legendary skins shouldn't cost more than full characters
when the idea of legendary skins was first teased i figured they would be fully functional characters, just without any additional perks to keep from flooding the perk pool with mostly useless garbage. that would include name cards, prestige clothes, and different voices / audio, maybe even getting some alternate outfits like other characters if we'd bought their default first.
nope! instead we're expected to pay $15 for a skin with some different idle animations (only for survivors) and nothing else, that's TRIPLE the price of a full character, either killer or survivor, and with far fewer features.
i really love the basic concept but i think it's been executed completely wrong and way overpriced for what we get.

In which case, don't buy it. I agree they're a disappointment, which is why I've bought none of them. Vote with your wallet and only spend money on things you like.

I took a gawk at one earlier and it had the little superfluous 10% off tag for buying the set. lol, wut?
Yeah it's a scam.

I would rather dlc characters stayed lower in price than any skins honestly.
Skins don't change the game play in anyway.

i haven't and won't, at least in their current form.
it sets a really bad precedent imo, like they're charging so much more for less and i'm worried if legendary skins are successful other features will be affected in the future. like i'm happy to support the devs, i buy the rift pass for every rift season 'cause it's honestly a good deal for the amount of content, legendary skins just absolutely aren't.

I fully agree, and its disgusting to see the cash grab tactics they are copying from other games.
Honestly, it makes me question if I want to continue to support them (I have all dlc at present).
I hate the tactic in all games, it makes the world a worse place. Kids bullying other kids cause "they too poor to have expensive skins". Irresponsible "get rich" mentality that a lot of games companies seem to have. But what ya gonna do eh?
I guess we can at least take a positive that they didn't opt to put them in loot crates...
(extremely sarcastic) yay...

Exactly, 10% off what? I can't buy them individually so the ONLY price is that one. That's just false advertising.
Also as is always the case with made up game currencies, I still regard it as overcharging for buying individual pieces rather than a discount for buying the set, as it's equally true just not dressing it up to make them look generous.

Atleast they should have different voice actors and the name should change. The Cybil Bennett skin just looks horrible and doesn’t resemble the character at all and the Oni didn’t even get different animations or weapons. If they would fix all those things then it would be worth it.

absolutely, i don't even know who wanted cybil? i saw a lot of people asking for maria and she would've been welcome.
instead we get an ugly overpriced cop. 💔

it's capitalism in full motion. It's just pathetic that devs value more skins than entire DLCs, that's pretty sad.

Legendary Skins being 15 Bucks is fine, if:
They have unique Voice Actor.
They have a different name displayed.
They have a different secondary weapon (looking at you, Oni)
Then I would be totally fine with Legendary Skins being 15 Bucks. But not only do the current Legendary Skins cost too much, they also limit the uses. Like, you would never be able to have James as a Legendary Skin for Cheryl, because it would still have Cheryls Voice, which would just be dumb.
So I rather hope they give more value to Legendary Skins than making them cheaper, because as said before, it is better when Chapters stay cheap and Skins cost a little bit more.
