History PlayingWith / InformedEquipment

* '''Exaggerated''': Not only are Hiro and his friends always shown wearing the same things, but this extends to combat -- Hiro's always shown [[HeroesPreferSwords swinging a sword]], Marcy [[WhipItGood wielding a whip]], and Mana brandishing a staff, even if the menu claims they have completely different weapons equipped.

* '''Downplayed''': No mater what Hiro and his friends have equipped, they will always have the same clothes on, although their weapons and accessories will change.

** Everybody explicitly wears armor underneath their other clothes which would plausibly hide it or would look identical to their existing outfit. Hiro wears breastplates beneath his tabbard, Mana and Marcy uses different grades of cloth.

** Or, for an Exaggerated take on it: By striping the party of their clothes and armor, the player can make them go save the world wearing nothing but their underwear.

* '''Conversed''': "It's be nice if the equipment actually changed on the character model. I keep forgetting what I had equipped."

* '''Straight''': No matter what [[TheHero Hiro]] and his friends have equipped, their appearances never change -- Hiro is always wearing the simple clothes he started with, [[BlackMagicianGirl Marcy]] is always wearing the same CuteWitch getup, [[MysteriousWaif Mana]] always wears her [[WomanInWhite flowing white robes]], and so on.

* '''Justified''': Rather than actual individual pieces of equipment, the party is wearing suits that can modify themselves based on plug-ins.

* '''Lampshaded''': Hiro complains about how incredibly heavy his {{BFS}} and BlingOfWar are. He looks exactly the same as he always has, seemingly unarmed. Marcy looks him over, then gives the player an AsideGlance.

* '''Discussed''': " "I'm wielding a chaingun, but it looks like a wooden sword. Somehow."

* '''Discussed''': ???
* '''Conversed''': ???

* '''Played For Laughs''': Not only can the ''player'' not see what Hiro and the others have equipped, neither can anybody else -- including the other party members, who can never remember who has what.

* '''Inverted''': the party members change their own bodies, without ever changing their equipment.
* '''Subverted''': Due to their class type, everyone can only equip clothes and weapons that resemble their basic model. Possible use of [[PaletteSwap Palette Swap]] to differentiate between different tiers of "shirt".
* '''Double Subverted''': Except for some unique armors which actually do change the in-game sprites.
* '''Parodied''': Hiro starts carrying around a [[{{BFG}} gatling rocket launcher]], but everyone keeps acting like it's the same wooden sword he had at the beginning of the game. [[OnlySaneMan Marcy]] doesn't understand it.

* '''Played For Laughs''': Not only can the ''player'' not see what Albert and the others have equipped, neither can anybody else -- including the other party members, who can never remember who has what.

* '''Averted''': Every piece of equipment causes a distinct change in the sprite or model of the character wielding or wearing it.
