Informed Equipment	comment	A video game playable character has quite a few sprites (2D) / skins and models (3D) to deal with, which makes it hard to justify changing that valuable art for something as fickle as equipment. Drawing a 2D hero in the starting armor and the most powerful armor alone would double the sprite count for every frame of the hero doing everything in almost every direction; this only gets worse with combinations of different types of equipment. Some 2D titles ameliorate this by superimposing sprites on top of each other, or relying on Palette Swapping. Three-dimensional models make this far easier to avoid, since you can simply change textures/skins, or bolt extra models onto the same skeleton, while reusing animations. As a result, the hero you see on the game screen usually doesn't represent the hero you see on the equipment screen. It's become so ridiculous that some games will just skip giving the heroes any body armor at all, which is okay because they're heroes and heroes are Made of Iron. Still, by the end of the game, it can be hard to excuse your hero bumbling around in civilian clothes while going up against the 10-story Superboss. This trope seems to be fading as 3D graphics become more common, space becomes cheaper, and game engine-rendered realtime cutscenes become more prevalent. 3D models are completely free of the exponential increase in artwork that plagued games with single-sprite 2D models, as each additional piece of equipment can be simply added rather than having to re-create every permutation of animation; on the other hand, weaponry and equipment not currently in use are often ignored in third-person games so player characters don't look ridiculous having four full-size rifles dangling off various parts of their body. In addition, armor is often intentionally left Informed Equipment to maintain a recognizable image associated with a character and avoid hiding their face. Super-Trope to Equipment-Hiding Fashion, where the player can deliberately invoke this trope to better customize their character. Compare No Cutscene Inventory Inertia, where occurrences of this trope are limited to cutscenes, and the more general Limited Wardrobe. Contrast Virtual Paper Doll, Rainbow Pimp Gear (all gear is visible, and the game lets you mix and match as you like).

Informed Equipment / int_14d341dc	comment	Star Trek Online plays it straight... for the Klingons and Romulans — they've yet to get models for the in-game armor, so they're still wearing their usual clothing. Federation players avert this as their armor and gear will appear on them, but you can set it so that it goes back to their normal outfits. That has changed in recent updates. Armor and Kit pieces have been added to the Tailor options for all player characters, allowing you to have an armored / geared up look as one of your switchable outfits. This replaces the former "Show / Hide Armor Visuals" toggle as described above, and it allows full customization of armor. On the other hand, it unfortunately removed a convenient way for players to have a "standard uniform/combat ready" switch for the player's NPC landing party. You can save an armored costume for your landing party characters, but those saved outfits can only be accessed at a Tailor making it impossible to switch on the fly when going from casual scenes where regular uniforms are appropriate to a more geared and ready look when going into combat.

Informed Equipment / int_1670bd19	comment	This is also usually the case for the first-person view itself; games like S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl and Unreal Tournament assume your character is always wearing fingerless gloves, no matter what armor in the former (even fully-enclosed Powered Armor gives you fingerless gloves) or model in the latter (you always appear as a regular white guy with no sleeves on whether your model is a regular Caucasian human, a deathly-pale Necris, a human/Skaarj hybrid or a Nali cow) you're using. Later games have managed to avert this in various ways — some (Unreal Tournament 2004) go back to the GoldenEye idea of not showing any hands on your gun at all, while others (Left 4 Dead, the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. sequels, and the above Call of Duty post-Modern Warfare) change the appearance of the arms holding the gun depending on what character you play as or what your character is actually wearing.

A few armors or armor combinations do change the character sprites, though most of these are for Jessica, for some reason. The Updated Re Release made it so that everyone in the party has at least one different costume, however, the initial female character still has the most options.

