Why are POE 2 female MTX Costumes so UGLY compared to something like League of Legends?

Never understood this POE 2 has some really ugly cosmetics it's a unisex cheap knock off thing they use for both gender classes.

Like there is 0 reason to buy anything for my witch in the MTX store except the vanishing dye and skin transfer so I can use the actual ingame armors.

Nobody really wants all these ugly hemlmets

Look how amazing and beautiful the female skins look in League of Legends or The First Descendant or Marvel Rivals etc

A shame that GGG is stuck in 2013 unable to upgrade still giving us these ugly skins in POE 2. Guess it's good for me cause this way I can save money but still

Morgana in league does the "witch" cosmetics so much better than whatever ugliness we have in POE 2, very disappointed with GGG

Are you seriously complaining that you can't burn money on pixels?

The fact that they not only supported a game, but also funded another with their MTX model, suggests that people are fine with the current "look" of the "skins".

Maybe I'm not gooner-brained enough to understand your predicament...

Those are completely different artstyles. If you want that over-saturated, high-color, cartoony, half-naked shit here, I don't really think it belongs. But hey, that's just me.
Sometimes, just sometimes, you should really consider adapting to the world, instead of demanding that the world adapts to you.

Tbf here....wings don't belong into PoE as well, the goblin pets or the ridiculous awful helmets
I agree GGG seems to be going in the direction of "woke" where females that look masculine or binary. If they continue you can bet on the slogan Go woke Go broke.
They even have this "Strong woman" commentary at the start of Act 2 when you play a Witch. She says something like "I like strong woman". This is straight woke bs.
Also, every female character looks ugly even compared to PoE 1.

I'm not going to try to blackmail or anything, but if this is a really woke direction they take I won't spend a cent anymore.
This is true, go woke go broke.

The witch and the scion were always femenists, did you never listen to their dialogue? And the models are also good. Or did you want some D cup sprouting halfnakid heavy metal poster girl? (nothing wrong with that ;) )

God build?! https://pobb.in/bO32dZtLjji5
I'm tossing in my vote for less colorful, crazy memory intensive skins please.

15 second zone loads suck.

Also, so if it's not FF14 style art on 1850's subservient women then it's woke? Cringe...

Ofc I do!
In poe1 almost every female character has D cup or bigger =)

Anyways, I just hope the game doesn't go woke path.

This tells me you both don't have a working definition of 'woke' (Hint, there isn't one), and you've literally never played a PoE1 Witch or Scion, or listened to any dialog of any character.

Just an admission that female characters (and women in general) scare you. Better admit to that than try to label something 'going woke' that's kept the -exact- same tone towards women as it's had for twenty years.

I'll also note, this game has TONS of scantily clad women, it's just not generally the protagonists. A lot of this is an outgrowth of the fairly realistic rendering of its items, gear and mods of dress (MTX aside). But Yeena isn't exactly modest, and Hyrri shows more moon than the Moon Goddesses.
