Once more about linked sets, rating them all by whether or not linking them makes sense
Now, having sets that use new meshes and/or are licensed makes some sense. For everything else:
Survivors:
Dwight: No linked sets
Meg: No linked sets
Claudette: No linked sets.
Jake: No linked sets.
Nea: Graff-Crafter: Linking makes no sense as similar hoodies (feng and deathslinger for example) are not linked. Does not look out of place, can also be fixed with a mesh switch when the head or torso cosmetic would be used with a different one. (e.g. have the hood down when a different head is used/have the hood tied together when a different torso is used.
Ace: No linked sets
Feng: No linked sets
David: No linked sets
Kate: Lady Volksfest: 50:50, linking the dress (torso and legs) makes some sense, but head could and should be separate. Nothing on the head interferes greatly with other cosmetics, and her default shirt clipping through near all leg cosmetics makes that argument fall flat to begin with.
Adam: No linked sets.
Jeff: No linked sets
Jane: The goddess muse: 50:50 again, same reason as kate, minus her default stuff clipping through things.
Zarina: Penguin Onesie: Linking makes sense, as the mesh used would mess with other meshes. However, possible 'hood down' option applies (see Nea), linking torso and legs, but not head.
Felix: No linked sets
Elodie: Reindeer Onesie: Same deal as with Zarina's onesie.
Yun-Jin: Seoul Socialite: 50:50. This is a semi-licensed outfit, but otherwise there's no reason NOT to get a thumbs up from the originators to split head and torso/legs like with kate or jane above
Killers:
General: It makes no sense to have the weapons be linked to the sets.
Trapper: Krampus: New mesh, linking makes sense for torso and head, but not weapon.
Wraith: no linked sets
Billy: no linked sets
Nurse: No linked sets
Hag: No linked sets, not even the licensed CryptTV one.
Doctor: Look-See: Licensed, semi new mesh. no sense in linking weapon.
Huntress: The Mordeo (see above)
Clown: Lord of the Underworld: No sense in being a linked set. Additional meshes, but otherwise plain body and head mesh.
Spirit: No linked sets
Legion: Licensed SH sets, makes no
Plague: No linked sets
Oni: The Minotaur. See Krampus above.
Deathslinger: No linked sets
Blight: No linked sets
Twins: Blood&Guts: Absolutely no sense in linking this. The hair does not interfere with other meshes (in fact Eternal Anguish and Eternal Sorrow have similar length meshes for the veil) neither is the look outstandingly iconic.
Trickster: No linked cosmetics.
So, yeah, out of 12 linked sets for the original characters not one makes sense to be completely linked.
With the licensed characters it's sort of understandable.
