Cosmetics need to be account wide, and not this weird one time use thing. Everything else can be character wide, but the sets we're currently paying $300+ for should not be one time use.
Cosmetics can be reassigned to other characters on an account. But only ever active on one character at a time. There will also likely be a cool down for reassigning them
I sometimes get in trouble when I hijack our socials 😂
STEVEN!! Thank you for the reply. I'm a huge fan, and I'm so excited for this game. Please keep engaging with the community and don't rush your game out. We support what you're doing here, and I'm very pumped to "gear up" with you guys!
Thank you my friend.
That's fine, but the slightly predatory tactics of "Exclusive once in a life time available cosmetics every single month for 5 years" as u/Extension_Page said is still an issue.
I don’t consider exclusivity predatory, and I am upfront about that. I believe if as a player I am going to spend money on a skin, I want it to be exclusive. But I understand this is a matter of opinion.
Just don't go the GW2 rout and make the best skins a cosmetic purchase, and I'll be happy
The best skins will be in-game achievable (obviously “best” is subjective, so I’d say the most ornate and detailed/unique).
encouraging devs to focus on uping cash shop sales to bring in money rather than improve the game for subs to earn money
Is that really what’s happening, though? How much time and resources do the cosmetics take up?
No this does not happen. The current monthly cosmetics actually are dual purposed in helping to populate the npc population in the game as well with variant models.
It is and has always been a testing ground for us to test specific systems.
I read it as ludicrous cordiality and it still works.
Lol!
I was reading through the announcement and started to get excited for more information about the diplomacy mechanics, or the history of some political entities, or even a lore dump of how the Kaelar became known for diplomacy.
Then I got to the second paragraph.
Yawn.
Definitely some good lore bits in there if you keep your eyes peeled. ;)
We don't want to give away TOOO much, but folks have been piecing things together and we love seeing the theory crafting!
best looking one
Aw, we're glad you like this set!
Will I be able to buy these cosmetics when the game is out?
Nope. These are exclusive to this time frame. (As others have mentioned.)
These will help us create in-game variants of these creatures, NPCs, armors, buildings, etc. So you're also helping us develop the game and in return you get an exclusive variant of the cosmetic!
Lmao that corgi pet. I NEED IT.
Hehe. =P
