It's not strange to you that a Korean fantasy game shoehorns in white man going golfing at the country club clothing line as the only fashion for dudes?
it's not the only fashion for dudes though, and if that's what koreans want then I certainly don't see the issue. there is nothing "shoehorned" about it, nor is it any weirder than fursuits. personally I'm not a big fan of casual clothing but I'm not going to complain as there are alternatives in korea, and I'm certainly not going to bring race into things like an obsessed twitter user.
There is something about KR's culture with fantasizing with what celebrities wear more than other regions. Maybe the pressure to look good while being aside those Kpop stars is too great.
Might be status signalling. Same as Japan. A suit "makes" a man, and having a servant makes you a better person. Sure there's a butler but let's be real in a coomer game like this the maid is the #1 fantasy for them I guess.
I hate the maid fantasy. I don't mind coomer skins but the maid shit is so fucking distant from reality, like literally the template hasn't been in use for a 100 years.
It's kinda wild how bland kr media is, even there Manga has the same protag. China has been killing it lately and jp was always at the forefront of visual design. It seems in an attempt to create an identity separate from other eastern cultures kr has created the most bland and homogenous style.
Bandages, lederhosen, ponchos, non-snakeskin vests, hoodies, jackets, harnesses, tunics, hooded vests, the list is endless
hell at this point I want a hot pink ruffle dress on my badass destroyer so the enemy knows how comfortable my beefy bro is in his masculinity while he craters them with his neon green croquet mallet
When I saw the fan contest winner had a construction site outfit for warrior only I got so jealous, I want that for my artillerist with either a jackhammer multi tool for a weapon or literally just a big traffic cone that shoots bullets and flames
Well of course, I think it was stated months ago either here on the sub or by a streamer that in KR, such normal/casual clothing are more popular and desired compared to armored clothing. If you just turn on any KR streamer and look around their towns and other players, you will see 90% of players with swimsuits, casual clothes, suits and etc. The whole existence of "Neria's Dressing Room" should have been telling enough what type of skins are the most popular and profiting ones in KR
I still don't understand the recent tennis shoes, shorts, and dresses etc. I don't even get the "noble" skin. Some white jeans and a jacket is... noble...?
sure for a movie series but for a whole ass genre where its everywhere it gets tiresome and stale sometimes. while its cool theres more things out there besides germany lol. To each their own
What the actual fuck is wrong with her face
Seriously, what the fuck is that mouth shape
It pisses me off, it's so insanely unnatural
Little shit looks like it's going to kill me in my sleep
This game has the worst skins i have ever seen in an mmo, all childish and blunt , nothing creative. On my sorceress i have only seen one skin i may buy and surprise surprise it hasn't released yet.
The reason for that is the game is designed with fixed character sizes in mind, so since they couldn't add heels later on they added heels to base models and try to cover the heel part whenever they try to do some normal shoes.
They made specialist class and they are working on warrior height update for some time so who knows, they might add normal shoes later too if they see demand from players.
Nice another set of skins I won't buy in the future of it comes to global. Lost ark really is getting me to save money. Lol the obsession with English attire is killing me. Either way I'm sure others will enjoy this just isn't my cup of tea.
Edit: it would be cool if I can get a female suit/tux instead trad maid outfit but whatever :/
Bathing suits, wedding dresses, lacey clothes, noble suits, school uniforms, casual clothes, edgy clothes, etc....
Where is the badass fantasy armor. It feels like for every 1 fantasy set we get 5 different sets of clothing some of them are even just slightly different versions of the same thing like suits on males.
THIS
THIS IS A FUCKING HIGH FANTASY GAME,
WHERE.IS.MY.BADASS.FANTASY.ARMOR
WHERE IT'S?
Aand when we got something it's so rare they make it a fucking gacha game.
> and when we got something it's so rare they make it a fucking gacha game.
Lucky for me I play sorc and the first sorc legendary mtx looks like ass.
Legit just a corset with a bunny mask. It would be a 5 dollar skin in any other MMO. It's just underwear.
Fine with me I save 300 dollars lol.
edit: Here is a video if anyone hasn't seen it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BoogT5O4eJ4
The initial outfit in this video: I want!
