New Plague cosmetics that make it better for people with Emetophobia
Back when she came out I remember a lot of people were complaining about having to fight against a killer who literally uses puke as her ability, and I can sympathize. Vomit isn't exactly ok for everyone to see, same with spiders to dead bodies.
I'm thinking to create a cosmetic(s) that turns her puke into something else - but I have no clue what. There aren't a lot of things that can replace the viscous and movement of something like puke, however just plain old water/saliva could work IF done right, e.g. paired with a skin like this:
If the dev's implemented a skin like this and then changed her vomit to plain old pure water/saliva with any piece of the cosmetic, then that could make it easier for people with a fear of both puke AND skin inflammation, boils, and plague.
Any other ideas are welcome.
See you in the fog <3

Fear of puke... Hmm I mean puke is disgusting I agree. But fear? Well, I guess welcome to 2019 when fears towards anything exists nowadays.
Back topic: idc honestly, but it might end up looking cool so I agree on the suggestion.

She is called the Plague for a reason. The plague is central to her character. This is a horror based game. It can't be tailored for every sensitivity. Same goes for pretty much any other media. There are some things I don't like in this game, but I would not argue for them to be replaced.

It's easy to disregard something when you don't have it yourself. I'm sure there's people in this world that, when they see someone vomiting, feel the need to vomit themselves, or hell, maybe just shake violently. If they made a new skin to counter this then there would be nothing lost - everyone would get a new skin, and the few people it does effect would be massively grateful. Sensitivity is not a factor when it comes to hardcore aspects of the human psyche :P

i get where you're coming from, and i agree with having a more clean version of the Plague would be kinda cool. but at the same time, they said they wouldnt add a clown because of the fear of clowns. and, well, we got a clown now. and same stuff goes for Plague. just kinda got to deal with it. a clean skin would help people who play as the Plague, but if you wanna play survivor theres still gonna be that chance you go against a Plague without the skin. and a high chance i'd say.
still, i would like a skin like that. i dont fear it but the way she looks right now isnt my style.

Dont play a horror game if you get scared of things like vomit. I have a severe fear of spiders but you dont see me banging on Capcoms door for the giant spiders in Resident Evil

Change the puke to liquid cheese. See if that ends up being more or less disgusting.

I'm going to ignore the horror game talk in favour of acid, rainbow vomit, and liquid cheese. This game stopped being horror at 50 hours. LET'S GO FULL ON MEME

There's nearly a phobia for everything, we pretty much don't cater to any of them. We have blood, dead bodies littering the maps, we have an undead ghost lady. We have a Clown, and a Doctor. All of these can be phobias.
It is a HORROR game, people don't come here to be "comfortable" and there's no reason vomit of all things should be avoided.
Since Plague has come out, there have been NO threads from people who can't play because of this, only people saying things should change IN CASE those people exist in the community.
How bout nah?
