I like Roe, but the reasons they're rarely played, especially among RPers, are rather obvious. I wish I could make a lady Roe. There are so many gorgeous ones I've seen! However, it's an archetype I wouldn't be comfortable RPing, so I haven't made one. (Actually, I did have one in beta--I just didn't keep her around).
It's funny, I see a lot of people criticising female roegadyn for being rather curvy and thickly built and yet...a very large portion of the other race's females are being drawn and described in the exact same way. Though given how oversexualised most characters tend to be, I'm not surprised.
I criticize female Roegadyn for having no butts. At. All. None. Take all your Roegadame's clothes off and turn her sideways. See what I mean?
Even so they're still a lot more sexualised than male characters tend to be. It's rare to find male character models with a bulge in their underwear, even if it'd be realistic to see one. I'm getting a little tired of the 'Action Man' style anatomy in MMO's.
Have you seen one of them in the summer wear thong? I have. It's borderline disturbing and for the completely wrong reason!
It's baffling, really - there's a lot of skimpy attire for men in this game and yet it just looks silly because the base character model are just so flat in regards to the crotch region to the point where it looks glaringly unrealistic. I'm hoping TESO will be a step in the right direction by allowing us to customise that portion of our character's body, but apparently it's 'too crude' to have something like that in MMO's and yet it's 'perfectly fine' to have a breast slider...
