What Happened To Cosmetic Killer Powers?
This most recent Rift is so bad compared to the previous ones we've gotten, with even more boring charm reskins, not including the Claudette cosmetic that was supposed to be released 2 Rifts ago, and best yet, default Billy pants. So I ask, what ever happened to the cosmetic killer powers that were mentioned and teased in the survey?
This is no brainer, rather than more low-quality charms, and poorly done legendary skins (see Zarina and Cheryl), why not cosmetics for killer powers, as they'd look pretty cool and I'm sure many killer players would buy into it.

The rift is just hot garbage but some people buy it I guess. I mean, they're still releasing new rifts even if all we do is complain about it

a big thing no one realizes, the original rifts had 100 auric cell slots near the end. Now there are only 50s. Seeing as the total auric cells haven't changed, that means that there is just less in each rift. Like just literally fewer rewards, and they are padding it out by spreading the auric cell dumps

I think the issue is the fact they're short handed courtesy of Covid, another thing being that not every killer can have their power visually changed like Myers and Ghostface mainly cause they physically do nothing but stare. You can't change trappers traps because it's an immediate disadvantage.
The last thing being the amount of work that would need to go into making ability cosmetics for every character in the game, some not even able to get ability cosmetics.
I do get that some killers would look really cool with their non-changable weapons actually having some cool designs like nurses blink, Billy's chainsaw or Plagues puke being rainbows. I don't know but at the same time I'd prefer they work on more important things and you have to admit they would just recolor a handful of them instead of create cool affects with no guarantee your favorite killer will get anything.

Don't think COVID is a valid reason when they just released 4 survivor skins, a Stranger Things pack a few months ago, and a few linked and legendary skins.
Not every killer needs to have a power cosmetic, but for killers like Ghost Face, his Night Shroud vignette could be slightly altered. As for Trapper, just a change of the shaped of the trap would be fine, and they can make slight color changes. It doesn't need to be neon green, but if they want to use it there's nothing wrong with that. It's also not like BHVR makes cosmetics for every character in the game each time a new cosmetic is released. I also don't see what else the cosmetic and character design team has to work on that's more important. Charms?
