Not sure what you are talking about.  Do tribes fight half naked?  Sure, because they have limited resources.  It isn't like they are leaving the combat gear at home.  Look at any modern army in the world...  they aren't wearing bikinis and lingerie in the battle.

And it is black/white.  Nobody, absolutely nobody, is saying females can't be sexy.  Have a game that takes place at a dance club, sure have them wear sexy outfits.  Have a game that takes place on a beach relaxing, knock yourself out with bikinis.  Those attires fit the environment.  What those attires don't fit is battlefields, fighting the zombie apocalypse, etc.  It is as simple as putting all characters (male and female) in appropriate attire that matches the game, because it adds to the atmosphere.    

Again, not entirely true.  The Celts and Gauls were very much capable of and did produce helmets and padded armor to wear into battle against the Roman army.  Yet, Diororus and Polybius both stated that there were groups from both who fought naked out of confidence and for psychological warfare.  So, yes, they actually did "leave gear at home" as you put it.

Remind me who won that war.  

You can't, or shouldn't, reasonable argue fighting naked makes sense.  Rikku being in a bikini top is childish nonsense.  Jill in a skirt and tube top is childish nonsense.  You want to like it, so be it, but the silly justifications need to stop.  Some like it because boobs, nothing more.

I am all for proper attire in gaming, simply put is just matches to the environment better.  It just makes sense.

I've asked this question multiple times in this thread and nobody has bothered to answer...  you all fine if Nathan Drake in UC5 wears a speedo when exploring the jungle?  No issues right?  Game isn't realistic anyway, am I right?  

*let us be honest, nobody is going to answer that question because they answer is gamers would be pissed if Nathan became a naked model completely lacking character.  If only people could see the hypocrisy.
