RPGs where pants and boots aren't glued together

Is this thread like a weird kink thing that I don't understand

Paperdoll dress-up games are a thing. It may be borrowed as a convenient way to represent inventory in RPGs but there is still a vanity aspect to it IMO. I mean, come on...

Any games with Left and Right boot slots?

 

[JarlFrank]

What if I have an odd compulsion to play as a barefoot but otherwise fully-dressed character, and am forced to also go pantsless to fulfill my odd fetish because of lazy devs?

Thank you for thinking about me in the making of this thread

It's truly annoying when I want to play a party of barefoot chicks but removing the boots also removes their pants. It just looks silly and ridiculous.
A better solution is when games fuse the pants with the chest armor.

But ideally, a game would have 16 equipment slots like Morrowind.

NeoScavenger

Tranny is again, boots, no pants. Pants model depends on a body armor.

Spoiler

So the thread should probably be "where're my pants and why all saviors of the world are mooners?"

Edit:

What about the cockring slot?

Some people here don't understand the issue. Here are some examples off the top of my head:

- in Valheim, boots are part of the pants slot. If you don't wanna walk around bare-bottom, you can't be barefoot. Your chick HAS to wear boots unless you want her entirely pantless.
- in Divinity 2 IIRC, pants were also part of the boots. Same with Original Sin (IIRC). Remove your girl's boots, and she's gonna be fully bare-legged from the ass down.

I don't play male characters, I don't need that slot

I think it's even a more legitimate matter it may seem - I love post-apo games where scavenging is a major thing and you have to make due with what you find, and for example in above mentioned NeoScavanger I died several times from issues regarding boots specifically - like tripping on a flip-flop or foot wounds & infections.

Heaps of games have boots or shoes. Pretty standard magic items really. Which games don’t?

Pretty much this, if you have a paper doll setup most games separate pants and boots

Many of them don't have material assets for boots/gloves/pants(& rings, necklaces etc even cloaks), final model is dictated by the torse(and maybe pants) item so usually you have footwear and maybe gloves rendered even if you don't have anything in the respective slots.

Not sure what your point is, I've played dozen of RPGs from old to new that have shoes you can put on your paper dolls. Games that fuse pants and shoes, I don't remember as much

Talking about the visuals; in many games especially with top down gameplay most clothing on body is dictated by the main clothing item(which uses the torse or torse/legs combined slot) and rest don't have visuals(apart from head and cloak items usually) so if you are wearing your main item you won't be barefeet visually when you don't have shoes in the slot.

What about Garrett?

ToEE is a notable exception.

Games where I can't create my own character are exceptions, of course.
Those don't tend to be RPGs though so you don't have equipment slots.

Just do what gothic did. Everything is just one piece of clothing (except rings and shit)

Your chick HAS to wear boots unless you want her entirely pantless.

Why are you complaining about a chick with no pants?

That moment was very embarrassing, don't remind me of it. At least Largo didn't catch me with my pants down.

Because chicks get cold.

Cause there's nothing sexier than a fully clothed woman with only her feet exposed

For most of us that's not a problem

My answer to most of these questions is usually the same, EverQuest. And I think Morrowind and similar games are what drove the depth out of gaming.

EQ: Left earring, helm, mask, right ear, necklace, back/cloak, shoulder, right wrist, boots, gloves, leggings, left bracer, belt, arms, chest. Then 2 held items, optional ranged weapon, ammo for it, and inventory.

Notice the 6 different types of resistances too.

Actually they can get rheumatism, when they have whole legs exposed in too cold weather. It takes about 10 years.

You play as a chick? Gross.
