It's aesthetics. All the best looking armors only look good when really zoomed in to see the miniscule ornate details like on Malenia's valkyrie-like helm and Vargram helm. When looked at from standard distance when playing, they look unremarkabable ESPECIALLY when only staring at the BACK/BEHIND of your character for 99% of the time. Why does Malenia's armor look so much more beautiful in the opening cutscene than in-game???Boss armors never look a fraction as good on the player as they do on their respective boss. They're always severe downgrades visually, especially Messmer. And for whatever reason the color pallette in this game is really, really bad and makes alot of things duller than they should be.The worst thing I see is people posting mixed armor sets that only slightly match and still look like visual shit but the souls crowd seems to be so conditioned to lacklusted aesthetics that their bar for what looks good is lower than any fanbase I've seen and only a small amount actually look good, both youtube and here on 4chan over the years.Anyway, I love Melenia and Ranni and wish they were real.
Tl;dr I dont even wear the armor in this game
Redheads are the best

>>737259009Poor guy is trying so hard.
>>737259009The fanbase of any and all game series that becomes mainstream turns retarded and with zero-standards OP. Been like that since DS1.

>>737260701>boogeymanSomeone uses that term in elden ring threads on /vg/, we call him a brony over there, weird that the guy getting called that here also uses that term. >>737260764Don't worry about it we're all making fun of him in the /vg/ thread he's just crying here to let off steam.
>>737260250Everything he said is wrong>3,365 hours Elden Ring
>>737260887I didn't know what schizo shit you were going on about so I assumed it's all pinned on one guy like was already done here. The other chan doesn't do this shit where even slight negativity gets some weird tribalist defense-force to just dismiss everything said so I'm just going to assume you're all from a discord
>>737261065Noice
>>737259009How do you sex the 7ft tall redhead
>>737259009>an actual effort postAesthetics for the game itself (the areas, the enemies, etc) is a solid 9/10But for the player character? Yeah, most of what you said is completely true.Boss armors look like shit on the player because the proportions are way off. The bosses are a different size and shape, so when their armor gets shrunk down to fit on the player model, it just looks like ass.As for the mismatched colors when combining armor sets... yeah this one is unforgivable, and has been the biggest complaint from the fashion-souls crowd for a long time. It sucks to find a really cool armor piece, but then when you try it on it looks 5% brighter than everything else you're wearing, ruining the stylishness.Your best bet is to just find a good looking full set, and stick with that.
