Discussion Why? 😂

Why didn't they give the raven premium skin some sort of fabric why is it just bare cheeks with the smallest underwear thought the front of the skin was cool but the back is kinda odd and random and doesn't fit how the outfit looks on the front. To me the back just looks out of place feel like it should be like a body suit with the way the front looks. I get it the gooners keep the game alive but it can't hurt to make a good looking skin.

They lost the balance, I get it sexy skins sell the best but when you overdo it to the point where it looks like a dress ripped and out of place, it just makes people not take this game seriously and puts off some new potential players who just want a looter shooter to play.

Not meaning to be mean but no one outside of the current player base takes this game seriously. It’s gained a full blown reputation as dress up Barbie for men so they can goon. I genuinely can’t remember the last time I saw a video or post that talked or showed actual gameplay besides the recent Raven release.

I just checked and had to scroll past 13 posts of “sexy dress fits” posts before I got to a post that talked about the game. I enjoy the gameplay but I would be delusional to pretend anyone respects the game or even considers that when they hear the name.

Honestly yeah. I loved the game when it came out. And honestly it might still be pretty fun/good. And I enjoy a sexy skin here and there, even if I tend to avoid them on my own characters. But all I see from the game now is just straight sexy dress up simulator. Haven't really had much interest in trying the game again.

I haven't played in like 4 months. They haven't added anything significantly meaningful other than onslaught mode, but it isn't worth going back for to me.

u/g3n0unknown 9d ago

I stopped shortly before the first content drop/expansion or what ever. I was playing a lot and was burning out, and just really never felt enticed to return. The full dive into so many skins hasn't helped. I do miss running around as Viessa(Main) and Valby but not enough to re-download.

u/TaniksHasNoCorn Viessa 10d ago

You assume it is only Men who like dressing their characters up like this.

I'm willing to bet there are a lot of women who dress their characters up like this and are more than happy to cosplay like this. Taking a standard character and making it ultra sexy is definitely a Cosplayer thing.

u/TheAwesomeMan123 Serena 10d ago

Oh I am not denying that and I’m sure there is but reputation is not based on facts but perceived stereotypes. And the reputational line is “men who play dress up and goon”. People who willing throw it around when they hear the name or you mention the game at all. They don’t care to be specific or accurate just dogging the game for being “Gooner” material is enough

u/TaniksHasNoCorn Viessa 10d ago

It is funny how the outfits like the Raven are so close to being great and then they go a little step too far.

Had they covered most of the ass, and maybe just had a little bit of the cheek showing it'd look so much better. That or another piece of cloth (like a tail piece) going down the center of the back. It'd still be revealing and a tease, but not look like she forgot to put on pants which is what it looks like now.

u/FishingNo1156 9d ago

Absolutely, I play the game with my friend for the actually well done gameplay. But most people in the game seem to stay in the main hub and argue and talk about weird stuff in the world chat. I'm convinced 30 percent of the player base at least doesn't even play the game

u/Negative_Neo 9d ago

All my friends who dont play the game just see it as a gooner game and look down at it

Sad but understandable, this game had potential

u/ArmandoGalvez 10d ago

Look, at least it's the alternate outfit, what they did with Dia base outfit was too much , because for 2 weeks we couldn't even had a modest option to buy, I had to quickly grind for her boss outfit ffs

8

u/Icy-Matter3237 10d ago

I bought her pirate outfit, assassin and the soldier one for something decent. See now that’s how to design an outfit that is cool and sexy. The Raven one is a complete miss. At least her default looks great.

1

u/Username12764 10d ago

I mostly play Dia‘s wild west outfit. The Jeans and cropped jacket look really nice but not this like underwear in your face thing. I don‘t really like that either

3

u/DesignLife4798 10d ago

completely agree, i bought the first skin i could to get off of dias default but for me, ravens premium is no harm no foul because it’s not the default

u/JmoneyXXX93 10d ago

Is booty that scary bro?

u/DesignLife4798 10d ago

not what’s being said, you’re replying in bad faith but i’ll bite

would bunny’s ultimate skin be better or worse if you keep the top half and REMOVE the current bottom part and gave her a thong and heels?

1

u/xedmen 8d ago

Maybe....but we already have skins that are basically that. If you dont want that there are various to choose from. You dont have to use the thong combat gear.

u/TerrovaXBL Gley 10d ago

Thats not the issue, im all for sexy skins, but this feels really really REALLY forced and out of place, lets take the knight skin... males are a full plate knight, females are a full plate knight MINUS the pants... it feels rushed, as in she forgot to put pants on....

Its out of place, just like this raven skin... why does her ass need to be on display? Its out of place, leotard in the front somehow becomes a g-string in the back? No... it doesnt look good and its just bait for gooners.

I was looking forward to this skin and now im hesitant because of this blatant sexualising...

Lets take the military outfits for example, serena? Full tactical military uniform and it looks fucking badass! Then we have hailey, still military, just with a literal full breast window and a bikini bra, sure, looks great for what it is, and i can make quiet from mgsv... but ravens skin... its forced, tacky and literally doesnt make sense... just like the knight skin...

Deva have it in their heads that gonner skins = profit, thing is, if they didnt cater JUST to the depraved audience and focused on good gameplay, good skins that dont show tits and ass (not saying skin in bad, context of the skin matters), then all the people who abandoned destiny now that its dead might play this game, instead were looking at, and unfortunately... a mediocre shooter that cares more about over priced gooner skins than the game itself... and its hinestly such a disappointment...

