Why don't female humanoid player models have the casual standing pose?
 

I realized all the male PC models in the game have a "weapons ready" standing pose and a relaxed casual friday "chillen" standing pose (if you duck and stand back up without moving that's the one I mean). However humans, barbarians, and all the elf races don't have a relaxed standing pose if it's a female model. I've always wondered if they just forgot to build out those poses or if they did and they were somehow omitted by accident or something? Did brad forget to take his pills that day?

Now I want to see what it would look like. Somebody photoshop it so I don't have to do it myself to satisfy my pointless but very intense curiosity to see what it would look like.

I always wondered about this as well.

I actually do have a theory and it's really sad and perverted if true, but remember this game was made by giant antisocial nerds:

They wanted the female human, barb and elves to be hot looking, and their asses wouldn't stick out so much in that casual standing pose with that particular wireframe they all share, so they just left it out. That's why female ogres and trolls and halflings *do* get casual standing poses, because they weren't supposed to be softcore porn for teenage nerds. Not that my female halfling druid isn't very sexually desirable mind you.

I have no evidence at all but I'm pretty much 100% sure that's why.

Yeah, I think you hit the nail on the head. Fem gnomes and dorfs too. It's a big reason why I play smol races only, not because I don't want my elfsim avatars to be babes but I love the relaxed standing position so much more than the awkward perma-T-Rex stance. Let me appreciate my bracers / gloves plz

asking the big questions here today boys

I was in Fools Gold the other day selling some wares and I overheard a drunk rogue who was at the craps tables spilling the beans about the desperate housewives of rivervale. Apparently they have a thing for adventurers with big feet.

Keep your shoes on boys

Lol look when you play the same game for like 25 years looking at the same graphics all the time you start asking the burning questions. It's high level stuff see.

Because the devs ran out of time to animate more.

I think they did their favorite models first. The ones they are most proud of. So that is why only the super cool races got love.

Ever notice questing in grobb and RV and kaladim is the best too?

A woman's work is never done.

That's why they get paid less!
