Raider's Helmet | Forums

[Awww Hell No]

I was really hyped up for the game prior to E3 and when I saw the trailer I felt like there was one aspect I already hated and still do after playing on the Alpha.
Please remove the horns off of the helmet, there's no evidence at all historically that the Viking's ever had horns on their helmet.

The whole art style is incredibly fantasy-like anyhow. The vikings being the worst offenders (who the hell in history would dress like that??). That said, you can remove the horns.

Just get another helm if you don't like the horns. Yes, I know they're not accurate. They can technically make the game any way they choose. Some people like it even if it's not "period."

you do know this takes place 1000 years after the respective era of these factions? So them having something that in our history they didn't have makes perfect logical sense.

I get where you're coming from but like others have pointed out, you can choose a helmet without horns.

It's hard to argue for realism in this game just enjoy it for the gameplay.

Eh, all the classes have very fantasy-esque and aggressive looking armors, anyway.

From what I have seen, there are some helmet options that does not have horns for Raider. This is, after all, a historically inspired fantasy, not a historically accurate title, and playing on what popular culture consider "cool" in portrayed warriors a bit is OK, perhaps even necessary to a degree for a big production like this game.

I hope there are horn-less options for all Viking characters, as I'll personally use non-horned ones myself. But it's ok for other folks to have their "horned badass", however historically inaccurate .
