We Need More Skins

MikaelaWantsYourBoon

For Kate, Mikaela, Yui, Yun Jin, Zarina etc.

Last collection was so boring. Haddie, Knight, Renato etc... Boring characters. I am hoping upcoming collections are just better.

”Cool and attractive” is literally subjective though.

How isn’t Haddie a cool character in comparison to others? And attractiveness is subjective (Haddie is the best looking survivor imo)

My point is that when the only reason to pick your survivor main is subjective reasons then bhvr should account for that and make diverse survivors which they do. There’s no point in having different survivors at all if we just get Kate o and David on repeat

Do you think most people who play DBD share the same opinion about Haddie as you do? If they did, I'm pretty sure you'd see her played a lot more often. Those "subjective" aspects of the most played survivors in this game are arguably the very reason why people play them to begin with. You can't argue from a bias perspective that most people don't share and try to make a case for diversity beyond what consumers are more willing to respond to positively. If they're trying to make money from this game why should they focus on subjective attributes that are only marketable to a few instead of the majority?

I don't care about any of these characters, I want a Nick skin for Ace or Felix.

And give Laurie some cosmetics too, she has literally 1 thing. Even Myers has more than her, and this man is not into fashion.

(Keep Laurie cute tho, no half naked clothing cause that's just how every other women dress up anyway.)

We need more sexy Felix, his open pyjama was just the beginning, we crave for more, his new wasteland outfit is meh, even if he shows skin

The thing is companies know not every "product" they produce is not going to be equal in sales. It's not like they go "Oh, well this isn't selling as well as our top seller, might as well scrap it". If they still see sales through that product they might keep it around to appeal to that different market that seems to like said product.

Just because you don't see Haddie a lot doesn't mean they still don't do well with her sales (and her skins). Not to mention, who knows maybe in your region Haddie isn't as popular but in other regions of the world she sells well. Just because you personally don't see her a lot doesn't mean she still doesn't make money for bHVR. Unless we see sales data all discussion on how well she sells is purely anecdotal.

You also seem to be saying people want "sexy" characters. While this is true for some of the player base. There are still a lot of people who pick a character because the seem themselves in that particular character.

He was talking about 100% of the Kate playerbase, but that's only 32% of the DBD playerbase.

Oh I know. Its just when I see people complain about who gets cosmetics more often I simply bring up points I think are relevant as to why I think some characters get them more often than others. It just makes sense to focus resources towards what is more marketable. Trying new things and seeing what works can be fun but after awhile you gotta come back to reality and focus on the things you have done that worked out better. This is why I said its a good idea to use the most popular survivors as blueprints for future ones. They can give you ideas and they certainly don't have to be copies of those popular survivors. Take the ideas around your most popular survivors and expand on that for the next one.

This made me laugh! 😂 I really am curios how much of the DBD playerbase plays and mains Kate. I see her all the time so that number may not be too far off.
