Country flag charms - Another way of inclusion needed for the game
As Pride charms were added to this game, and more are likely to come in the near future, I believe it is only fair that we should consider the addition of country flag charms into the game.
If certain people are able to express their sexual orientation/gender identity, I believe it is reasonable that other people should be able to express and showcase their pride for their culture or country.
This can only benefit everyone and another layer of representation and inclusion into Dead by Daylight. Said form of representation has always been done by adding characters from various regions and culture of the world, in a form that was always welcome.
In fact, I do not see why this would not be the case, this has been done in many video games before, and everyone should ask for them.
My girlfriend and I are from Slovakia and would love to have the flag of our country as a charm, and I am sure many people from various countries in the world would love to do the same for their own country!
I hope this will receive some amount of support/recognition so that it can at the very least be taken into account.
Thank you very much all for reading.
Have a nice day.

Sure. Why not? Seems like a good idea to me.

There are 195 countries. If we get a seperate charm category for them I would be fine with those, but without? Sry, I do not need 30 pages of flags in addition to 30 pages of other charms.

These charms could just be redeemable by code just like the Pride and Progress ones. You would not get 30 pages unless you decide to obtain all of them one by one. This would not be an existing issue.

OK if they'd do it like this I would be fine.

apparently not all country flags can be legally used in a game just like that. Also there might be some problems with specific ones (eg Russia and the war going on, China and Taiwan) so it’s probably very much going into political territory which to include and which to exclude.
other than that, I do not personally have anything against it. Though yeah probably need to be behind redeemable codes and the UI needs an overhaul (which it needs in any way at this point)

I think it is false equivalence; country flags are not the same as pride flags. I understand why you might feel that they are and thus should be included. I personally do not think they have a place in the game.

If a country is going through a disaster or something, promoting helping them through their flag would be great, but a nation's flag can mean entirely different things to different people.
What about countries that enforce backwards ideas. Those flags would allow the players to show off their support for those agendas?
I say let's just leave national flags out of the game. Keep DbD as far away from the world politics as it can be.

Perhaps adding them as charms would be too much...
