However want I really want is the ability to do the content without joining a discord and the freedom to learn it through experience instead essentially memorizing it beforehand. This feels like fomo punishment

personally a big fan of the design of the grineer and corpus factions in warframe and how unique they look as generic enemies. very strong aesthetic and the game does a good job differentiating between the factions.
Anonymous No.715006134

Depends.
late medieval/renaissance armor could stop musket fire, and a well made suit would likely stop most pistol calibers and maybe even shotgun slugs, but not modern rifles.
modern armor is categorized based on what its rated for. lvl1 plates can stop some pistol calibres while lvl4 plates are rated up to battle rifles and most ap rounds below battle rifles.

The term 'bulletproof' supposedly comes from the renaissance period (?) when early muskets were first used in abundance; armor makers would literally shoot their armor with a gun as 'proof' it would stop a bullet.

Souls games aesthetics peaked with this set and they've been chasing that and failing to catch it ever since.

Pretty much all of the armor in Nioh is a good balance of verisimilitude and style. Not lot of it is historical but a lot of them are close enough that they're recognizable, while also looking good on their own.

6 recovered, imo. Not for every character, but they pulled back a lot of the excess of 4 and 5. SC2 is the best overall for sure though, with some excellent designs in 3. SC3 Default Yoshi is my favorite look of his.

If the Carian Knight set didn't have that dumb antenna, it'd be the best armor they ever designed.
I just swap the helmet out for the standard knight helmet and roll on.

Far and away one of the better sets in Elden Ring because that game has some fucking awful looking armors.

I like how they are Liquid's personal guard, and they care PDWs.
