I’ve seen someone say the reason men will play the game and enjoy it is comparable to when you have a game like for example Dark Souls and you eventually have people calling it Fashion Souls or the amount of effort someone puts in to dress up their character in an MMO.

Makes alot of sense when you look at it like that

I didn't know dark souls had a fashion side, cute!! I genuinely never knew that.

I personally play a lot of cyberpunk2077 and while yes, I have beaten the game several times on different difficulties, sometimes I just wanna play dress up and take pics lmaoooo

It gets to the point in dark souls that people will forego equipment with better stats because it doesn't look good with the rest of their gear. There have also always been some people who name their characters "fashion police" and invade other people's worlds just to inspect their drip. If they pass the inspection they get a round of applause or a positive gesture. Maybe even some bits of rare items. If they fail the "police" will either drop gear that will make the set look better, or just outright attack them for their crimes against fashion. It's always a good time when you see " Invaded by fashion police" pop up lol.

There are some pretty funny videos on YouTube with them. Just search "fashion police elden ring" or "fashion police dark souls" and a bunch of them pop up.
