There are three sets of "before and after" images (the pic here is one of the "after" images) showing examples how female character clothing is being altered for the game. No one is wearing a burqa.
As has been said, this game is being targeted at progressive MENA societies, or portions thereof; the Islamist jihadist factions wouldn't play the regionalized version of Rappelz anymore than Fundamentalist pseudo-Christians would play that "satanic" World of WarCraft ...
But hey, as soon as people start throwing accusations of "liberal" (which I'm not) and "political correctness" (actually, we were talking about diversity and cultural parity) around as insults, it's pretty apparent that the posters came in with an agenda firmly in place, and don't want to be distracted by anything as troublesome as a civil discussion.
