@epicgamerorigem@Derangeddoomer No, I have yet to have the chance to properly look into it. All I really know is that its a mid to high fantasy setting. The main road block being I do not know the name of the game.
@epicgamerorigem@Derangeddoomer They are also using muskets and Pikes. That is around the time most military were phasing out armored infantry in favor of riflemen. And if someone got close enough to hit you when you have a pike you fucked up big time.
@Bhaalslittleguy@Derangeddoomer That should be even more of a reason to worry about armor. If its the Japanese pig orcs, I think the last thing a woman wants to wear in a fight against rape monster #12 is a glorified bikini.
@xtibarionx@Derangeddoomer And the armor and weapons are still relatively realistic and would function. Valiere's armor being a notable example of this. It is still fantasy plate, but it is well done and fits her character.
@xtibarionx@Derangeddoomer Its not the fan service itself, its just not done well or in a tasteful manner.
One of the mangas im reading right now "Teisou Gyakuten Sekai no Doutei Henkyou Ryoushu Kishi" is almost nothing but fan service, but everything in it still makes sense in the context we are given.
@hopelesshikari_@Derangeddoomer It still has an actual edge on it, just because a short sword is a "pointy weapon" doesn't mean you only thrust with it.
@epicgamerorigem@Derangeddoomer Yeah, royalty and nobles in an honor duel they'd pussy out of the second it got serious. But a mercenary or solder? Half plate, chain mail, gambison at least.
