Don't get me wrong, I'm really looking fwd to an RPG without stupid evil wizards and without fighting swarms of skeletons every few metres. But wizards, dragons, dungeons, magical artifacts, enchanting, conjuring, skeletons, zombies, elementals, giant rats......quantitatively speaking that's a lot of content and a lot variety removed. What will make up for it? A complex crafting system? Horse training? Bear taming? Sewing, stitching, blacksmithing, playing lute?

Hopefully more complex simulation. For most CRPGs variety only compensates the lack of depth.

Pretty much. If they do their research and try to emulate as much as possible Medieval Bohemia, this will be far more interresting, pretty, complex and deep than even great fantasy stories.

Realism beats fantasy anytime. It's just harder to pull off correctly because you aren't just pulling stuff out of your ass.

Also nothing beats the art of these times develloped and perfected over centuries, that you can simply copy paste in the game, versus whatever random fantasy artstyle 5 uncultured interns could spew in a week.

 

[Grotesque]

I like how the woman at the beginning has a cleavage worthy of a mighty whore.
But then again, maybe she's in heat and wants to invite rape in her life (this being her fetish and all).

 

[Excidium]

If you're going to have women in your game they might as well have a nice cleavage.

Kwan Detected cause Medieval Womyn were dressed in Burkas:

:kwanzania: Worse Prudes and perverts than Saudi Barbarians Commissar thinks. Decided to not back this poject given that they have Investor and have enough Jewgold already but will follow this project; Husite Wars were far more interesting and in some way fantastic that Dragons and gay elves stuff.

 

[Grotesque]

So you take the porn of that era to sustain the argument of how the average hard working girl tending a mill was dressing. Got it.
That cleavage is just as realistic in this game as bikini armour is realistic and functional in your average fantasy role playing game.

There is no scientific proof that distraction armor bonus doesn't work.

So medieval average girls didn't have a cleavage? Not a single one? Anywhere? Ever? Really? You sure?

And that's how the biggest thread about cleavages in the Codex history had been started.

 

[Darkzone]

Commissar Draco.
I don't want to support the position, that Grotesque does inherit, but the art you are showing, from the hollendish meister's, is not a depiction of the dresses worn by Cech woman, in the late medival time.
This is art, past the age of early renaissance in the 15-16th century, and depicts some dress worn in the 17th century. And the renaissance, was known for broadening up the moral values, from previous times.
But as all things do change, so do the dress worn by woman, and different cultures equals different dresses. Also the slav's were known for a loss and frivole behavior, they have often been compared to bunny's in this aspect. (Naturally this was done to descredit them.)
So yes Witcher is not so far off, at least, in this aspect. Hmm this seems even to apply in our times. (naturally with some restrictions).
I personaly don't have a problem with womans breast, quite the opposite. So i even prefer this kind of depiction.
But the next time, please be more accurate.

Also to all.
This is not about the Hussit wars, because this is the year 1403 and not between the years from 1419 to 1439. The Jan Hus incident was in 1415, and not before 1403.

 

[Commissar Draco]

Some Clevage from more Ages:

Anna of Kiev ca M2 090 Cristine of Pisa M2 407 So called ''Holy'' "Roman'' ''Empire'' ca M2 474

Take note that just as in game tits might be shown but legs and especially hair should not, BTW game begins in 1403 AD IRC.

 

[Darkzone]

Yes in the first case. In the second case this seems to be some kind of garment.
But it would be also very difficult to find something more frivole, than the burka, because in the most cases the Mäzen (Patrons) were from patrizian families, which certainly would not wanted to be associated with pruient behavior, or some mighty nobles that had also the same thoughts, or the church.
I have also searched the Böhmische Malerschule for a more free depiction, but did it was in vain. But as such, that does not mean anything at all.
Because poor working woman (miller's daughters) did not wear burkas to work, and artist do not depict often what is, but what the one who pays them, wants to see.
And a search for a depiction by a italian artist from the period in the italian peninsula, would be also no evidence at all.
But the first picture and the third, could be used as a evidence, for woman showing more than the neck.
The first because of the slavic connection and the third because of the HRE connection. Together they contribut to a very strong defence of our position.

Note taken. And yes the game is in 1403 AD as i stated before, that does not mean that the the third act may not end in the Hussit wars.

Medieval people shat next to one another, went to mixed public bath, slept together with family and guests nude in the same big bed, wore crotch enhancing clothes, had pointed toed shoes that were supposed to represent erected cocks, priest owned brothels, people would parade naked on speacial occasion (including priests)...
And some would be surprised by a peasant girl's cleavage?

It's one of the least prudish period in history. Noblewomen had peasant girl to breastfed their child and smaller, more discrete breast were a noble's fashion. Pesant girl on the other hand would not hesitate to show off god's present that would feed a dozen big healthy babies.

I give this thread two pages before somebody mentions Foucault's History of Sexuality.

Unlike today Heterosex and Masculinity were not socially shuned but deviants like Sodomites and Zoophiles were burned; Comrade Lyric Suite is right Medieval times were