Informed Equipment / int_1adee40d	comment	Played painfully straight in The World Ends with You, where fashion is one of the key themes in the game. You could have Neku clad head to toe in punk clothing, bargain bin quality threads or even wearing a pink frilly dress, but he'll still be wearing his normal garb in-game and in cutscenes. Oddly enough, there's a point in the game where your objective is to talk to a support Reaper while fully dressed in clothes from one specific brand. The dialogue you get when talking to said Reaper has him comment on how the outfit you put together suits you well. Even though that brand has nothing to do with Neku's cutscene outfit. Also, the clothes actually shown on Neku's sprite are purchasable, but only relatively late in the game, when you can access the Jupiter of the Monkey shop. So you need to buy a second set of these clothes to benefit from them, even though Neku is clearly wearing one already. The sequel continues this trend. For example, on the last day of Week 2, a Reaper asks you to wear a piece of Gatto Nero clothing to get through. Shoka, who has just joined your party notes that it's a "piece of cake," due to wearing Gatto Nero clothing(specifically a Mr. Mew hoodie), but you will still have to put on a Gatto Nero thread in order to pass.

Its again not as helpful in multiplayer and even worse in CRPG as anyone wearing armour which has a metallic colour on it is probably too armoured for you to have hope of beating with your handful of rocks and pitchfork. All the horses have different appearances but are all the same to a player on foot as they attempt to dodge the instant kill lances.

Informed Equipment / int_2d644371	comment	The Tales Series usually displays weapons and, if the character wears any, shields. The original SNES Tales of Phantasia would show only the type of weapon Cless was wielding (sword, axe, spear or halberd) and just the presence of a shield, but the remakes changed that. In Tales of Symphonia the character's equipped weapons would be displayed in battle, but cutscenes would show the same ones they'd started with. The Hero gets his cutscene-weapon upgraded from his initial wooden swords to metal ones and later the Swords of Plot Advancement, but it's still not affected by what he's got equipped. Then, in Tales of the Abyss, the weapons would change in the cutscenes to the ones that are equipped. Back to straight in Tales of Hearts. Each character just has one evolving Empathic Weapon, but despite the shape of the weapon changing as it goes up in tiers, the battle sprite remains the same until you reach one of the final postgame forms. Tales of Vesperia displays the character's weapon and special equipment (Rita's spellbook, Karol's bag, etc) but still no armor, headgear or accessories. The PS3 port of Vesperia featured DLC that changed the characters' costumes, so they would look like they were wearing their most powerful armors. This is still only cosmetic, however; you can still have crappy armor equipped with this costume on.

Informed Equipment / int_2ffcbd43	comment	Played Straight and Averted depending on which Fire Emblem game you're playing. Some of the Fire Emblem games use one or two sprites/models for all weapons (Fire Emblem doesn't have "armor" as an item, basing defense purely on a character's stats) of each type in-battle, while others have unique sprites for each weapon. The first two games and portables generally fall in the former, while the SNES and later(non-portable) games fall in the latter. Interestingly, in the games where a single design is used regardless of the particular weapon a character has, the design itself tends to be different according to the class of the character using it, leading to two characters using the same weapon having it appear completely differently in-battle. In addition, the portraits of the characters do not reflect when the characters are promoted into an advanced class. Only few characters has different portraits when promoted like Ike from Ranger to Lord.

This is still only cosmetic, however; you can still have crappy armor equipped with this costume on.

Living Legends and Online have since fixed that, with missile racks changing in size depending on what is fitted, weapon barrels changing to indicate the type of laser or cannon, and so on.

