Even if he did go the license would probably come crawling back after the inevitable disaster of the chainsaw massacre game

I doubt it will be a disaster. Friday the 13th was the most fun I've had playing a video game since Left 4 Dead 2. Gun knows what they're doing and really have a passion for the projects they create.

The 3 killer aspect also makes for really unique and interesting gameplay and I'm excited to see how it will play out.

On the list of priorities for DBD, I don't think skins and moris are at the top.

Oh they absolutely are if they'll make them more money.

That is true only because consumers ALLOW companies that don't care about them to make money.
If we were to stop supporting those companies, I'd say they'd magically change their mind.

But the thing is there's never going to be enough people willing to do that to make a difference, ever.

Most of the people playing these games don't even follow them on social media to see there's an outcry in the first place.

Becoming F2P doesn't excuse greedy practices.

It's baffling to me that people still think companies care more about their consumers then they do about making money.

It will always be about money, companies want to make as much money as possible, BHVR is looking at what other games are doing to make money, and they follow suit because they want to make more money.

Don't expect companies to care about their consumers more then they do about generating more income. If FOMO is going to bring in more money for them, then they absolutely will continue to do it.

In which case, why are the previous seasonal cosmetics not time limited? Why suddenly shift direction towards a substantially less consumer friendly model?
(and mark my words, there will be more proper non-seasonals)

Honestly I wonder if they're doing this shift because they plan to make the game free to play sometime soon. I would 100% not be surprised if that happened.

It is odd how Swamp and Red Forest still aren't updated.

I wish they would at least focus on updating those maps first over new content. Oh and update Claudette's portrait picture BHVR! She's the only older Survivor that still doesn't have a new one.

We’re excited to announce that Behaviour Interactive is now working in cooperation with renowned Chinese game development company, NetEase Games.
We’ve given our consent to NetEase to incorporate gameplay elements of Dead by Deadlight in their new asymmetrical mobile game, Identity V.
Our director Mathieu Coté and product manager Alex Lin have been invited by NetEase to serve as consultants on Identity V, providing input and offering advice to help make the game a global success.
We’re so glad to see the continued support and love shown to Dead by Daylight as well as the growing demand for asymmetrical multiplayer games. We hope you’ll enjoy Identity V and we thank all of you for playing the games we are so passionate about.
coudlnt find the original post by BHVR but this is a quote from Reddit (that also included an now invalid link to an official DbD news post from their website)
so at least they didn’t just give permission but helped in form of consulting.

I'm not sure if that's enough merit to allow these cosmetics into the main game. But surely they wouldn't say no?

At the same time Netease wants players to flock to their version specifically because of these exclusive cosmetics, so who knows, that reason alone might make them decline.
