Design choices in games

If you read my Darksiders review, I pick on War's outfit and attributes. This is something that annoys me with a lot of games today, they seem to try too hard to make everything look cool, when ultimately some of the design choices end up looking really dumb. War looks way too detailed, and his outfit is both impractical and probalbly incredible uncomfortable.

Say you kill people for a living (with swords etc.), would you be wearing what War has going on and be about as speedy and agile as a tank, or would you maybe dress light and focus on, you know, not getting fuc*ing hit by everything that moves. Plus how hard would it be to get dressed every morning. The fact that he even bothers is a true testimate to his stubbornness.

I mean look at other similar game protagonists like Kratos or Bayonetta. They don't F*ck around with armored cars strapped to themselves, or swords the size of my penis All it does is making War seem like such a wuss in comparison, which we can't have.
