If Widow and Tracer can go half naked onto the battlefield then so can Pharah.

I gave this a brief moment of thought and I think that this just falls on what the designers want to go with.

I know Blizz are trying to please as many people as possible with a variety of character types and I think that’s a decent way to go about it. There are a lot of male pubescent children like Wickedlike on the internet who want to see half naked ladies, so they should definitely input a bunch of heroes who dress scantily as they have done. However, the audience also has a lot of variety, so it’s also good to put in characters that dress modestly. That way everyone’s happy.

I think you’ll just have to live with covered up Pharah. Unfortunately the world doesn’t entirely revolve around horny children on the internet. :sweat_smile:

She can be dress’d noramly for once like out of armor im not asking for Pharah’s nudes here. :pray: Like genji is a real bot and he still has a skin with a nip slip.
Pharah isn’t a mecha. And she can be fully dressed. Just no Evangelion stuff please.

I think Genji is a cyborg, still human but with robotic components.

Sometimes the best choice in character design is to not do something, and I think this is one of those cases. Yes, we could have every character with a casual outfit but then that can also diminish what makes each character unique. Pharah is all business and her armour is basically her uniform. That’s a key component of the character.

It’s like if we had a skin where Hog had gone on a diet and was slim. Sure, it’s good visual variety but then Hogs weight is what defines him as a character. I think the same is true with Pharah and her armour.

But anyway I’m gonna leave it at that, as I’ve given my two cents!

Pharah is slim thou and you can make her dress hit in to the spaces her armor is fitted. She just needs a jetpack on the chest to make her feel like pharah.
It’s not imposible since every one of her skins feels like a slightly better recolored version of the last one. When other heroes have skins that change nearly everything about them and their abilitys. Pharah has yet to see anything close to that treatment. Even her ulty’s rocket’s stay the same for the most the of it yet junkrat can have 10 difrent tier’s and hog can have 10 difrent hooks.

I think its possible furthermore i believe that they are missing out on showing more about the hero with this her current skins.
Still i believe it will be good to see her out of armor. Fully dressed and what not.
Like hog and junk have skins that are just not tied to their lore. And i do think that they can make stuff like mecha roadhog just like doomfist has a skin where his fully armor’d.

This is basically the reverse of what i’m asking.

Widow and Tracer are both fully clothed.

Boots, leggings, a top, and even some headwear.

Not seeing the naked part.

20 characters required

Yes, I can read thanks. And I said

Which they are. Widow only shows a little git of clevage, and Tracer doesn’t even do that.

So, again, what’s your issue?

How can you compare this skin to Pharah.

That’s what half nake’d means.
A ain’t even going to comment on tracer like wow.
Just gonna add that they don’t leave a lot to the imagination.

Yeah, admittedly, I was comparing the Default skins, and some of their event skin are a little more revealing.

While I wouldn’t see a problem with Pharah getting a similar skin, I don’t see the point of making a thread like this to point score and almost make it seem like it was with some prejudice and the devs excluded Pharah.

Im just asking for it, saw a lot of topics like this one asking for skins, touth i’d make one myself. No harm done and i don’t expect much to come out of it.
Plus im just asking for less armor im not asking for anything lewd or sexual. I just think it will be nice to see her in something more casual.

Seems reasonable. I don’t see why Blizzard couldn’t add it, and I think they probably will at some point.

This is actually something I’ve wanted for Pharah for a long time.

There’s a bunch of well made fan arts of Pharah with more revealing skin yet still in jet armor. The OW team should really check them out for inspiration.

Actually… The idea of a Borat-like mankini crossed my mind when I was recently thinking about upcoming summer games skins. :joy:

However, with designers being Americans and plain stereotyping, a Lederhosen Bavarian Reinhardt is actually not too far off. Maybe for Halloween since its not too far off from Oktoberfest. :wink:

He’ll get a double-bladed axe and a matching lumberjack story blurp, like how at some point he had to earn bis living that way or was chopping trees to toughen up. He even already has the matching stein victory pose and the drinking-related voicelines.

If they can make it work with bis model, that skin is sure to come.

ARE YOU READY? :joy:

Yup. Let him yell “TIMBER!” when he shatters and add a “Falling - just like in ze old dayz” or something like that on elimination. I mean he can’t be taken seriously because of the silly stereotypical accent anyway, so they might as well totally exploit it. :joy:

I’m kinda surprised they actually made those skins esp wm, cause showing skin and buts ( cough some tracer pose being removed ) is worse then violence amirite ? :stuck_out_tongue:
