Would you prefer the anvil or the taser for your punishment?

1.Velvet.
2.As someone who's played the game, she doesn't really feel cold or heat anymore, and her mind is wrapped around her fixation on getting revenge, she doesn't really care about much else for the first few hours, besides, the outfit comes from whatever she could get her hands on in the prison when she escaped, so she just went with what she could find I guess.

Of course as I type this, this could all be a joke or something and here I come looking like the Super Serious guy,......

I mean, it probably is a joke but there IS a reason for her clothes. On the other hand you could just say that's an "excuse" to have her in clothes like that.

It's totally an excuse. She's had ample time, resources, opportunity, and pragmatic motivation to buy some real clothes.

Pragmatic motivation? She doesn't care. There is a skit where Eleanor brings it up and Velvet is like whatever. I don't get hot or cold .


FYI you can change her outfit whenever you want back to the one she wears in the prologue.

Her pragmatic motivation is to not sabotage her own goals by looking like a fucking weirdo - something that does come up, and gets glossed over because the devs are invested in this signature look. She needs to be nondescript, but nondescript doesn't look good in vidya gaem covers.

She still doesn't care. She's pretty much indifferent to people knowing what her goals are, where she's going, and what she's planning. Mostly because she has no doubts that she can crush whatever comes her way.

Bienfu was revealed to be reporting on their locations and destinations and she was like whatevs.

Pretty much chalking that off to excuses on the developers part. She has every reason to care, and isn't characterized as being so disorganized in thinking and so confident - at least not at first, when the costume change would be most relevant anyway.

Well I dunno about confident, to me for the first few hours, it seems more like her brain is just wrapped up in revenge and wanting to slaughter Artorius, So naturally it seems if something didn't get in the way of that revenge, she wouldn't care, if something DID get in her way, she'd take care of it ASAP.

Course, I haven't beaten the story yet or seen all the skits yet, so eh, what do I fully know?.

She pretty much does but it does end up getting glossed over because a) maintaining the aesthetic because video games, and b) after the party gets a bit larger it starts to look like a band of weirdos anyway, so they decide it doesn't really matter. There was a whole cutscene where they pretended to be a group of performers to get suspicion away from them.

*facepalm*

Velvet outright says the direct approach would be "certain death". Even Magilou looks askance on her "playing it safe" disappointed that Velvet didn't "straight up pounce on him". And this is after her inability to blend has been a liability. Twice.

I'm not exactly taking liberties with a vague text here.

Like jeez you guys, fuck right off.

Okay and how does dressing strangely correlate to a direct approach? They're not trying to be sneaky but they're also not going to storm the front gates of the castle because yeah that would be suicide. Their approach for a large part of the game is to make a racket in other places to lure artorius to them.There isn't much subtlety to what they're doing.

from what i remember from the game. She was wearing normal cloths and then she was thrown into the pit to waste because she was turning into a beast. As time go on her cloth started to shread, because age and she had to fight other monster that where thrown into that pit.


But i don't remember so much cleavage in her original cloths.

That's her tattered everyday clothes from the prologue. As for the clothes she wears throughout the game they're literal rags she found in the prison.

I do/did acknowledge that it's most relevant early on, but just because it's not relevant for a large chunk of the game is beside the point: Velvet doesn't know that. What she does know is that she has to operate in the capital for an indefinite period without getting discovered, and that an unknown number of entities are already aware of her presence and motives.

Yeah but these are the same people that didn't bother to get papers before entering the city. It's not like they were stopped because they dressed weird.

It's a better excuse than the one given for Quiet. <_<