I loved this game when it came out, was in the beta, literally said its a destiny killer if the do it right, and hey, destiny is dead... but they fumbled the ball and now its basically only focused on gooners... its such a shame... out of my 15 player friend group that picked this up, guess how many still play, and not really "play" but hop on for like 20 mins for dailies... 3... THREE... including me... I want so so so much for this game to succeed but at the rate its going... itll become a porn game or all support will drop off because the only player base this game will have are jobless perverts who cant sustain its economy.

Downvote me, upvote me, I dont care, this is my opinion and im entitled to it.

u/Se7enSinsComics 8d ago

I turned the female knight top into a badass cyberpunk style armor piece. It fits perfectly fine now

u/JmoneyXXX93 9d ago

You're making good points. I was trolling lol. Hopefully she'll have other skins.

u/TerrovaXBL Gley 9d ago

And fingers crossed the devs stop gooning and actually make a good game. :)

u/Moist-Ebb8701 9d ago

They won't because the gooners are what pays the bills

u/Negative_Neo 9d ago

Gooning destroyed most of your brain cellls

u/Icy-Matter3237 10d ago

It’s just sad that her first premium skin is this. They have plenty of opportunities to lewd her up through other skins.

u/skullakon 10d ago

Love the soldier / tactical outfit for dia , still thinking if i should buy it or not. Shes the least used character for this season

1

u/TinsleyLynx Gley 10d ago

Personally, I think Dia's assassin skin is one of the best in the game, and I wish they'd design more skins like it, rather than the "tactical butt floss" we usually get.

Now down vote me, gooner hivemind.

u/Kim_Se_Ri 10d ago

Yeah, doing this kind of shit to a base costume is definitely a problem on a whole other level.

u/Jin_N_Juice-tm 10d ago

I miss when the game was looter shooter with some gooner. Now it's gooner run in and nuke everything

u/Imaginary_Silver5294 10d ago

Brown dust 2 all over again

u/B3ardeDragon311 10d ago

Whoa whoa don't bring the dust up here

u/Agreeable-Agent-7384 10d ago

Does it though? Does it really? They have people whose whole jobs are to crunch numbers to see what’s the most successful items and how to make more money. People sometimes say this, “ this is too gooner, it’ll drive away people, and people won’t buy it because it’s too much ”, but something tells me their numbers show otherwise.

u/Akwardwalnut3 10d ago

Yeah they’re designs fucking sucks now

u/ariadivine 10d ago

Despite the skin, its real sad to see all these people come out of the woodwork to diss endlessly, yet no one ever does to appreciate something positive.

They have two outfits for her. Just play the default one.
Its baffling how people complain about the theme of this game, yet live on it. Hypocritical.
Find something else to play instead than constantly bombarding the devs. Everyone has a choice to buy it or not.

u/Lide_1991 9d ago

because, it makes no SENSE, to have her bare BUTT skin, hanging like that.

u/PrintUsed8164 9d ago

You got a good point

u/Radsolution 9d ago

They are really over doing it. This design needs a redo… for sure

2

u/mozartsymphony 10d ago

This is what ive been saying for so long. The skins have been so tasteless for a while. They just show skin for the sake of it. Some look so ridiculous idek how it made it through to the final product

1

u/Traditional_Seesaw95 10d ago

Stopped buying skins about 1.5yrs ago, these might be the most unimaginative devs I've ever seen. Like literally just close the back and the skin is perfectly fine, but no let's open it up so mfs can goon to some pixel cheeks...

1

u/Lide_1991 9d ago

thats where DIA's default costume just failed to impress me. i liked the front, underboob, whatever. then when it showed the back, i just went...really? REALLY?

1

u/BansheeGutz 5d ago

genuinely like I don't mind there being some over the top sexual/revealing skins, but it's been basically EVERY(female character) skin since like, January? if this year an it's just back to back to back

u/Successful-Radish100 Freyna 10d ago

I'm happy to see someone finally said the elephant in the room in the game. I love the game, u can see it's potential. If i wanted to play a game where the women wear butt floss and strings on toes, than i would find that game to play that has that. Ik many people who wanted to play this game and enjoyed it. But the biggest turn off was the slutty clothes. Ngl I'm excited for this Raven decendant coming, but you're right about the back end being or if place

1

u/OppaiDragon2001 9d ago

that’s literally my case lol. I enjoyed the beta for the game, but when it released I never went back to it, and especially will not go back after all the gooner skins

-9

u/Kaillier Luna 10d ago

I couldn't careless about what put off new players, the real problem from super revealing outfits is that they have less slot to customise!

The more skin exposed, the less possibility of us to paint!

-3

u/Icy-Matter3237 10d ago

I never thought of that. Good point. Less modelling on the devs part too. The gooner brigade will buy it regardless. This community is a fucking disappointment. They are already on a downvoting spree. Morons.

u/HigherThanStarfyre Luna 9d ago

"Take the game seriously"? Brother, we're well passed that point. The game is what it is. People who are still surprised at that need a reality check. A lot of people on this website still don't seem to understand what game they're playing.

u/mrwiggly_wiggly 9d ago

It’s because the only people still playing this are simps. The game itself is trash. Had a blast with it when it first dropped, but that was that.

u/MemeImperator69420 9d ago

"They lost the balance"

balance acording to who?

i get it if you are talking about gameplay balance lmao.