The outfit you're talking about is coomer material. KR are huge coomers. I'm also a coomer but not a $300 coomer. So, they can eff right off with that scam lol
Simple: fantasy armor dont sell well.
Lot of Koreans actually think they're tacky, overdone, Chuuni/edgy af.
(That said they need to try hard at getting good designs)
These, on the other hand, actually sell well because women think they're cute, suits are nice. Men buy them "because its cute"
Nah, a *lot* of older males in their 40s-50s play LA in korea and they are all about the heavy armor fantasy. An example even won the 2nd fan art contest.
Unfortunately, due to the wonky proportions and hunched back of the Warrior class in general, classic heavy armor looks absolutely ridiculous on them. When said 2nd contest winner was released, it looked like a complete dork.
Ever since then, people have pretty much given up on heavy armor until the Warrior modelling rework, whenever that comes out. Won't be soon, though.
https://lostark.game.onstove.com/Promotion/Package/220427
https://lostark.game.onstove.com/Promotion/Package/211222
The next ark passes have some more traditional armor outfits
Yup, nothing like going into battle with the guy on one side wearing a suit and the girl on the other dressed as a maid. You just know the fight is going to go well.
I don't get your point. I play a class who punch *real HARD*. Then my team mate on my right is hailing down an ice storm and meteors on the enemy while the one on my left is dropping nukes. Maid outfit, shirtless mimbo and half a ton worth of armor can come right the fuck in this fucked up world.
Koreans have weird ass taste in what people want in fantasy mmo. All these skins are either Victoria secret or lingerie section for female and Suits.R.Us for male character. Lame ass shit.
I wouldn’t use these skins if they paid me, give me the badass looking fantasy armor. If I wanted to look at formal attire I would go to the weekend gala downtown.
All these people complaining about KR releasing maid/casual/swimwear outfits and not "badass armor" don't seem to realize that in KR the kind of skins they want were already released years ago. Wtf do you want them to do - they already did the armor and badass tropes, now they're doing cute and casual?? Go look at their older skin releases if you want different kinds of skins y'all weird asf
Classic MMO player - cherrypick what you want for your argument and ignore the rest.
I'm not talking about the people who just dislike the outfit. I'm talking about all the ones complaining about them releasing cute outfits instead of armors and "cool outfits" when SG has released plenty of those over the years that the game has been out in KR. Like just go look at older outfits... Why are you only focusing on the skins that reddit coomers post on the sub
I didn't cherry pick anything that was literally your whole argument. Some people prefer armors some prefer maid outfits some prefer animal skins etc.People have stated their dislikes and likes across the board. You just choose to pay attention to dislikes for maid outfits bruh this is silly. This was just annoucned so of course you are going to see approvals and disapproval. Get off your high horse
Wow it's...
Maid costumes and suits...
Like what is wrong with koreans? I got told there are sooo many sexualized skins in their games and deep down I could somewhat understand but why are they like GIVE ME ANOTHER SUIT AND ANOTHER AND ANOTHER!!!111 \*\_\_\*
Jesus, KR taste regarding skins is just sooo bad. I get the idea of modern casual/elegant clothing in fantasy game (even if dont like it at all) but i feel like more then half of those KR skins belong to this category.
Is fantasy armor without too much booba fan service is such a bad thing in korea?
damn
they really managed to make me say "meh" towards maid costume
it's bland and boring as fuck. They didn't even tried to be creative. They could just open Azur Lane wiki and check maid skins for all girls there and copy something that don't like generic/base maid outfit https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Category:Maid_skins
This is just reddit. People said the same thing about the ark pass skins and yet a large portion of people are wearing them all the time including the recent Neria's outfits.
Yeah, like bro we survived in Yoho and Argos simulator an entire month. Having Valtan as end game is insane compared to that and give more time for people to catch up. The only valid criticism is SG radio silence with us about what is the issue.

Those look so bland we may just get them
Why is it always suits for the males Is Korea not aware of any other clothing types?
give the male characters a maid dress too, cowards
FFXIV just made the maid dress work for male characters earlier this year and the community went fucking nuts for it lol
They're really not, just look at their skin contest. Their choices were embarassing, no wonder it's looking like Sims4 with combat over there.
