Reindeer Onesie does not fit the game thematically
During a livestream it was once said that all survivors should look like someone you could meet on the street. This outfit does not look like something someone on the street would wear. The Dwight Elf outfit was also already questionable.
In addition to that, it will look super out of place outside of December.

Doesn't seem any worse than the Dwelf skin tbh.

I think it's cute and I don't see how it doesn't fit - we have Dwelf in the game and Bunny Feng. I really do not see an issue with this.

That ship sailed a long time ago, you should have realized that by now.

And we can't have Power Glove Freddy because it "Breaks immersion".

That's probably more a licensing issue. There's a very real chance that whoever Behavior got permission to use Freddie from... doesn't want him rocking a Power Glove. Also they'd probably need to get permission from Nintendo to put a Power Glove on someone.

Yeah I knew that but I'm still curious as to why Behavior chose to go with the immersion excuse instead of actually just saying that it's a licensing problem. Either way that Onesie does not fit at all.

That skin is not a locked set, the hat and the chest piece work as "general wintery" pieces (the chest more so due to the ears on the head). You could wear these on a random winter day and it wouldn't be as weird as the onesie.
Bunny Feng has only the head as the "weird" part. Wintery hats should liked this exist and it wouldn't be as weird to wear that hood as a onesie in public. This may be a cultural thing but here it would be very weird to wear a onesie in public.
Yes because that's not a survivor. Killers can look weird as hell. For survivors the standard used to be "random person on the street could look like this".

I dont like the outfit imo, I understand it for the Christmas session but dwight and feng had understandable outfits as in you could see them walking down the street with their outfits but the reindeer onesie is just a big no with me. To start they look like pajamas, somthing you would wear on Christmas day or eve, so they look really, REALLY out of place in DBD.

I realized there are actually more exceptions to the "person on the street" thing: The survivor Halloween outfits.
Jake for example has goggles and Blight goo all over him. No one on the street would wear that, but it still fits the theme of the game. These items make sense in the context of survivors changing while in the Entity realm. Or: some kind of alternative reality, which Claudette is being set up for in the of the latest lore entries, and which will presumably be used to explain the upcoming "breakdance" outfit (the one from the design contest).
While you could say that there is some alternate reality where it's always christmas and people wear onesies all the time, that seems way too extreme. An alternate reality where everyone wears the kind of clothes that are used for the Halloween survivor skins sounds more plausible, to me at least.
An alternative view: How would you feel if every survivor, always, was wearing a onesie? Does that seem like it fits thematically? Now do the same experiment with all the other outfits. With the exception of the Dwight elf outfit I think it would work for all of the other cosmetics. Would it look weird if every survivor had a variation of that Nea hoodie outfit (with the spray cans) and every survivor always used that? Not nearly as much as every survivor wearing a onesie.

I mean. If you don't think this one's thematic, you're going to be really upset with the rest of the holiday collection. https://youtu.be/MHwKISf71BA

Élodie’s onesie totally looks like one of those tacky ones people wear around the holidays or in like a Christmas card or something. Probably more at home vibing with a cup of hot chocolate or something than “on the street” per se but I don’t think it’s too far-fetched an outfit for someone to wear.

It looks like a frog.

So now the lore says that the Entity can't take someone on costumed holidays? 😂
