I do understand this might seem like a silly trivial complaint. But weirdly enough, one of the biggest things to annoy me while playing the game for over 100 hours as of yet is seeing so little clothing variety on npc's. It broke my immersion quite a bit seeing like 50 ncp's wearing the exact same clothes then run into another 50 wearing the exact same clothes too. I do know this has been a prevalent thing in past Bethesda games too, but for a next gen game it's disappointing in my opinion and you'd think they'd have more clothing to spice up ncp's. Hopefully dlc's and mod's add more variety to the npc's.

i know what you mean but at least it gives you the option of sorting it out part way by dressing your settlers. Although to be fair on my play through, i dressed all my settlers up in every settlement like gunners, army/military fatigues and combat armour.

I speculate this is the reason why they didn't include manikins as they did in Skyrim, nothing spectacular to display in the way of clothing. I personally think the attire & guns are all too limited for such a vast game.

Not quite the same as your complaint, but tangentially related: I wish there were more clothing options. The only decent-looking Charisma outfit I can put together is the Clean Black Suit, Black Rimmed Glasses, and a Formal Hat. However, the single best Charisma outfit uses the Summer Top or Trunks or whatever, 4 Sharp legendary armor pieces, a Charisma hat, and Charisma glasses. I'm not sure that it's even possible to get anything that doesn't look like a complete train wreck while using that Summer thing.

No wonder people use PAs so much.

Huh, and I was thinking there were lots of clothes. But I guess most of them don't spawn on people, they're just in loot. I've got piles of different suits & dresses in a chest in my base, plus the various under-armors, military outfits, athetic & baseball outfits, etc.

(or perhaps that it's not much variety in armor, so outside "safe" cities, people aren't wearing too many different things.)

....the raiders feels like a big part of it. FO3, there were half a dozen Raider armors, and now the raiders are all mostly wearing layered armor, so it's all the similar-looking "Leathers/longjohns + bits" thing. And the Gunners are the same just with a bit more harnesses/fatigues & combat armor bits.

Just tell me about the damn hoods man! How can I dress like a Jedi pre-GECK to look like a sith who just fell out of a wormhole

I just hope they have some nice dresses and hats. My character will want to dress like a lady on occasion.

Decent selection of dresses, but I have yet to see a women's hat.

It's a problem in almost every single open world RPG with lots of NPCs. Fortunately we have modding tools to look forward to, because I doubt it is very high on Bethesda's list, if at all.

Nice dresses.. yes, plenty. No real hat options for women though. Just a lot of man hats.

All in all, I'd like to see more helmets.. There's basically one helmet for each armor type, (except leather which has no helmet at all,) and then two options for synth helmets. You then have some other random helmets strewn about but none of them are very.. ... cool looking? I mostly feel like my character looks like a dork when wearing any of the helmets. "Ahhh.. what? That looked so cool on that guy.. Why's it make me look so dorky?"

Oh noes! I must find a hat or bribe a modder to make a selection of women's hats.

Heh, yeah. My character is currently running around in a ballistic-weave Laundered Denim Dress with the Militia hat and a pair of sunglasses. With a regular hunting rifle, she looks like she could be from New Vegas or somewhere else Old West-y.

What is ''PAs'' ?

You get Reginald's Suit (Agatha's Dress for a female character) after completing the Trinity Tower quest near Diamond City. It's obviously a matter of opinion, but I really like the way it looks. It also grants +3 charisma, which is better than the clean black suit, clean gray suit, or whatever other color. I combine it with a trillby hat (another +2), which I really like (and can be given ballistic weave upgrade later on), and the fashionable sunglasses (another +1). That gives you a total of +5 charisma, and looks pretty good in my opinion. The glasses look kind of corny, but they're not that bad. I think this is the most you can boost your charisma with an outfit.

There are a good number of them. The sequin dress and the red dress are the 'sixiest' dresses in the game I think. They both grant +2 charisma as well as I recall. I'm a male, so I don't wear them personally, but I haven them for Piper, Cait, and Curie. Agatha's Dress (+3 charisma) is a unique one that's basically a variant on the sequin dress and is awarded to female characters after completing the Trinity Tower mission, as I mentioned above.

I haven't seen any women's hats specifically, but overall there are a decent number of hat options in the game. I like the trillby hat and the newsboy cap personally.

Power Armors.

I personnally haven't touched power armors since the first one you find. I brought another at my settlement and that's it. Never use them, so yeah, clothing is important for me.

Gone is that big ass woman's hat from Fallout 3 it seems. What a shame

Never cared for dress-up in games. I'm too pragmatic for that in games. I think there is a decent amount of civilian clothing in the game, tho.

Yeah clothing in this game is nothing to shout about, I have a thumbs up for the army and military fatigues but the part that really killed me was the bomber jacket.

I thought it counted as a type of armor or such and could wear it over clothing....

Lets just say the reality of the bomber jacket disgusted me.

Sort of disappointed that there isn't a Stripped version of Kellogg's Armor so that we could mount our own gear onto it. Then again, I'm a svcker for leather Jackets.

+1. I totally agree

I am still hoping Beth will change clothing/outfits so they can be used with all layers of armor.

Really don't care about a little clipping or overpower, if its too immersion breaking i just remove the armor or use something else (or nothing ).

Clothing was pretty limited in the scope FO's universe is kind of shooting for as is, not surprised. and the only reason I'm not complaining is because we finally have Piece-meal armor again....after over a decade since Morrowind.

There's a good handful of nice dresses and a very beautiful red dress in the game. Plus hats to go with the normal nice dresses. (The red dress isn't good with hats. You just gotta have the hair to go with it).

I personally wish some more of the clothing options had the ability to layer armor. Why can you layer armor on the jeans and flannel, but not the flannel and khakis?
