Universal Cosmetics. Love or Hate?

If you are unaware, mobile DBD has multiple cosmetic sets that work on every character, similar to the MYM and Iron Maiden shirts we just got. But they're a lot more in depth and thematic.


How do we feel about them? Personally I think they're a great way to keep every character's wardrobe expanding.


The biggest downside is that if you play a character with limited outfits it's not as great, but it would be fantastic on characters who already have a ton of outfits to have more. The fact that the theme might not match the character actually works out because it gives more outfit potential that's unique.

    I am really bummed that I have to buy am Iron Maiden shirt for every character. I thought it would be one shirt for the girls, one for the boys, and I didn't pay too much attention that they were character bound.

    "Kates Iron Maiden shirt" and "Jeff's Iron Maiden shirt" also made so much sense, because they were the characters that had ties to music or the metal scene. But I am not buying any more shirts, that's a real bummer.

    I would love universal cosmetic that could be used by all characters, right now especially event cosmetics are a roll of HD dice if one of your favourite characters can use if, lucky you if you play Feng, Meg or Nea. This would make playing the more obscure characters more fun without cutting into the others "outfit budget" and creating wasted outfits that no-one will ever use.

    Shared outfits shouldn't be the vast majority, but I think that they would be awesome for the headliner event cosmetic.

    It'd be cool. It's not like I think bhvr 100% will continue making outfits that only match the characters personality or anything. So why not.

    Only downside is otherwise think of is people saying they'd be confused about who they are chasing even though they can just look at the left side of the screen

    I am firmly against mobile cosmetics that can be shared with all characters.

    Mobile cosmetics are outfits created with their own theme to fit as many as possible, rather than being unique cosmetics created specifically to fit one character and no one else like how it is on core.

    As soon as we start doing the former, we'll lose the latter overtime and i do not wish for that to happen as it will kill any uniqueness that exist for Survivors, it goes especially for the uniform type cosmetics on mobile.

    Overall, keep it out of core.
