Better question:

Why do Knights of the Blazing Sun look like metal encased Vegas Showgirls while Chosen look like metal encased blood thirsty WWF wrestlers?

Yeah.... (for the record, I love the look of the KoBS. But I'm in the minority. ;) )

He looks funny because he is missing his horse. On foot they look out of place and over-dressed. The Vegas-Style Feathers are out of place... unless he's 10 feet in the air on a war horse.


The screenshots of the Model for in game look ugly and anorexic. I hope they fix that and beef him up for the sake of the in-game visual qualities. Small, refined details are often lost on characters and objects being displayed on a monitor. Part of the reason I think the Chosen looks as good as he does in game is because all of his features are exagerated and oversized. He's big, his details are simple and clearly defined.

All that fancy and delicate metal work that makes the KotBS look good in artwork are lost in game on a monitor and he ends up looking like a knight who is a vegas showgirl at heart.

KotBS is too Don Quijote for me.

Sure, Chosen look badass, but their souls are forfeit. Also, they are terrible parents and no one loves them. True story.

The Black Orc armor is pretty badass looking. The higher end armor sets make them look like some kind of insane mech or something.

oddly enough, ask an orc and he will tell you they were actually going FOR the walking trashcan look.
