Canonical outfit[edit source]

I have a batch of images for this quest ready to upload, but I want to note ahead of time that Kassandra is equipped differently from the images we have currently. I donned her in the Armor of the Fallen in my playthrough. It's important to remember that while the default outfit is the safest choice for a player to wear when taking pictures for the wiki, it is not always the outfit most likely to be canonical in every situation. In this case, Kassandra needs to be wearing the Armor of the Fallen to be able to move through the Tartaros Veils blocking access to all these guardians (with the exception of Perseus), and this is an established point in the plot.

However, as I was telling Cristophorus yesterday, I'm starting to lean towards being laxer about what the protagonists wear in our images because a greater issue on our wiki is the absence of images, and if it is too inconvenient to demand that every image be "perfect", I'm prepared to make concessions about it. When it comes down the RPG installments, there are actually many cases where I dispute that the default outfit is most likely to be canonical. (One good example is the "The Simple Life", where the game automatically switches Kassandra to normal clothes for the memory.) In addition, there's been confusion over accessories and level of gear. In Origins, it's too much of a burden for editors to guess when Bayek should have a specific level of the Hidden Blade and then to meticulously control for that every step of the way in the story. Leaving it never upgraded is also not a good solution. Likewise, for this quest here, I may have equipped the "wrong bow" for my images because I really couldn't guess what it would be. So, I think we should be prepared to be more lenient about these details, provided that Kassandra is wearing sets and not mumble-jumble, and there is some reasoning to the equipment chosen.

I won't ask for the images where Kassandra is wearing the default outfit in this memory to be taken down, and I hope everyone is fine with me uploading images where she is wearing the Armor of the Fallen. I'm even okay with the memory showing Kassandra inconsistently wearing the default outfit and the Armor of the Fallen, as non-ideal that is. It's probably too much of a burden for everyone to be exacting about these details with such massive games. Sol Pacificus(Cyfiero) 22:07, 6 July 2023 (UTC)