Informed Equipment / int_3de84fce	comment	World of Warcraft (and many other MMORPGs): Every weapon, piece of armor, and article of clothing is rendered fully on each character in the game, excluding jewelry. Because of the overwhelming importance of having the ideal stat combinations from gear, however, this often resulted in Rainbow Pimp Gear for characters at all levels of the game. The Transmogrification feature introduced in patch 4.3 helped to resolve this by allowing players to customize their gear by replacing models and skins with those of other pieces of gear in their possession, with certain restrictions such as requiring both items to be of Uncommon or higher quality. Before transmogrification, roleplayers often kept separate sets of gear worn only for their appearance rather than their combat effectiveness, and many continue to maintain such sets due to incompatibilities with transmogrification's restrictions. Behind the scenes, this creates a great deal of additional work for the art team, as all new character models and changes to existing models must be compatible with every existing item model in the game, and new item models must be compatible with thirteen races times two genders (not to mention non-player races that make use of player armor, such as pre-Cataclysm goblins). Played straight by shapeshift forms, such as druids' animal forms and many gag items. Most shiftshifts have singular appearances (although druid forms have multiple color palettes) that use the same armor models (or lack thereof) regardless of what the player has equipped. Weapons typically still avert the trope, save for the case of druid forms (except for moonkin), which hide equipped weapons entirely.

In fact, you had numerous different types of armor along with those weapons, so as you progressed through the game, you got to see the characters in constantly changing outfits, though these outfits would mostly match the base clothes in style. You didn't get anyone in the nude, as the default armor was what they wore outside of combat, but considering how old the game is, it was a refreshing change to see all the different armors and weapons shown in battle. Not to mention that the equipment could look genuinely intimidating. Yes, even Gala's battle earrings. The sequel, Duel Saga, only has different models for the characters' weapons.

Tauren and draenei both have digitigrade hooves (on which traditional footwear would look odd); worgen in wolf form also exhibit a digitigrade stance (which would again make traditional footwear look odd; the boots appear normally when the worgen are in human form). Trolls simply prefer to go barefoot. Unlike other examples of this trope, however, equipping boots for these races actually does result in a graphical change; the footwear covers the ankles and part of the shin, but stops before the part of the foot that actually touches the ground. The tendency for trolls to go barefoot is referenced by a special transmogrification which turns a player's footwear invisible — "troll style", as the item's flavor text states. This item literally makes your boots Informed Equipment. Played straight with options to hide your character's helmet and cape which, if used, make those Informed Equipment. Also, smaller items (rings, trinkets, and amulet) are not rendered. A recent update allows shoulders and belts to be hidden as well. Mechagnomes have it even worse - the lower portion of whatever pants they wear isn't rendered to show their metal legs, making it look like they're wearing diapers instead of pants.

Where this gets taken further, however, is that when gameplay resumes he'll have put away whatever weapon you were using and still have the Operator in his hands. If you removed the Operator from your inventory completely, it will be back in slot one, having kicked out whatever weapon was there to make space. The M4 Custom is a rare accomplice to this as well, being the only long-arm he'll equip in cutscenes where he does so outside of maybe two exceptions; this essentially forces players who don't want to use the Operator and M4 Custom to dedicate two of their five weapon slots to those guns anyway, since they're going to find their way back after just about every cutscene.

For instance, females can wear the High-Cut Armor, and each also has a separate maid outfit. When you assign these armors to the characters, they tend to get a...bit...flustered. Some of the unique male armor also gets a less dramatic reaction (since none of it is anywhere near as Fanservice friendly).

However their weapons are all unique, with the ultimate weapons being extra cool-looking. The cast of Persona 4 actually do go adventuring in their summer uniforms if they're wearing them in the game (though you still can't go adventuring in their holiday clothes). 4 is pretty good about this: the gang use their school uniforms to smuggle equipment into Junes (The big department store that the gang likes to use as a base because it houses the safest entry to the TV world) because Youske and the protagonist once got arrested for waving around weapons in there. This is actually a fairly conceivable Handwave, as all the armor is usually magical or wearable under clothing, and most of the party members carry weapons that can be easily concealed. Nevertheless the Protagonist somehow sneaks enormous swords/baseball bats/golf clubs into Junes and Kanji is even worse. His first buyable weapon is a DESK. In the remake, Persona 4 Golden, "Outfit" became a seperate equipment slot and each character could wear different outfits that they had previously purchased or received, including swimsuits, holiday wear, and more.

