Klei we need to talk...


Recommended Posts

Hello Klei, we need to talk... take a seat and grab a nice cup of hot cocoa. To get to the point, i want to talk about skins... I must say you guys do an amazing job on keeping us all looking fresh and cool with your beautiful designs. But if I see one more skin of an Umbrella or Straw Hat, I'm going to  pop Wes's Balloons. But to be more serious, skins i would LOVE to see in the upcoming future which I have complete faith we'll eventually see is skins for the following items:

Eyebrella ( ASAP please ) 

Furnace  ( Furnace skin would look bad*ss)

Lightning Rods ( They deserve a new face after all those bolts of lightning they've saved our bases from)

Dark Swords ( Need to kill stuff with stuff that looks cool)

Endothermic Firepit ( Because the cooler it looks, the cooler you are)

Glow lamp / Mushlights ( Gotta light up those Bases with fancy looking lights ) 

Pig house ( So it feels better making them homeless by breaking them ) filthy pigs

Bunny Huts ( Read above ) 

Cobblestone and other variants of craft-able turf ( Carpet, Marble, Wooden Flooring )

Walls ( Because Glermz needs to litter the world with more different looking variants ) 

Atleast 46 more Variants of Lantern skins ( please ) 

Anyhows, thank you for taking the time to read this and for the awesome content you guys keep pumping out.

Hmm maybe a dumbrella reskin from shipwrecked

Maybe some kind of a gothic furnace would look coll imo

No idea

Shadow katana pls

Maybe an endothermic fire pit with spikes coming out of it (antlion vibe or sthn)

Maybe just some other kinds of lamps like in hamlet

So Yeah I had an idea of hamlet house skin for pig houses

Maybe an EGGPLANT HOUSE???

Yeah that would be cool like carpets with other patterns and colors

Uhhh can't think much of walls maybe a wall with some spikes or something 

No

 

 

 

Maybe something like a kitchen pack that has some fridge skins crockpot skins mushroom planter skins drying rack skins just everything from food tab

It would be cool to do it with other tabs like 

fighting pack 

science pack 

etc

Walls as well as Turf could confuse new players and quite a lot of people,
don't get me wrong I'd love to see alternate Carpet Designs to the purple stuff, but I think its best to keep those unskinned since those are just confusion material. Piped Fences are already confusing enough

I don't agree there aren't many turfs for base like 4?

What do you mean by "confusing" ?

If people getting confused for a few seconds is such a problem, then why haven't people been complaining about the very concept of skins for years? How are new players supposed to know that the scythe that guy over there is holding is actually a bat bat? Or how about that strange dragonfly backpack, which appears to be an upgrade like a piggyback or krampus sack? Or that brown deer guy over there, is he a new character? What about that spiral spear, did they add forge items to the base game? And what about that fancy lighter that Willow's holding, did the rework give her the ability to upgrade her lighter? And that pumpkin hat and crowbar and forge fire staff and thulecite cane and etc etc etc.

Skins causing confusion would be nothing new. Worst case scenario, you have to type "it's a skin for (item)" in the chat.

Sometimes I feel DST is becoming more of a game about skins than survival, but that's just me.

It is, but in a meta sense that's what it becomes for people anyway once they trivialized the survival by gitting gud. Things will swing back the other way once we get the new content update.

Still generates confusion

Where you say confusion I say whoa factor. I like the mystery that casual players feel when they hop in my world and have no idea what things are again. "Wtf is that?" is a special feeling in this game that goes away the longer you play it. I feel like the skins help keep some of that alive.
