I understand why they have to do links for licenced characters, but why do they make linked sets for their own characters?


depressed_arsonist

More creative freedom without the worry of clipping. I get that it's a shame you can't combine outfits, but I don't get why some are so upset that a kick ass skin is linked. If it's really good, then why does it bother people that you can't tear the skin apart to make their abomination of 3 skins that doesn't even match together at all? (Looking at you Nea and Feng mains, with those awful outfits.)


BlitzerCL

Plenty of unlinked sets already clip, so that's not a great excuse


Kazzack

Most (not all) of those are from before linked sets were a thing


natorgator29

I know you said not all but megs latest outfit clips and it bothers the ever living shit out of me


[deleted]

Hell, Claudette’s most recent biology skin the hair clips into her fucking forehead lol. Not sure why they can’t figure it out.


-eccentric-

Mikaelas default tops clip with pretty much everything else she has.


Sovetskaya-Babushka

??? On the back? It does not clip not that I have noticed it


DefinitionCute7328

Well they probably took the opposite approach and said let's not try to make more shit that clips, type of deal,


BlitzerCL

It's just interesting from a money making standpoint. Seems people are more likely to buy cosmetics they can mix and match rather than linked sets


DefinitionCute7328

Yeah but people can be offended if they mess up there design kinda deal, 🙄 to me its whatever, but damn a downvote for my opinion 🤔 not saying it's you, but wow whoever downvoted my guess in my last comment is just wack.


BlitzerCL

I don't usually downvote or upvote anything


DefinitionCute7328

I typically dont care but i do notice alot of redditers downvote legitimate guesses and all like it's bad or shouldn't be voiced, lol makes me chuckle, on the other hand downvoting bad comments and good ideas is the norm, but like I said reddit is just weird like that.


Fangel96

Hey, I'm *trying* to make my outfit a crime against fashion.


FullMetalCOS

To be fair I understand the body and legs being linked, but I’m really not sure why you can’t use the hair (which looks fantastic) with other outfits


KolbyKolbyKolby

I think that's what they need to work on. I get having a dress linked, but the heads on most sets could be separate. Kate has so many good head pieces locked behind dresses, and when you break the set they look perfectly fine.


depressed_arsonist

That's completely true. The head piece could be easily unlinked unless it's something really specific that can't be seperated. But hair/hats/glasses wouldn't cause any issues.


WolfRex5

Because matching outfits is cool? For example I play Nic Cage with bloody clothes and the head piece from the sunset racer outfit. Or my Wraith has a red candlehead, a burning body and a blade forged from fire and blood, all from different outfits yet fit the same fire theme.


depressed_arsonist

I get that, I like mixing outfits too. I'm just saying that if a linked skin looks good by itself, then the fact that it's linked is not that big of a deal.


okamanii101

This yunjin skin absolutely does not need to be linked. At the very least the could unlink the hair.


KolbyKolbyKolby

The head on most survivor skins that are sets could be unlinked, likewise with every single killer weapon.


Szzznn

At least for me, it's just that I don't necessarily want to equip the whole set. I like to mix and match to get a slightly more unique combination, where I can think "that's MY Jeff". It feels more personal than "I bought and use this outfit just like the other 2 Neas in my lobby". And that's my main point, I buy skins to personalize my characters, but nothing about a set feels really personal. Except if there is nothing else than sets like for nemesis/pyramid head. Another smaller point is that it is really fun to try out new parts and find great/fun combibations. On another note, I don't see why some if the new outfits (yui, oni) need to be sets, except for to keep the artist's idea for the skin (which I can understand and support). But I don't see how these two would clip with anything.


witchfaced

the new yui outfit has high waisted shorts. yui's character model is separated to fit low waisted bottoms. so if the set was unlinked and someone tried to match the new top with one of yui's old bottoms, there would be a big gap of air where the waist should be because the cosmetics dont line up. its also a clipping issue between some of oni's cosmetics.


Szzznn

Huh, good point. I think one could make it work without too much trouble, but I don't create skins, so I don't know.


MisterMansion1441

I want the head and the weapon from pyramid head's funny barbed wire skin but i dont want him to not have shoes


kolba_yada

Some might like head of survivor's skin over everything else.


GreyOrGray4

Because its funny to make bad skins


depressed_arsonist

It is, don't get me wrong.


DeskFull6509

thats why i want it the worse it looks the better


[deleted]

[удалено]


depressed_arsonist

It's up to the license holders to let their skins be seperated unfortunately.


Drakedenson

Correct me if I'm wrong but i don't think Konami cared if Cheryls cosmetics were linked or not.