Diablo II made a branch between early games with no or few extra models and later ones with piles of them, where each class had its own style of armor, and different types of armor each had a different look on each class. Items with abilities that associated with a particular — such as deep green for poison — reflected those colors on the character's model, as well. Handled ingeniously by splitting the models into different sections and sprites to have more combinations of equipment. Which ends up causing different parts of the character's body to be dyed in accordance with the item. Masks specifically end up dying your Necromancer's normally white hair various colors, and certain one-of-a-kind items will turn a Sorceresses hair into something that looks like a giant bleach-stained towel taped to her head.

In fact, this is largely a given if you're using miniatures for any RPG. Players strapped for cash might even resort to using whatever's on hand in place of minis. It's also not unknown to just not use miniatures at all; some players prefer to have the entire game play out solely in their collective imaginations, so a character may end up never being visually depicted at all or get at best a character portrait if their record sheet provides room for that and the player feels artistically inclined. This is of course one of the reasons many tabletop player characters end up carrying around implausible amounts of equipment — since nobody ever quite sees it except as a line of text with maybe an encumbrance value somewhere, it doesn't really "count".

Every armor in the game has its rendering for each of the available the player models, and each weapon is represented by the class model (small arms, spear, big arms, etc.) visibly wielded by characters. NPCs in the game are generally rendered according to the armor they wear. And averted in Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas where every armor used, even on NPCs will be shown and the same thing with the currently used weapon.

Not only do the various types of armor, shield and weaponry you can equip show up on your character in battle (and, for that matter, when wandering around the map) — but if you de-equip everything, your characters do, indeed, fight in the nude. Including that cute sorceress. It's little quirks like these that help to make the game a perfectly valid RPG, if you can get past the fact that every five minutes you'll be staring at a pair of badly drawn breasts. On the other hand, Ultima VII (and part two, and the expansion, and part two the expansion) have nude sprites available for the protagonist, which are shown at certain points as required by the plot, but cannot be accessed by simply removing all of your gear.

Any changes to the character's appearance are worked seamlessly into all of the game's cutscenes. Body armour, on the other hand, is invisible, even if you are naked from the waist up. Oddly averted in Grand Theft Auto IV. When Niko confronts Dimitri in the Revenge ending, the weapon he holds in the pre-execution cutscene is the same one you used to get the last hit. What makes this weird is that many players used the rocket launcher for its area-effecting ability to get around cover, so in the cutscene, Niko walks up to point blank range and waves the launcher in Dimitri's face like it's a pistol. Aside from that, the game works the same as its predecessor. Similarly, when facing Pegerino 2 missions later (in the Revenge ending), no matter what weapon you were using in the preceeding firefight Niko will have an AK-47 in the scene (even if you had the Carbine Rifle, which takes up the same weapon slot as the AK). In the end of Grand Theft Auto IV: The Lost and Damned no matter what pistol you have when you reach Billy, Johnny will be holding the automatic pistol in the scene. In Grand Theft Auto V, body armor is invisible. In Grand Theft Auto Online, however, any character that's supposed to have armor on will be seen having the appropriate type of armor over their shirt. Wearing a jacket can cover it up.

However, all items other than swords, shields, and clothing items are still hidden until you take them out. Link has a quiver for his arrows, but you can't see it — you only see the bow itself, and the arrow currently in use. This trope is particularly obvious when using the Skull Hammer in The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, as the hammer is not only invisible when not in use, it is as big as Link and cannot possibly be carried on his person unless he has Hammerspace pockets. Similarly, in games that feature the Iron Boots, he is only weighed down by them when actually wearing them. Carrying them on his person does nothing to affect his mass. Though The Legend of Zelda (1989) cartoon show actually showed in one episode that they DO have Hammerspace pockets, with the items shrinking in appearance to fit inside, then growing when they were taken back out.

