Jesus christ. I hate how the cuirass and the greaves are connected to each other. Because back in Oblivion I made this awesome pirate chick. With leather armored pants and a [censored] and some light armored boots. I wanted to make another pirate like chick in Skyrim, but all the Clothes turn into [censored] dresses for the woman. Bethseda are you against pants on a woman? Especially an adventuring woman. The only thing close to pirate is the Hammerfell garb, but it looks quite ugly on my woman. I want to be able to mix cloth and light armor and put my lady in some pants. Why does everything have to be a dress for the ladies?

Pants are oppression.

They're against underwear and socks as well.

Explain this to me, please.

Miner's clothes have pants for women.

uuh

usrsbro?

Yes, they hate them.

I pooped in mine the first time a Dragon smashed down in front of me out of the clear blue sky

But they are ugly. -.-



lol.

Pants are underwear, the term you're looking for is 'trousers'.

They destroy freedom.

They do! It's so sad. At least almost everyone wears skirts and suffers along with my character.

I've got a female char this time around, so it's all about skirts and dresses!

In what country? I have never heard anyone refer to underwear as pants or vise-versa.

+5 Skirt of FREEDOM!

After the Great War, the Aldmeri Dominion stated:

1) The worship of Talos must be banned
2) Southern Hammerfell belongs to the Aldmeri
3) All pants be outlawed; natives must all instead choose between 10 clothing attire

England, home of the language ENGLISH, the language you are speaking...Jesus.

If you watched their interview, they said that they HAD to conect the Cuirass with the Greaves so there is more variety in armor and also it's possible to add more NPC's in the Screen..
Do you prefer the Deserted Cities that Oblivion had ?

You're American, that is why.

Any country which speaks english, and not one of its mutated versions, will say trousers as outer clothing and pants as underwear.

I'm against pants too. No-one should be allowed to wear pants... at all.

England? Who gives a [censored] what they call things in England? It only matters where I live.

Not true. Australia, New Zealand, Canada all say pants when meaning trousers. Trousers is an englsh thing.

I do miss the days of being able to dress myself how I please.
So sick of being forced to co-ordinate my pants, shirt and shoulder armor!!
Some of us don't like to match!!

BETHESDA WHY DO YOU NOT CATER TOO ALL!!!!! OCCUPY SKYRIM!!!!

How the hell does that make any sense? They gave up the ability to combine the twelve kinds of armor that were in Oblivion (there was even more variety in Morrowind which had 9 armor positions, and around 20 types of armor) for 4 more types of armor. I also fail to see how the number of possible places to put armor affects how many NPC's that can be included.

Edit: I've totaled the number of armor pieces in each game, and was actually rather surprised by Skyrim's total.
Total number of base, unenchanted armor pieces in Morrowind: 191
Total number of base, unenchanted armor pieces in Oblivion: 83
Total number of base, unenchanted armor pieces in Skyrim: ~170 (I counted each city's and several small settlement's guard armor each time it appeared, so the actual count is around 145)

That said, I fail to see how it would have been such a horrible thing to separate the armor into a modified version of Morrowind's system, such as having helmets, cuirasses, greaves, boots, shields, pauldrons (counting as a single item), and gauntlets (also counting as a single item).