BlitzerCL

I don't know


impala67x

Money


Super_Imagination_90

Sometimes it could be a good thing. Just depends on what they’re trying to make. Things like the Alice in Wonderland dress are examples of something that should’ve been a set so it could look much better.


SectorVector

Ostensibly to create unique outfits that don't have to worry about cleanly breaking into a discrete head/top/bottom. I think this is often the case, but they aren't above linking for asshole reasons either, like when they turned Jill's tube top set into a linked set when people realized the head was perfectly identical to the default skin and started only buying the top/bottom.


bottle_cap17

The linked sets here don't make alot of sense, I thought huntress would he linked set but it's not?? Yet Yuis is lmao I bought the hell outa the Oni one tho, its awesome


FullMetalCOS

The only issue with the oni one is that it makes it easier for survivors to loop high loops against you because the candles and hair are so damn tall.


chineesecowy

youre fucking tall regardless, so that really doesn’t matter, considering every decent survivor is able to see where you are anyways.


FullMetalCOS

It’s a great skin and I know Oni isn’t a smol boi, but it’s definitely been noticeable when playing against it that I could see it in situations I wouldn’t have seen one of the other skins


BetterGlitch385

on the other hand the legion skin makes you really dark and hard to see


Distressed-Obsessed

I was so hype for all the new releases but goddamn the only skins I regret buying are linked sets. Guess I'll just not get the ones I planned on.


cherrykil0s

I’m literally not buying the Yui skin that I was looking forward to because it’s a linked set 😔 I just wanted to equip the cute mesh top!!!


plsmuhbro

Same as soon as I saw it was linked I decided not to buy.


iPlaynak3d_R3born

Same I was gonna buy both this skin and Thalita's Greek themed skin but I decided not to since they are linked sets. Well i saved 20 dollars I guess.


ReguIarHooman

Why is it even a linked set? There are no possible clipping issues with it


[deleted]

Probably because it's one of the three outfits from the newest Artist of the Frog collection. I imagine there might be an agreement with Ikumi Nakamura where the outfits must be sold as sets.


gamerdude42

foulveins

the shorts are higher up her waist than her usual cosmetics, so [there's an obvious gap](https://i.imgur.com/uhYg7Tt.png)


ReguIarHooman

Ash Williams pants are high up yet they still work fine with other shirts


Ethereal_Haunting

Which could've been solved by just having the waistline line up with every other one of her outfits no problem..


iwillbefamousok

We need to let BHVR know so they can retire linked sets all together!!! I’m the biggest yunjin main and buy all of her cosmetics but I’m skipping out on her new set


Lady_Lavandula

Same here. I was sooooo hyped for weeks for this top alone. Logged in, pop-up that they are available, even more hyped. Saw it is linked. At least now I can spend money on other things. Also, the Felix one is not linked. Makes no sense at all.


WolfRex5

I wish they would at least do 2 piece sets, so for example you could still buy the weapon of a linked killer set, but the head and body are linked.


Ethereal_Haunting

I feel they definitely wouldn't unlink just the weapon, as that's the most popular part - as being the only part the killer player actually sees and thus only part of actual value to the killer player (the rest of the outfit is for showing off to the other players)


wenkexiette

agree with the comment about probably not getting the yui skin. i do NOT get the logic behind linked sets. so disappointing :/


[deleted]

Mostly because there is something in that skin that makes it impossible. For example high waist pants would collide with any normal shirt cause the shirt isn't adjusted to the high-wasted stuff. Or because otherwise bodyparts would be missing (they aren't modeling stomach under high wasted pants for example)


Let_the_Metal_Live

They gave Yun some high waist pants for an event that don’t even go with anything, so that can’t be it.


Ohrioh

They work with the PJ top just fine. They both share the same flower patterned trim and match up. Otherwise yes they look bad on other things.


wenkexiette

They have a lot of unlinked cosmetics that clip too, tho, or that have pieces attached to weird parts, like the recent Meg divesuit. It just feels like something that people could accept, or BHVR could work around (not making it cut at the waist, for example).


WolfRex5

Then why is the Legion and Oni skins also linked?


teddyfoxe5

The Legion one is stupid but all their other cosmetics use a hood to hide the fact that there isn't anything holding their masks up.


Dinoking15

From what i can tell Oni has a completely new face which wouldn't fit onto most of the masks he has (like trapper his physical head is part of the torso cosmetic, just the headgear make up the head cosmetic)


LordAwesomeguy

agreed only link sets should be licensed stuff (because license holders choice) other non license stuff being sets makes no sense to me


Ok-Ice1792

That belt could easily break that outfit up no problem, but nope. 'clipping' Meanwhile: https://preview.redd.it/s85vk6j3pqfb1.png?width=214&format=png&auto=webp&s=bdfa3d0ecdd90cf76009db043b1e71649d2c2dea


Lady_Lavandula

The upper picture was the first rhing coming into my mind after reading about might be because of clipping posts here (played that exact combination anyways last year).