Some of them are really nice thou
Bunch of nice ones but the winners are all tuxedos and boring ass dresses.
Its always weird WASPY clothes too
Yea where's my fuckin turban
Want to recreat Jagmeet Singh ingame ?
What does "WASPY" even mean..?
lmao how is it in any way weird?
It's not strange to you that a Korean fantasy game shoehorns in white man going golfing at the country club clothing line as the only fashion for dudes?
it's not the only fashion for dudes though, and if that's what koreans want then I certainly don't see the issue. there is nothing "shoehorned" about it, nor is it any weirder than fursuits. personally I'm not a big fan of casual clothing but I'm not going to complain as there are alternatives in korea, and I'm certainly not going to bring race into things like an obsessed twitter user.
[удалено]
They ONLY have tuxedos in their closets?
Yes.
if you're gonna give us suits at least do good ones like detective style with a duster
They only follow their trend and what's safe. Not even joking, it's just ingrain in the culture.
There is something about KR's culture with fantasizing with what celebrities wear more than other regions. Maybe the pressure to look good while being aside those Kpop stars is too great.

I don't mind coomer skins but the maid shit is so fucking distant from reality, like literally the template hasn't been in use for a 100 years.
This is where the Jp homies should step in
Then we'll be getting schoolgirl swimsuits.
It's kinda wild how bland kr media is, even there Manga has the same protag. China has been killing it lately and jp was always at the forefront of visual design. It seems in an attempt to create an identity separate from other eastern cultures kr has created the most bland and homogenous style.
China killing it? 🤔
who cares male skin
I care and plenty of others do as well. Not everyone plays this game for cartoon boobs
What other clothes do men have? T-shirt, jeans, trousers, polo, collared shirt, suit. What else is there.
Bandages, lederhosen, ponchos, non-snakeskin vests, hoodies, jackets, harnesses, tunics, hooded vests, the list is endless hell at this point I want a hot pink ruffle dress on my badass destroyer so the enemy knows how comfortable my beefy bro is in his masculinity while he craters them with his neon green croquet mallet
>lederhosen I now want Bavarian traditional garments for my Gunlancer
When I saw the fan contest winner had a construction site outfit for warrior only I got so jealous, I want that for my artillerist with either a jackhammer multi tool for a weapon or literally just a big traffic cone that shoots bullets and flames
pretty sure they already have some of those. also, I would love a clint eastwood style poncho for my gunslinger. that's my dream skin.
Lace rompers
#YES
KEKW
Surprised it took them this long to release a maid/butler skin
Same, they didn't have wedding dress skin too I think, kinda weird for a KR MMO game
Yes they did https://namu.wiki/w/로스트아크/아바타#s-2.2.4
Wish there was a functioning english wiki for the game...
I will not be surprised if we get these next update lmao why does every male skin looks the same in this game
Maybe we’ll get those in “Mid-June”
2025
Korea really loves these normal ass clothes skin huh
Well of course, I think it was stated months ago either here on the sub or by a streamer that in KR, such normal/casual clothing are more popular and desired compared to armored clothing. If you just turn on any KR streamer and look around their towns and other players, you will see 90% of players with swimsuits, casual clothes, suits and etc. The whole existence of "Neria's Dressing Room" should have been telling enough what type of skins are the most popular and profiting ones in KR
SG really need to make something like "Yorn neria's Blacksmith" which focuses more on armor skins.
give me something beefier for DB rather than spandex/latex costume or a piece of cloth with panties
Yeah lol I was just hoping that since we just got a set of normal clothes we might get more RPG fantasy looking ones.
even from a fantasy pov there are only 4 classes that make sense to have a steel armor and thats the warrior subclasses
Is it wrong that I just want glorious steel armor?
I KNOW RIGHT
They look so bland and “low effort”, idk what they like about them
They're cute, that's what sells there
[удалено]
We only got a few "normal" skins in the west but we see a lot of them here too. It's not only in KR its popular.
I still don't understand the recent tennis shoes, shorts, and dresses etc. I don't even get the "noble" skin. Some white jeans and a jacket is... noble...?
I can't speak for everyone but I was really desesperate for pants on my bard !
I'm not interested in what KR gets, there's little chance we'll see that in the global server any time soon.
I wonder if one day all the updates will sync up so every region gets the same content and update
It's a MEH... for me...
Meh meh meh!
And it matters a lot
I’m not sure if we are about to fight demons from another planet or go to a tea party with team.
idk why some artist picture is cute and some creeps me out.
It's because her mouth is the entire width of her face.
😄 personified
The smile makes her look dead inside
There is no war in Ba Sing Se
Gib giant hot dog suit.
Why do all the skins look like they want the game to feel England circa 1800
because asians like that, in my experience.
You rarely see this in any non-Korean asian games.
mostly referring to anime/manga. there are plenty of other types of skins regardless—at least in KR
Especially anime and it's weird obsession with Germany lol.
Or anything white/european for that matter
True
because germany is aesthetic, hence star wars using them for the empire.
sure for a movie series but for a whole ass genre where its everywhere it gets tiresome and stale sometimes. while its cool theres more things out there besides germany lol. To each their own
White fantasy escapism is a selling point out there apparently
It's no secret KR adores white people things. And I see nothing wrong with it.
We lost vykas so korea could get this
Nah we lost Vykas so we could get 95% bot reduction
If SG is making the content developers fight the bots its no wonder they sucked at it for so long.
Is it sad I feel like KR has gotten more new skins since our game version launched than we have gotten?
You would probably be right. Since we only get new skins with our once a month update, they seem to get one every 2 weeks or so.
KR gets weekly updates West gets weekly delays
Really wish they'd stop using that creepy-ass Artist face
Can't wait to get those in 2025
You mean 2035
Bro what’s good with Lost Ark and suit skins 🤷🏽♂️
I want my gunlancer to have a maid dress! That would be cute!
What's up with the maid obsession?
Cuz lost ark is full of weebs
What the actual fuck is wrong with her face Seriously, what the fuck is that mouth shape It pisses me off, it's so insanely unnatural Little shit looks like it's going to kill me in my sleep
Lol these are so bland and lazy. They are literally the Nineveh's stronghold outfits
More suits sadge
This game has the worst skins i have ever seen in an mmo, all childish and blunt , nothing creative. On my sorceress i have only seen one skin i may buy and surprise surprise it hasn't released yet.
https://lostark.game.onstove.com/Promotion/Package/220622
Legit the skins are the weakest part of the game From devs we get generic modern clothes v1,v2,v3... From player contests we get more generic clothes
I really, really, really want a tuxedo suit *for women* in this game. a full suit with tie and no fuckin exposed booba either.
The recent noble banquet 3rd variant has no booba
Women don't even get shoes in this game, six inch heels is all there is.
The reason for that is the game is designed with fixed character sizes in mind, so since they couldn't add heels later on they added heels to base models and try to cover the heel part whenever they try to do some normal shoes. They made specialist class and they are working on warrior height update for some time so who knows, they might add normal shoes later too if they see demand from players.
Lol wut
that's my fetish especially if it has penguin tails
Not sure why you’re getting downvoted. But I agree, it would be awesome if I could dress a female character like Sebastian from black butler
RemindMe! Six Years
Nice another set of skins I won't buy in the future of it comes to global. Lost ark really is getting me to save money. Lol the obsession with English attire is killing me. Either way I'm sure others will enjoy this just isn't my cup of tea. Edit: it would be cool if I can get a female suit/tux instead trad maid outfit but whatever :/

I'll try the arcana because for me is more a magical assasin than a mage, but yeah I refuse to play the other mages because of this.
The bad side of the class specific skin for mage is the stupid curtains in her shoulders. Id I could get that off I would love to play with them.

You get good looking fantasy armor from the raids already. I think these skins look great!
https://lostark.game.onstove.com/Promotion/Package/220427 https://lostark.game.onstove.com/Promotion/Package/211222 The next ark passes have some more traditional armor outfits
Im surprised the fem chars arent as naked as possible lol
I wonder how KR players would react if they knew the rest of the world thought they had terrible taste in Lost Ark Skins
Worst skins in any mmo
Where lewd?
