Unfriendly reminder about licensed characters and cosmetics' costs

Because I get the feeling very few people understand how there is a direct correlation between having more licensed character in the game and having few not-linked not-cells cosmetics:

In order to be able to put a licensed character into a game, the company needs to acquire a license (duh!), a permission to use the character. This costs money and is often tied to restrictions etc.

(sometimes it can happen a rights-holder gives the license out for free, but rarely)

Money that the company has to pay and license-agreements they have to uphold. And especially companies like Konami (silent hill) are notorious for being POS about their property.

So, the linked cosmetics, the low number of cosmetics as a whole etc? Yeah, you can thank people who demanded to have silent hill etc in the game, the devs are paying for your hubris, literally.


we will hardly see big cosmetics sets or more unlinked stuff, because they do need to make the money back, maybe even still pay things off.