However, your squadmates do still show up in their starting armor in a few cutscenes when they are not currently selected as active party members. Some of the alien squadmates will also show up in default armor while on your ship, the others wear either civilian clothes or crew uniforms. Private Jenkins' model, however, doesn't change based on his equipment. Given that the only ways you can have different items to give him are a New Game Plus (where you know not to bother) or using cheats, this is definitely reasonable.

But, it does play this trope straight in one very bizarre way. Throughout the game you can obtain alternate handguns, shotguns, assault rifles and the like, but, while every cutscene will accurately depict your character in almost every way, their weapons are prescripted. This can (and does) result in the player character using pistols they aren't carrying on a fairly regular basis.

There's also fashion gear (things like hoodies, trousers, Dragon Ball scouters, business suits and skimpy bikinis to name a few) which is intentionally made for this tab, as most of them have terrible stats and hardly useful skills.

Informed Equipment / int_8ee238c9	comment	Persona: This is mostly the case in Persona 3 during mission sequences (outside of missions they wear whatever is appropriate), but every character has a couple of outfits that change the character model's clothes as well. For instance, females can wear the High-Cut Armor, and each also has a separate maid outfit. When you assign these armors to the characters, they tend to get a...bit...flustered. Some of the unique male armor also gets a less dramatic reaction (since none of it is anywhere near as Fanservice friendly). Note that this only happened in the FES version — while the outfits do exist in the vanilla game, you can only get the reactions from the characters while their clothes stay the same. Persona 4 is only a little better; while the characters in Persona 3 have seasonal school uniforms and summer vs winter day clothes, they always go adventuring in their winter uniforms. However their weapons are all unique, with the ultimate weapons being extra cool-looking. The cast of Persona 4 actually do go adventuring in their summer uniforms if they're wearing them in the game (though you still can't go adventuring in their holiday clothes). 4 is pretty good about this: the gang use their school uniforms to smuggle equipment into Junes (The big department store that the gang likes to use as a base because it houses the safest entry to the TV world) because Youske and the protagonist once got arrested for waving around weapons in there. This is actually a fairly conceivable Handwave, as all the armor is usually magical or wearable under clothing, and most of the party members carry weapons that can be easily concealed. Nevertheless the Protagonist somehow sneaks enormous swords/baseball bats/golf clubs into Junes and Kanji is even worse. His first buyable weapon is a DESK. In the remake, Persona 4 Golden, "Outfit" became a seperate equipment slot and each character could wear different outfits that they had previously purchased or received, including swimsuits, holiday wear, and more.

Link has a quiver for his arrows, but you can't see it — you only see the bow itself, and the arrow currently in use. This trope is particularly obvious when using the Skull Hammer in The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, as the hammer is not only invisible when not in use, it is as big as Link and cannot possibly be carried on his person unless he has Hammerspace pockets. Similarly, in games that feature the Iron Boots, he is only weighed down by them when actually wearing them. Carrying them on his person does nothing to affect his mass.

Of course, that ignores that you're still lugging around upwards of ten weapons at any one time (and, similar to the later Call of Duty example above, the pistol is also slung across the back rather than near either hip).

Weapons rarely ever appeared in the prerendered sequences. Similarly, in Final Fantasy XIII-2, the cutscenes show changes to Noel's and Serah's equipped weapons. In Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Echoes of Time this trope is averted, as any armor, helmet or weapon you equip on any character actually shows, although you can't remove any of these, so no running in the nude or fighting barehanded. However no matter what a character is wearing, the icon of their face (next to their HP and MP on the top screen) remains the same. Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles has a semi-aversion with its weapons, but much like the above the clothing does not change. However, this was changed in the sequel Ring Of Fates, the first DS entry. Every piece of equipment you equip changes how the on-screen characters look. Final Fantasy: The 4 Heroes of Light boasts an aversion of this: weapons and armor equipped will change the character's model to match.

