This is gaming, there is no place for SJWs who aren't gonna play anyway. I am considering buying Doom Eternal too after they gave that middle finger to SJWs :)
While that would be great, I agree, it's clearly not going to happen.
While I wouldn't call Fury ugly, in fact I find she's quite attractive, taking away her original outfit from the comics and giving her a full suit of armor is a warning sign to me.
Although, if the game really was a full-on SJW inside job, I doubt she'd have the rack we've seen so far, or would even be running around in high heels. Remember, anything even remotely sexy is "muh objectification".
Joe Madureira, the artist who did Fury's original concept designs, also did the remade design for the game. He felt that Fury's original design didn't really fit with the other horsemen, thus he made her outfit look similar to War's in that it's a bit more armored and has the same skulls and designs etched into it. "SJW" nonsense had nothing to do with it. This is all detailed in an IGN article: http://www.ign.com/articles/2017/05/10/darksiders-3-everything-you-need-to-know-about-fury-a-ign-first
He also worked with the devs on her body proportions, which I can safely say are nowhere NEAR "SJW" levels. She has an hourglass shape, is quite buxom, and thick thighs. People who feel armor completely nullifies someone's sex appeal make me laugh. Her breastplate accentuates said breasts and her loincloth is thin enough width-wise to also accentuate her thighs and butt. Even the armor on the sides of her thighs help with accentuating them by making them look even thicker than they actually are. The lady's gorgeous. And kinda evil. And would probably destroy everyone in this thread.
Oh, I actually never knew that this is the reasoning behind changing her outfit. Makes sense.
Yeah, like I said, seeing all the other stuff about her (body proportions, high heels, sexy whip dance) any SJW theory pretty much flies out the window.
Yeah it seems alot of people either don't know Joe himself did the redesign, or are hell bent on believing what they want to believe.
I can understand that and partially agree. Really I believe the artist had to choose between A: focusing on her "mage" like capabilities or B: Focusing on the fact that she's one of the horsemen, thus has a similar armor type. At the very least, her armor is nowhere near as bulky and heavy looking as War's, so there is that. We may actually see the more "mage" look when she goes into her Chaos form, which is something they've yet to show.
There may also be optional armor sets that may sway into the Mage territory more, but that's pure speculation on my part. We'll just have to see.
The problem is, the Horsemen's armors aren't the same. In Darksiders 2, Death started out with some very basic costume that was absolutely bereft of armor, and depending on how you built him, he would either wear elaborate sorcerer robes or armor fitting of a death knight. Even with a redesign, they could have made Fury retain that magely feel while covering her up - say taking her old design, but making it a little less revealing, instead of giving her a full suit of armor.
Well for one, the redesign wasn't meant to "cover her up". It was only meant to have her appearance be in sync with the other Horsemen. And, a FULL suit of armor? No. Her outfit is nowhere near "full suit" tier. Even War, who's the most armored of them all, doesn't have a full suit of armor since he doesn't wear a helmet. Fury's armor is basically a form-fitting chestplate, gauntlets, greaves, and a decorative loincloth. Her arms and face are mostly exposed, thus not a full suit of armor. Oh, and she wears heels. Heels. I guess you can argue they're armored heels, but...they're still heels.
Either way, whether you disagree with the change or not is your opinion, and that's fine. Could the artist have made her wear more cloth than metal? Sure. But he didn't. You'll have to take it up with him on that point. One thing to keep in mind though, is that these changes may have something to do with her way of fighting. Gameplay so far shows her whipping things to death, but we don't know what all of Fury's abilities will be in the game yet. What we DO know, according to the wiki, is that she's a blade mage and her weapon can transform to suit her needs. This fact alone gives credence to her need for at least some form of armor, as her typical fighting style is close quarters.
As for Death's default armor, it still had the same symbols (Skulls and etc) as War's and now Fury's, only it was mainly seen on his leggings and boots since he was shirtless at the start. However the majority of armor you did find for him had the same motifs and all of them varying in degrees of "armored". Even the mage-y armors had an armored look to them. Also, Death is known for being the Necromancer of the group. His lack of armor at the start kind of feeds into the fact that he's more magically inclined than his brother War and maybe even Fury.
Currently we don't know exactly if Fury will have the same options in equipment (unless that was said somewhere and I didn't see it), but whether she does or not won't really change anything, as at this point we're arguing opinions. It's my opinion that she looks perfectly fine. She still has the sexy factor, and I personally akin her to a battle mage in appearance - armored, but not a tank. Seeing as the wiki states that she's a blade mage, that kinda fits. Her original design was fine too, but I'm quite happy with this new one.
