Too much cleavage.

The costume is accurate to the character it's based from. Unfortunately Sniper Wolf was designed almost 20 years ago, before all of the recent criticisms in gaming.

Edit: Will this be DLC in the future? I think this sneaking suit would look better than the XOF outfit.

Never said the designer is a misogynist. Quiet's appearance and some of her actions serve no purpose other than to please some people. Sexual objectification is wrong.

It's not even about the empowering of women. How am I supposed to feel empowered watching her roll around almost naked on a rain-soaked floor?

Obviously Kojima doesn't hate women, he has done a great job in making some powerful female characters. But most of those characters are simply not allowed to not show skin or they have to do some sexual things. Do people not see this?

Well I'm not saying it's a good design, I just thought the term misogyny is probably off the mark here. One can design the most tasteless, pervy, sexual fictional characters while loving and respecting (real) women.

Sorry, it's probably a stronger word than necessary. But really, after so many years of the same thing, it's just tiring. :p

Sexual objectification of real women who have real personalities, hopes, dreams, and struggles is wrong. Creating a character who is meant to titillate is not.
In a very limited sense, sure. There is no real person named Quiet who is being harmed by this portrayal of her.

By that token, bodice ripper pulp fiction isn't harming anybody either. That doesn't mean that they're any less low brow titillation. This mod will add to the appeal of the game for people who find cleavage justified by a just-so-story objectionable. It isn't a bad thing.
 
There's a reason she can't breathe and it's not some made up justification, it's a fact.

Huh? She's a fictional character. They pulled some stupid ass reason out of their ass to justify her running around a battlefield practically naked.

In no way does pairing a stupid reason with a stupid idea redeem that stupid idea.

Nah, you get more tits with her default outfit. Who doesn't like those?

Haha. We all like tits. I just like mine to be a little more tasteful. More Paul Verhoeven, less Michael Bay. You know, classy.

Really? This is the 1st time I heard of this. I bet it's Eli.

Just my guess, but that's the only reason that annoying little prick makes any sense. Plus he fits in with the philosophy. He was being set up to be the perfect non-lethally nerfed of course battle buddy. Of course this assumes we had another 60% of game left in which to do it.

it may seem like an asspull but its an asspull that fits in with with foundation of genetic modification and dehumanization of the soldier. She's literally a plant/cat/assassin/tool/pawn/and a woman last, and it was the patriarchy/Patriots that did it to her.

I'm guessing that finally at the end of all of this, she finally gets some agency and goes off on her own, but I haven't reached her mission yet. This might be an actual although mightily ham-fisted 'feminist awakening' story.
 
To be fair, I've been using her in that suit for something like 50 hours now.
thank you, butterfly emblem!

That suit looks pretty rad.

I find this mod offensive as it gives the opportunity to torture a female NPC by taking away her primary source of inhalation.
 
The reason she even
survived being drowned
in chapter 45 is because of her capability to breathe through her skin

Well that changes everything!

If her porno look is so important, why is the XOF uniform in there as an upgrade then? That's right, because its an in game apology from Hideo. He's saying sorry to us for being a perv.
 
Her clothes never really bothered me. What bothers me is Kojima's raging camera boner, constantly poking and prodding her boobs and butt, before presumably unspooling tons of film reel all over her face while Kojima says, "Do you rike it?"

That's what gets me. I mean, if it wasn't for the camera, it'd just be a chick in a bikini and torn tights. She's not particularly provocative in and of herself.

Well, aside from gasping orgasmically when you load her on the Sortie Prep screen, complete with unnecessary boob jiggle since she's just standing.

And showering for an audience of gawking men whispering to each other, "Naughty girl!"

And drinking rainwater through her boobs while dry-humping the tarmac.

OK, maybe this game did go too far.
Yeah the outfit isn't the problem. It's the real reason for it, ie. all of that^^, and her constantly shoving her ass in my face and sitting crooked to give better boob view when I'm doing idroid stuff in the chopper, that's what makes it embarrassing and shitty. The XOF outfit helps some with that.
I'm a bit surprised that people are surprised by the T&A. Meryl's ass, EVA's breasts, the BatB unit and Naomi and Mei Ling and Paz... Kojima likes some titillation.
It's not a surprise. It just continues to be boring. And also disappointing, considering Kojima is capable of reigning this stuff in, which in the case of MGS3, made for better characterizations. Probably my favorite MGS in terms of the story, because of the characters and their dynamics. What titillation there was, was justified. Eva's trying to jack Snake's stuff throughout the entire game. ...you know what I mean.
But Kojimas artistic vision. ;_;



Hilarious is only how people like you still arent able to see the difference.
B&B was absolutely the same kind of crap though. Arguably worse. Or better I suppose, considering it's worse to cheapen a character that has some.

B&B is some sort of war crime though. It's not just the drawn out creepscenes. The horrendously hamfisted, dull and dreary exposition Drebin shovels at you, I assume is supposed to provide some backstory and give the characters depth, but all it does is bore you to tears while shining a spotlight on the fact that all their backstories are practically the same, that there absolutely is no character depth. Making it even more blatant that they're in the game purely for one reason, which really was not necessary. I'd prefer it if they were Transformers like I originally thought. They'd be more than meets the eye.
 

Raging Spaniard

If they are Dutch, upright and breathing they are more racist than your favorite player
The original outfit is still a better fit for her and her whole character concept. No change for me.
 
In case this is a serious post: because I don't give a shit since I think his vision was idiotic?

His vision is what it is, same as it ever was. Who cares? The disappointing thing about her character was Kojima building her appearance up as if there was a deeper meaning than her simply being a Bellsprout.

For you.
There's a reason she can't breathe and it's not some made up justification, it's a fact. Whether you like it or not is a whole nother thing, but we were given a reason.
Its completely and utterly made up, and even in-game events contradict it.

Probably the same reason
the Sniper Wolf outfit is in there as well as the horse, D-Dog and D-Walker having many different looks and variations
, it just adds more customization options

Lets play dress up with this female character, objectifying her, to counter her sexual objectification.

Cool lets put a bow on her too!

Who cares about her? Wheres my tuxedo outfit?

edit: The outfit is in the game, its not changing the 'vision', its one of several outfits she can wear including sniper wolfs. I got it halfway in.

That's the outfit I always put her in. It was stupid that it couldn't be unlocked until so late in the game. Wish she had her hair down in it like she wears it in the prologue though. Maybe someone will mod that too.

Where did that screen come from? It doesn't look like the standard sneaking suit.

How do you obtain Snake's bandanna?
You get a cosmetic one from normal story progression. The infinity bandanna I think requires an S-rank in one of the last few missions.
