All party members are optional remember? so no one would be forced into taking on said character, but I do think it would be cool if their was a character who you could mentor, who would grow up different ways depending on what you told him. Maybe he could ultimately even become on enemy depending on what you said to him? very interesting to me.

I would really love it if obsidian chose a more Robert E. Howard/Classic Tolkein style for the arms and armor as opposed to the current fixation on final fantasy and anime inspired gear we see in games like WoW and basically every other rpg out there nowadays. There used to be a time when swords actually looked like swords and not giant multicolored slabs of stone with glowing writing all over them and spikes jutting out everywhere. Regarding the topic of female armors. I think plate mail could be largely unisex, however leather armor and thief gear should be more revealing imo, because I think its perfectly reasonable to imagine a thief attempting to play up her own sexuality in order to seduce noblemen/steal stuff ect.

It seems to make less sense in a world were god's explicitly exist and have a role in the game world. This a fantasy setting keep in mind.

I'm sure this will bother some people, but the real reason it's ridiculous to make arguments for "realistic female knights" is that woman weren't allowed to become knights in the middle ages. The time periods this game and all other medieval inspired rpg's attempt to invoke were incredibly sexist, and women were relegated largely to housekeeping and child rearing duties. The fact is the idea of a female warrior in any medieval or classical period is made up. I'm not saying women can't be tough or that it shouldn't exist, I'm just saying it's already a concession to entertainment over realism so stop talking about what is "logical" or "accurate". I'm sure some of you out there would prefer all the women in this game wore burkha's, but I for one hope the creator's don't share that sentiment.
