I don't care about the crowns too much. I get that the whole point is to have a token to show that you were there at that time, and with the limited rarity taken away, they really are just ugly cosmetics which everyone has. Which kinda sucks, but I feel like that's what charms are for.
What I would like though is consistency on what exclusive stuff gets re-released. There's a yellow rarity Legion set from the fourth tome which hasn't reached the shop yet, and I have no idea if Prime exclusives or legacy prestige borders will ever be making a comeback. It almost feels random what resurfaces lol

I agree that Blight has a lot of strong addons which definitely need to be looked at, but I don't think adjusting his base kit is the way to go. Blight without addons feels strong but still reasonable. Also he does get a bit punished for missing, he enters a cooldown animation and has to wait for his power to fully recharge before using it again.
I think the best thing to do is tone down the effects of some addons, or add downsides to others (like reducing his max rushes or movement speed IF he is using Alch Ring, which is currently very overtuned).

Pretty sure this is their only statement regarding exclusive items and they even stated here:
Since then, we have reworked our storage system and item tracking and made sure that if a similar issue occurs, we should be able to easily restore items.
Which kinda implies they never planned to completely go away from exclusive cosmetics..
the rift cosmetics were announced to not be exclusive right before the first rift released, those were never planned to be fully exclusive cosmetics.
i think this is one of those moments where the community just blames the devs when they never even stated such thing. Not to say they never ‚lied‘ or didn’t hold a promise - that has happened often. But as far as I know, not in this case..
It's difficult to tell, this happened around a time when they did a lot more AMAs and livestreams, so it could have been said there. Regardless, I edited the post, my main point is I'm pretty disappointed that limited-time stuff in the Deep Rift is being added for what feels like purely FOMO reasons. Thanks for the comments!

I don't see why limiting anniversary crowns is an issue. They mark a specific anniversary. What would be the point in buying the 2020 or 2021 crowns at this point? They're more similar to the legacy skins in a way, they mark a specific time in the game and are a way of displaying how long you've been playing.
Honestly, I agree. I wasn't really upset about the crowns which is why I didn't say anything then. They looked pretty silly after all. But with that being said I'd have preferred if limited items were restricted to being charms, especially now that crowns are being replaced with actual interesting cosmetics for select characters. The Deep Rift is my main concern, it feels like it was made purely to capitalise on FOMO.

Pretty sure they stated they made those cosmetics free for everyone was bc many people actually lost access and they couldn’t retrack who legitimately lost them and who just lied and wanted the cosmetics. They have since improved their system to be able to track stuff. Another reason was that specific code-cosmetics like golden Feng recolor was sold for abhorrent prices.
they never stated directly they were done with exclusive cosmetics, or have they? If so i would love to see the source!
I'm mostly going off of memory, I'm pretty sure BHVR stated somewhere years ago that they wanted to move away from limited cosmetics. This was reflected by bringing regular Rift cosmetics to the store after a while, which was unusual for a battle pass. I know it's a "trust me bro" moment, so I could be wrong but I've seen a bunch of people under the same impression.
Here is the article saying they found a way to "isolate the players that have played the event":

And here they went back on that, saying they no longer had a way to verify if they were earned legitimately. All players received the event cosmetics but not the legacy ones because they were more special:

Fast Track. Hitting a great skill check and seeing the gen progress jump up is always satisfying, especially in close games where the extra progress comes in clutch.

ur lying. ur using it to tell if its worth letting them bleed out. Thats what most killers do. And i agree that they should show survivors hookstage.
I can't speak for other killers but nah, I know firsthand how much it sucks being left on the ground forever lol
A while back there was also the PTB where all survivors could pick themselves up and if everyone's down, the game ends. Wondering if that's still being added

My only issue with this is when survivors intentionally go down in spots where you can't get them to a hook. In those situations they force you to slug them and I'd hate to see that become stronger with less information. Otherwise though I wouldn't mind this.
That said I sometimes use the deathbar as a gauge for whether I feel ok slugging, if someone's already been on the ground for a minute I'll feel bad and hook em.
