Fire Emblem Fates over sexualization is really off putting imo (pics)

The Fire Emblem series has always had "hot chicks".  The difference is now their tits are popping out of their completely-ill-suited-for-combat outfits.

And? It's ill-suited-for-combat but that's not uncommon in RPG's. Tifa spent the whole game using shorts and that tight shirt. And with those she was able to stand a big bang attack from sephiroth.

Another example, Tales of Vesperia. I can use an armor made out of bath bubbles and have more defense than a made-out-of-steel armor.

It doesn't matter,  it's meant to be ridiculous.

And just to get this out of the way, I didn't like Fire Emblem Awakening, but not because of the "oversexualized" characters or "ill-suited-for-combat" armors. I didn't like it because the my unit character is completely broken. See, my complaint is about the gameplay elements, while all you guys do is complain about tits.

That's where the issue lies.  There are ways to having sexy characters without them having their cleavage popping over their chins.

As for gameplay, clearly they've taken fan complains into account as Fates has a ton of changes, not to mention the devs saying that they hear the fans in the Fates Iwata Asks.  Meanwhile, there's more fan service in this game than Awakening by 100%.  

Your issues have been addressed, mine are getting worse.  Any long time fan of the sereis can see that the character designs are night and day.
