Commentary
What? That's how clothing works! It resizes to fit you, and will change styles depending on your gender identity!
Of course, due to the limitations of video games, that means only two styles. Meanwhile, a single shirt in real life could wind up a whole bunch of styles depending on who wears it and when, assuming it even remains a shirt!
Really, I think this comic just needs the first two panels, but room to spare, so we get bonus Susan and Justin. Huzzah!
And yes, I will never stop experimenting with characters wearing crop top jackets and shirts.

Justin's uncle wouldn't mind. He's the guy who established "yeah, just wear some manner of black shirt" as an employee dress code, after all.

I was wondering about that myself, I doubt Justin's Uncle would approve that as a workshirt on general principle, assuming Justin's on the Job when that conversation took place.

...and the specific page is <b>http://cheer.sailorsun.org/?comic=cheer-275</b>...

Actually, the sequence begins at <b>http://cheer.sailorsun.org/?comic=cheer-264</b>. TVTropes, in its entry for "Suspiciously Specific Denial" quotes <i>Cheer</i> as a perfect example: "I have no idea how that moose got in the dance team's dressing room."

Nope - <i>Cheer!</i> was a webcomic that spun off from the webcomic <i>The Wotch</i> - about four cheerleaders who started out as obnoxious jocks until they pissed off Anne {The Wotch} and got transformed. The sequence {the final, incomplete sequence} i was referring to starts at http://cheer.sailorsun.org The comic begins at http://cheer.sailorsun.org/?comic=cheer. And <i>The Wotch</i>, for more transformation-based goodness, is at https://www.thewotch.com/

Alas, I can't find this anywhere. Are you talking about the TV series Cheer?

With his hairstyle, it was going to happen eventually anyway... ;)

The Future Trunks look, I can dig it

My favorite series on this topic (they're short, about a minute each) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-vI5tdORhC0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Yh35uWLBQ8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=obAd0zAFMTI

I understand that MWM is planning much the same for City of Titans, only more so.

I know of at least one example based on character class rather than gender: the original "Diablo." Metallic armor suitable for a knight looks like a cloak on the sorcerer.

Morrowind had skirts and pants available to everyone. Stupid Bethesda got rid of that for no reason. Oh well. I’ll always have Saints Row.

I mean that's not totally innacurate considering that it's ostensibly a Superhero game. That 4' person could be Kryptonian or whatever and easily overpower people many times their size.

The old and recently revived game City of Heroes had a huge number of styling options. But it had its own brand of weirdness. Because it had no "gear" just abstract "enhancements" a characters appearance had nothing to do with the way they played. A character could be a 7' tall giant in battle armor, but their combat abilities would be the same if they were 4' tall in their underwear.

I'm really not sure, myself, though it depends on how you interpret it. I imagine it as a light material. As a thick material, I could see potential issues, especially when sitting back against a chair.

So what you're saying is, video games should have much wider styling options regarding clothing?

Does anyone else think Justin's outfit would be highly uncomfortable? I get the jibblies thinking about wearing a cropped jacket like that, for some reason.

I'm remembering the armour Lydia took off the big ugly orc when she and Alex were in the game near the end of <i>CHEER!</i>...
