Wildstar's sin about body types is that they offer a thin build, a 'wide' build (which really means "diminished wasp waist") and then like seven varieties of the default one with bigger breasts, thiner waist, bigger rears or bigger legs. It's like they couldn't understand why people wanted more body types in the first place, so they covered the 'basic' ones, except not really, and then tweaked the avereage body with a clear fixation on all the 'sexy' parts.
The MMO with the best armor I ever saw was Warhammer Online, which might be an inherited merit of the miniatures (or perhaps not). Everything that wasn't an ork or chaos was awesome (in the 'this is something someone could actually wear' sense). Sadly, they went out of business because the game wasn't that good.
The D-Souls series not only has the most sensible armor in the history of modern videogames, but also some of the most stupid looking ones.
Not to mention some of the weapons that are twice the size of your character, or the tiny head syndrome certain armors had.