When Niko confronts Dimitri in the Revenge ending, the weapon he holds in the pre-execution cutscene is the same one you used to get the last hit. What makes this weird is that many players used the rocket launcher for its area-effecting ability to get around cover, so in the cutscene, Niko walks up to point blank range and waves the launcher in Dimitri's face like it's a pistol. Aside from that, the game works the same as its predecessor. Similarly, when facing Pegerino 2 missions later (in the Revenge ending), no matter what weapon you were using in the preceeding firefight Niko will have an AK-47 in the scene (even if you had the Carbine Rifle, which takes up the same weapon slot as the AK).

This can lead to some rather strange looks as you mix and match the things with the best stat gains. Dragon Quest VIII has unique weapons for each character, but mostly plays the trope straight as far as armor is concerned. A few armors or armor combinations do change the character sprites, though most of these are for Jessica, for some reason. The Updated Re Release made it so that everyone in the party has at least one different costume, however, the initial female character still has the most options. Dragon Quest XI brought back the certain armor sets give costumes from VIII, including the fact that Jade, the most fanservice-y female character, had the most costume options, although not by considerable amount compared to Jessica.

Ultima VII, on the other hand, didn't have separate sprites for the various kinds of armor and cloaks one could wear, but did have an actual nude sprite for characters. Ultima VII Part II: Serpent Isle did have a potent paperdoll system that depicted every piece of armor and almost every other item equipped, but the sprite showed no differences other than the weapon equipped. The Exult engine allowed this function for the previous The Black Gate too, which had one humorous side effect; if you recruited 13-year-old Spark, his paperdoll was still the default "huge muscular guy", with the head of a small boy.

However, the game doesn't make a physical distinction between the two and will have weapons appear to load the standard magazine at all times. ARMA III changed things so the magazine models do change to account for what kind of magazine you've actually loaded, but until an update in 2019, the game was selective about which weapons could exchange magazines (e.g. the sniper version of NATO's MX rifle couldn't take hundred-round magazines meant for the support-weapon version, even though that support weapon could take the standard 30-round magazines meant for the others), and they would also change colors to match the color of whatever weapon they were loaded into.

Informed Equipment / int_e5d5d23c	comment	Infamously present in many early shooters: The marine in Doom netgames was always shown carrying the same rifle normal zombies used, making it impossible for other players to tell what they were up against. There are some people working on combating this, for some Doom source-ports, and some mods (like Brutal Doom) have gone out of their way to give the player unique sprites for each individual weapon. A variation on this is the inability to tell what items a multiplayer opponent is carrying in reserve, allowing someone to romp around seemingly helpless with a pistol only to whip out a three foot long BFG at the last moment. A lot of games starting from when Halo 3 and Modern Warfare came out have fixed this to an extent by showing carried weapons (although not grenades and reserve ammo), and the latter also has the odd issue of pistols being stowed on a character's back rather than in a holster (although the upshot is that several games in that series also include ballistic shields, which continue protecting you from bullets to the back if you have the shield stowed on your back). Attachments on the weapons are still a frequent victim of this, where at best you can expect the dropped model of a weapon to show that it has a Grenade Launcher; otherwise your only recourse to see what a gun's previous owner had on it is walking over it to get the "press <button> to take" prompt (and hope that the game you're playing actually tells you what attachments are on it rather than just showing the gun's icon). In Duke Nukem 3D, the sprites do not update to show you what gun a player is holding. However, there is a toggle key which makes an icon appear over their head to show you, making it appear as if Duke is having a very violent Idea Bulb. This was pretty much endemic to Build engine games that came after Duke 3D as well. The original Shadow Warrior, however, at least had separate sprites for when Lo Wang was using his katana. One of the earliest aversions was in Marathon, where player sprites are split at the waist, with the top half changing to account for which weapon that player is currently using, though as above there's still no indication of all the other weapons they have.