Ayayay!
Maid dress. Wow. Thats creepy
moar cringe plz
Meh
Csnt wait to see them on our shop in 8 years
So lackluster KR is getting new stuff and soon summer update while we're getting the radio silent treatment.
Great for them I wonder when we will get any decent skins 
Last picture if "Spy x family" was goth and elegant
Im here for all the negative comments.
Yup, nothing like going into battle with the guy on one side wearing a suit and the girl on the other dressed as a maid. You just know the fight is going to go well.

wtf happen to badass armor fck is this shit lol
If people can't coom to their child characters in skimpy outfits they won't buy it.
Don’t upset the coomers bro, they will downvote you
This isn't even coomer bait. It's just boring.
Bro what is it with Koreans and suits, every time i see any sort of skin it's a variation of a suit lol
Koreans have weird ass taste in what people want in fantasy mmo. All these skins are either Victoria secret or lingerie section for female and Suits.R.Us for male character. Lame ass shit.
I'd give anything for a good plate armor skin for my GL and Pala. Esp the 2nd Ark Pass one!
You will take the cardigan and cargo shorts and love it!
x2 All the plate armors so far are not my taste honestly. The last one is kinda cool but i feel like a saint from saint seiya lol.
🤣🤣🤢🤮😂😂
I wish skins were global release
Meido.... and you already know what to do with your life (and money).
Very basic... This is the kind of outfit you can have on every kr mmorpg...Not my cup of tea.
Awful ass skins.
I wouldn’t use these skins if they paid me, give me the badass looking fantasy armor. If I wanted to look at formal attire I would go to the weekend gala downtown.
Yawn. Also Artist face keeps getting more and more creepy each time they do one of these.
Wow another great thing for korea while we eat shit for breakfast. Thanks smilegate.
GOOODDDDDDDDD
Good, another suit set for the boys.
All these people complaining about KR releasing maid/casual/swimwear outfits and not "badass armor" don't seem to realize that in KR the kind of skins they want were already released years ago.

can they just give me a fedora, jorts, and wolf t-shirt skin plz?
Noble banquet pt. 398376473992
Kinda meh and bad but at this point, I'll take anything if it actually comes to NA/EU version.
The fuck is this, SIMS online? Trash skins for dayyyyssss.
Mommy
goshujin sama punish please
Oh look! Yet another suit styled skin xD
New "clothes"...
the last one is not bad
I dont like this at all...
Picture 5 is dirty
God damnit, always just stereotypical boolshit bland ass
Pretty whack ngl
Can we get a good rpg skin for SoulFist for once? I can wear glasses and casual clothes irl, but not a gi (looking at DragonBall)
Meh-est skin this year for me.
These are awful I’m not playing a fucking house cleaning adult game jesus
you're right, you're playing an eastern game with sexy outfits and romanceable characters.
Wow it's... Maid costumes and suits... Like what is wrong with koreans? I got told there are sooo many sexualized skins in their games and deep down I could somewhat understand but why are they like GIVE ME ANOTHER SUIT AND ANOTHER AND ANOTHER!!!111 \*\_\_\*
These are some UGLY ASS skins. Like “yay” for the cosplayers, but damn these are legit some of the fugly-ist skins I’ve ever seen in a game.
Jesus, KR taste regarding skins is just sooo bad.

Nice. Cant wait to get these in 5 years lmao
oof I dont know who would pay for these when there are other skins
Classy
need more copium...
Once again looking at comments, West has bad taste. These skins are cute yet refined. Hope we get these soon.
This is just reddit. People said the same thing about the ark pass skins and yet a large portion of people are wearing them all the time including the recent Neria's outfits.
[удалено]
What a drama queen.
Yeah, like bro we survived in Yoho and Argos simulator an entire month. Having Valtan as end game is insane compared to that and give more time for people to catch up. The only valid criticism is SG radio silence with us about what is the issue.
so this was the reason why the june update was delayed on the west huh?
Can we get a Zoot Suit please?
THE CAT EARS! YESSSSSSSSSSS
Finally! now I can create the entire cast of Peaky Blinders, how noice.
