Most of the Contemporary Era culture outfits for your avatar are just a suit, a different colored tie, and a flag pin, which feels really bland compared to how awesome the outfits for previous cultures are. I think there are plenty of ways to keep the Contemporary outfits flavorful while also keeping them realistic. For example, you could give a Chinese leader a Mao suit, an Indian leader a sari, and an American leader a B2 bomber jacket without really sacrificing anything in terms of immersion, and there are definitely analogues for the other contemporary cultures.

To an extent, I'd really like these changes, at least as an option.

While I agree with some of the ideas you proposed, there are some I would like to disagree with or add.


While most contemporary era outfits are the same suit and tie with a flag pin, some are unique. For example, the Cubans have a military uniform and the Nigerians have traditional tribal clothes. While you want some changes, I think the developers wanted to reflect an image of most modern politicians. For example, I would be hard to find a outfit for female avatars as the leaders of the contemporary Chinese, Turks, Egyptians or Soviets to the lack of female leaders of their countries as most of them were ruled by men.


There are some ideas I would like to add to your line of thought. The leader of Brazil should wear the presidential sash of green and blue like president Lula de Silva as of time or writing. The male leaders of Australia should wear an outfit similar to Australian prime minister John Curtin, who served during the Second World War. As for other ideas for alternative outfits, I need some more input, time and research.


Besides these remarks, I think having a Mao suit for the Chinese and saris for the Indians is a great idea. I question and alternative outfit for the Soviets with having a normal suit and tie like Lenin, Khrushchev, Brezhnev, and Gorbachev compared to Soviet military uniforms of Yosef Stalin, Zakharov, and Zhukov. I just disapprove of having a American Bomber jacket as an alternative outfit for the Americans, but if anyone has some additional comments for me, please leave them below.
