    You'd have to look harder for more pointless cosmetics in games.

    I wouldn't say they're the best things 5ever or anything, but they're cute. What's the harm?

    Some of them look neat but that's it.

    My guess is they were only made so they fill gaps between cosmetics in the rift.

    its cool for killer hooks kinda..but overall they are tacky. But tacky isn't always bad.

    I just don't really feel like they belong.

    I don't hate Charms, but I don't feel like they look good on Killer hooks or are visible enough on Survivors to really justify their existence as cosmetics. But that's just my IMO.

    They're pointless, tacky and don't fit the game at all. Charms just feel like one of those ideas that shouldn't have left the drawing board.

    Can the devs add a toggle option to remove charms from visibility?

    Cute, but not for me.

    Particularly not a fan that they hang on Hooks for Killers, meaning i'll only see them when i hook Survivors, and only for a second or 5.

    They ate okay, don't get me wrong. I wish they went more along with the theme, for example maybe make them look like offerings instead? And I wish they were more noticeable on survivors.

    They're not like amazing. They're cute. They don't fit the feel of a horror game, but since I'd hardly call DbD a horror game, anyway, the charms are fine.

    The only problem is that you can only use three at a time. Survivors have all that room around their waist to have a charm-bracelet-like belt with a dozen charms dangling from it. Hooks, too, could easily be covered top to bottom in charms. Might as well let players decorate their stuff like a grandma drowning her shelves in knickknacks.

    If only you had to actually EARN them would they be cool, but you can just buy your way through the rift like a dumbass (and yes, people have already done that for some reason) and get all the charms through BS ways. The only charms that are cool are the ones from the tones because those are the ONLY ones you can’t throw money at to get.

    In my opinion they should do more than Just look good (not like you See them on survivors anyway unless you look close) like give 1% bonus in something (bonus to certain perks, speed of certain action but never running speed) like claudette one could give 1% faster healing and trapper 1% faster placing traps. Not much but at least they wouldn't be worthless

    They said they won't have them affect gameplay like that because then it'd be pay-to-win. A small bonus to BP earning seems reasonable to me, though. I'd like that.

    They’re nothing too special. I suppose it’s a nice addition for a little extra customisation. Other than that, they don’t really feel like they belong in this game.

    I don't dislike them I just think they are just too small to even be considered 'desirable'.

    If they had another purpose and Survivor charms were a little bigger then fine.

    I hope in time we will get charms that aren't just faces and perk icons. This can get very creative if they allow themselves and we all know that the design is amazing at making up some sick cosmetics, Hallowed Blight is an obvious indicator of that so I'm sure future charms will reflect their talent later.

    Ok but they don't fit the feel of the game

    If I could have selected both the "pointless" and "don't fit the feel of the game" I would have.

    As it stands however, I feel more strongly about the fact that they don't fit the feel of the game at all than I do about their pointlessness. There's absolutely no reason that survivors should be wearing these and even less reason for killers to have these hanging on hooks since they're the ones who are supposed to be mindlessly bloodthirsty.

    People say they're "mementos" but I feel that's a really loose line of thought, some of them just don't make any sense. Why would Ash Williams have a memento of Claudette? Are they friends? Lovers?? Why would David want a memento of the Pustula flowers? Why would Bill Overbeck have a little square with a plant on it symbolizing herbology?? You really think that guy cares about P L A N T S?

    I say pointless tat, but only from a killers POV, shouldn't we have severed heads, limbs on their hook to make it more gross and horror like? thy may as well as hang their smalls and their washing on there.

    If anything, they should of only included gruesome horror charms for the killers' hooks which fit the overall feeling eg medical objects for Doctor, dead animals for Hillbilly etc. But no. Here comes a Pop Vinyl to scare our opponents in to submission.

    I like them on the hooks, but I they are nothing special for survivors, in my opinion.

    As a Quentin main i embrace them, bc its the only thing that can change his outfit.

    But I don't use them on female survivors, I just think it doesn't match with the outfits and stuff.

    The hook Charms so far are underwhelming but I see potential. I wish Charms did something more though.

    They do nothing.

    They hang from the survivors' belt or the killers' hook.

    I think it would be more appropriate to have rusty hanging traps for Trapper, dead animals for Hillbilly, broken masks for Legion, Blair Witch style hanging decorations for Hag etc...you know things that would look in place with the killers and their environments.

    Not ruddy toys and keyrings.

    This is meant to be a sinister horror game not the setting for some neckbeard's Youtube toy review video.
