New Rift [Reverence] is embarrassing

I'm pretty happy with the length tbh. It makes it a lot easier to grind out since they'll be more events which means less of a need for dailies. This last one was awful as a more casual player. I had to do dailies almost everyday in order to finish it. No idea why milestones are gone though; assuming it's a bug.

I like some of the skins but wish there was more of them. The recolors and the bare bones free side leaves quite a bit to be desired.

Pretty meh rift overall though. I think my favorite thing is the cat badge.

They've the chance to make better cosmetics and more recolours after Krasue justified complains being OP but they blew the chance to make players grind for the cosmetics like they did it on purpose.

Such a disappointed Rift.

They haven't put an item in the premium track of the rift that made me think "Wow, I can't wait to get that" (in a non-sarcastic way) since the rift with the Bill outfit, and all I wanted from that was his hat. If I didn't get my currency back every time I'd have no reason to buy any of them since then. I made one purchase whatever year that was and been getting them for "free" since then. They rarely include characters I play, and when they do, it's unappealing stuff I would never use. Next survey they do should include questions about the rift and cosmetics in general.

lol all my money goes to Overwatch now. Both my kids play for fun and epsorts so they NEED the battle pass and someone’s skin. I have the Auric Cells saved up but I haven’t purchased the rift from three ones ago. There really isn’t anything worthwhile and it’s really bad. If you care about cosmetics then yeah but other than that they are pretty dull.

I agree completely. I think it can be fun at times, but it's almost like a bunch of cosplays like you said. It's getting to the point where I'll spend 10 bucks on maybe 2 outfits and only 1 piece from each is worthwhile. That's a really crappy deal.

For instance, Felix's suits from the last Rift caught my eye. I hated the heads, but the bodies were nice. The problem is that only one of them were really great to me and of course it was the last one. That is so much time, effort, and ultimately money for two pieces of one set. I'd rather just play with what I already have.

The only thing i liked in the last rift was thalitas booty pants lol. Not even 1 thing to look forword to in this one, and the one before dominus.. i almost didnt buy it for once.

Definitely. If something is silver and gold and it clashes, it's whatever. But a pair of pants with 5 colors is not going to match very much at all. A gigantic black and bright blue mullet is going right into the junk pile.

I think back to the older collections and while they weren't perfect either, they at least gave me lots of room for play. I still get so much mileage out of the Mean Streets collection to this day.

It's a tragedy. I liked Thalita's skirt and boots combo from the metal rift in addition to David's tops. But other than that, it was a big waste of money.

Absolutely. Not to get all fashion critic, but it feels borderline sinful some of the stuff we get. I'm not going to match a pattern with a pattern. 😭 Sometimes we need denim and solid colors to balance some of the crazier stuff. Why can't we have a cute brown leather bomber jacket or a black button up? A great example of that is that citrus shirt for Dwight years ago. It's loud, but that's fine because it's still practical and can mesh with lots of things. I'm constantly finding myself stuck where I think one piece would be fantastic with the right top or bottom, but it doesn't exist. Instead we're getting more and more stuff that can't be mixed or matched.

Honestly took the words out of my mouth. Me and my duo joke often that we spend more time dressing up our characters than actually playing 🤣

It's definitely getting harder to cook up good outfits though. There's not enough "neutrals". All of their original Survivors should have a store option for a plain shirt and pair of jeans in a couple of standard colours (like black or navy or something) IMO. They already have the meshes because the Twitch/Iron Maiden shirts exist. They'd just need to recolour them.

When I saw the Axekick shirts that came with the latest Chapter I was so excited thinking I could have a plain(ish) black t-shirt to mix and match with on all the Survivors but it turns out they only added it for like four Survivors 😭

A great example of that is that citrus shirt for Dwight years ago. It's loud, but that's fine because it's still practical and can mesh with lots of things

True. A lot of the older cosmetics in this game are great for combo-ing. I wish we'd see more in that style: fun but relatively simple.

No kidding. I opened the game to see the new Rift, decided I only liked Ace's blonde head (which is saying A LOT because Vittorio is obviously one of my mains), and played dress up for like 30 minutes. Figured I'd play one trial while it was open, experienced yet another steamroll, and closed the game again. 😵

We really do need them. If every piece is competing to be the most special and amazing, we just end up with something that looks like a trash heap. Maximalist clutter is a thing to be fair, but none of it is quite that either.

I wanna say I see the vision. Couture Spanish cathedral, or something along those lines. But unless you plan on wearing each outfit as an entire set, what do you do with it? Never mind the fact that the colors are very bright and/or saturated and highly visible. It's like they're designing cosmetics for a different game.

Yeah, you can't mix and match these skins with like anything, lol. I love to create good looking outfits, but these recent rift cosmetics can't be combined with anything! They all look so over the top and needlessly gaudy to me.

At least he released with his head cosmetic 😂

(looks at Claudette)

You can see what it looks like in the trailer, and personally speaking I think it might be for the best that it was left out 😅

It's certainly one of the sentences of all time 🤣
