Flats aren’t cute

Yeah I'm no fashion expert or anything close but that new Yui outfit doesn't look right. I mean shes wearing tennis shoes with the whole "Greek Goddess" thing. It actually looks so bad and kills the entire outfit for me, which is funny because I usually don't care about these things.

If there were heels in DBD, the animations would also have to change .. If we add that, I don't doubt that there were more bugs so I'm happy that they didn't exist.

....nothing is "realistic". You can unhook yourself from being skewered through the heart and RUN away.

Heels are the LEAST of the realism worries.

I use to be able to run in high heels pretty well, actually. Now I'd probably break my neck, but it is certainly do-able.

No, I can read. Dead by daylight realism is okay with heart skewers and teleporting hags, falling for 15 feet without broken ankles, but god forbid you have 3 inches extra on?

Reading isnt the only issue here. Comprehension is. And you cant comprehend that in "dEaD bY dAyLiGhTs ReAlIsM" heels are the lowest issue.

What you mean is "everything else is already implimented, so it must work, but heels wont because ReAlISm".

Come to think of it, the most likely reason is the character models. If you've ever played around with avatar sites, the avatar itself is static in height. So when you put on heels, they usually sink into the ground without resizers to make the overall avatar or at least parts of it smaller. The latter usually disproportions the character. They'd have to raise character models up higher and then animation problems would also come into play.

God, I hate when people call characters in games as "avatars" or "toons", dunno why but it makes me cringe so hard :P

In terms of why there are no heels, models would need to be slightly adjusted to accommodate for height shift of the heel, it would look kind of off if they decided to keep it the same way.

The only solution are just very small heels, that still distorts the proportions but aren't as obvious.

Or

Just make boots that were originally heels but make said heels broken/torn off. Would be easier but uglier solution.

Also, ######### sandals, the most disgusting footwear. Yuck!

Yeah, I was having discussion yesterday here about how the term "cringe" makes me cringe, because it's so overly used. Irony.

Avatar sites rarely use the term character, when the actual company refers to them, and in turn the millions of people who have used them usually do as well. It's mostly because of customization, rather than any set character, which would mean a distinctive look and/or pre-written back story. I'm sure a better ratio of folks have more experience with that than SFX and game programming when it comes to digital models and how they work. I'm just arguing semantics now, lol.

You basically mimicked what I said though.

God, can you imagine the horror of BHVR actually putting honest-to-god effort into something?

honestly its probably a little bit because of the ######### that the Jurassic park movie got when they had that lady outrun the Trex in heels. some people thought it was empowering some people thought it was sexist

I agree, it's pretty much random or extremely subjective now what "fits" and what doesn't. I personally don't think the greek legends collection "fits" that perfectly either but thats another story.
