is a bad thing? Bell-like clothing is not new nor unusual, and it haves the strange property of making real women (you know, with hips) look good.

Pregnant?

No hell, hot!

I think I agree with Karkur and Indah here. It does not remind me in any way of a pregnancy.

The apparel has overlapping hems like a suit of plate armor might, and in certain angles it looks like it is protruding when what you are seeing are the the very edges of the hems sticking out. Doesn't look bloated to me, it looks durable and has a unique shape.

the thought of commissioning a leather outlaw jacket makes my inner cosplayer very, very happy.


the difference here is that suit has V shapes in it, while the outlaw apron has the opposite.

Her form is that of a Christmas tree. Oh, ok nevermind. That explains it. Because Christmas.

(pssst: the reason that picture supports my argument so well is that I'm right.)

BTW, I'm totally down with pregnancy being a thing. Marriage, too. Divorce and child support could be new professions.


The first one is called an A-line, and you wouldn't find it made of leather. If the outlaw women's jackets were supposed to have a cute look, it failed at that too. The second is a miniskirt and neither one has a circle pattern in the stomach area.

you should probably leave the fashion design calls to the artists. maybe.

edit: I hate to pack so much negativity in so few posts, but another thing that bothers me is the catsuits, particularly the shoulder piece. I think it has the same feel as Bill Nighy's outfit in Love, Actually. It's a mix of 50s sci-fi and boogie nights, and it's begging for bell-bottoms.

the rocket dress looks like something a girl would wear to a middle school dance.

I like a lot of the other things in EVE, so I guess what I should do is mention the virtual wardrobe I keep for my characters, becuase I like the designs. Commissar Kate has a wardrobe three times as extensive as mine. I bought AUR for this expansion and I've redeemed PLEX for AUR in the past, purely for personal use rather than selling on market. Clothing items make the best gifts for players like myself and k8... it means a lot to me that clothing is happening in EVE.

I'm just trying to be thorough in mentioning things that could be improved, in my opinion.

In those cases where things are bad (in my opinion), I'm disappointed that poor designs make it into the game. Unless Karkur was just saying that she likes the design for political reasons, it is downright disturbing when management is one of the roadblocks.

Another thing that most people don't understand is that working with art and visual things does not make a person an artist. Most people get by as technicians. There is a very big difference between an artist and a technician, and compared to technicians, artists are rare. That's basically how bad design calls fall through the cracks and become finished products, rather than being halted and fixed.

I love the clothes in EVE. I just think there are some items that could be better.

The technician thing is the reason we still play Excel in space after ten years.

Alien film made good usage of innate fear of being pregnant combining it with facehuggers and aliens bursting thru the chests.

Some inspiration for new hairstyles.

Not every piece of clothing have to be pretty (shocking).
Some pieces are just practical.