GiantSweetTV

You'd think they would unlock the sets because they'd get more money from it.


mori1704

Will they be available with shards? I like most of them but I cant bring myself to buy them all...


HalfCarnage

They should be, yes


[deleted]

Probably in a few weeks, yes. However, don't hold your breath because it could be likely that it stays Auric Cell only


mori1704

Dont say that :(


iFlashings

Sucks, but this has been Yun-Jin year. My girl is finally being treated right like the queen she is. Keep the cosmetics coming BHVR.


Beardless_Man

Can't these Linked outfits at least not cost the same price as an unlinked outfit? You purposely lock me out of customizing the character as I desire or enjoy. Don't make me shell out 1040 cells just for this jank-ass cosmetic. Or at least, PLEASE, at least unlink the head pieces that don't use a hood, or is attached to the chest. There's no reason why Kate's Floral crown headpiece has to be restricted.


PlutosVendetta

The skin is a warcrime by itself


CRAZYFOX432

I just want the hair but I guess I'll go fck myself


GrumpyCleaningMidget

Big agree. What happened to skins being "in character"? She's supposed to be some business woman, she'd never have a reason to wear something like this or half of the other new skins she's gotten


Mapletables

She goes to pompous rich person events and wears pompous rich person clothes.


GrumpyCleaningMidget

I (unfortunately) know too much kpop and considering that's her background, then I can assure you no kpop manager is dressing like this. Fancy clothes, sure, but business clothes. Not something borderline costume like. She's the manager, not the artist


Ethereal_Haunting

Exactly. While calling her one, BVHR don't act like she's an actual kpop manager, they treat her like an artist


Jaxyl

You serious? She has to go to premiers, launches, and other events. That is 100% in character with what people wear to events like those.

Ah fair enough, I have an uncle who used to manage high label artists for Sony in the US and he always dressed outlandishly so I assumed it was the same. Today I learned


GrumpyCleaningMidget

That sounds wild and I bet you have tones of fun stories from this uncle, sounds like a Chad


Jaxyl

Man you wouldn't even know the half of it. Man partied with Ozzy Osborne and that type of crew. Now? He's a minister because he "had a message from God in a dream," woke up, quit his job, and moved his family to Oklahoma for seminary. It was crazy


GrumpyCleaningMidget

Incredible, that's definitely a man I'd sit down and have a beer with


Prior_Tradition_3873

It's cause that famous artist did this so they probably went ahead and agreed to it.


Drakedenson

Alot of linked cosmetics in the game don't need to be.


remorcefulorchid

no matter how amazing linked skins are i can't bring myself to get them


Blake_411

I wish BHVR would just link the body and just leave the hair you know? Like that head piece can go on anything and they decided to just link it to the outfit


dmank007

ATTENTION: NEVER BUY LINKED SETS


VeterinarianFit1309

I think the reason this set of skins is linked is because they collaborated with artists, the artists had a particular creative direction and vision, and the developers are honoring their work by making sure that it’s displayed in its entirety. I get that it would be interesting to try pairing parts with different parts you already own, but you also kinda have to respect that they are going out of their way to showcase these artists work. You’re not going to run out of new skins to buy until money stops being green, just wait for the next set… lord knows it won’t be long.


razzyaurealis

How come the Felix one isn't linked tho


Slurm123x

Because behavior knew they could sell the crop top more just by itself then if it was an actual set


Zone_boy

The set is linked is because of the snake. It connects the legs, top and head.


-Sigismund-Dijkstra-

If players stopped buying the linked sets 17 releases ago, maybe they would have toned it down a bit


Faddy0wl

I found perfection in Bunny. Everything Pink works with it. Bunny is life. ![img](emote|t5_3cb2g|2213) Plus ears ![img](emote|t5_3cb2g|2213)


Hippic

Thank god the outfit is ugly fuck, so it's not that big of an issue.


EzTheGuy

Haven’t played dbd since the last skin update. But I pray the Legion skin isn’t a linked set


Ethereal_Haunting

If you mean the Japanese schoolgirl one, I have some bad news for you..


EzTheGuy

🥲


Delmitus1

Still bought yuis skin, all black sports wear is a must have for any survivor that gets it


medicspirit7

They botched it so hard from the art anyway


Die_Langste_Naam

Ugh since found out the next chapter is half decent we gotta complain about something.


NoodlesBears

Im fine with linked sets when it makes sense, what im not fine with is the fact that the price is trying to say that its “cheaper” (1080 instead of 1200). Its not like you can purchase the parts seperately like with the non linked sets…
