Dr. Safety Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Twitch drop skins have exclusively been universal crafts. This is for good reason, since if someone doesn't play a certain character, they won't be as inclined to watch streams. However, I still want to know what the community thinks of twitch reskins for things like Willow's lighter, Warly's crockpot, Winona's catapult, etc. What do you think?

Harrowick Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 That'd be totally cool by me. I love seeing all the crazy designs that the twitch items have, and would love to see something like, say, a candle for Willow's lighter.

bruhmoment23 Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Bad. I don't want to spend 6 hours of watching a stream in order to get an item for a character i rarely or never play. Would prefer to have them stick as elegant or lesser quality belongings like Abigail, her flower skins and Ashley.

ShadowDuelist Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 As for me I'd be okay, I watch DST twitch streams anyway regardless if there are drops or not. But since twitch drops are actually an incentive to give the game a higher popularity on twitch (and thus, for the game to be better known) I think it would defy its intended purpose, if a much smaller group of people move over to the streams because most of the people that floods twitch during drops are not interested in that character at all. It could work okay for Wendy, Wigfrid an maybe Woodie, but I don't think it would be wise to do it for the rest of the cast. And then the mains of the other characters, although in smaller numbers, will feel excluded.. so I dunno, I think its better for Klei to stick to "available for everyone" skins.

MondayNight Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Objectively would be restrictive from get-go from streamers' reach pov, as only people fancying current-certain-character drop (character-co/mains) and completionists would theoretically bother with said streams. Subjectively I don't care, am "leeching" anyway with open muted tab in background as game streamers aren't my cup of tea.

Owlrust Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 *Unpopular opinion* Maybe keep the twitch drops as it is and make character-specific drops as a twitch prime benefit? A lot of other games have similar features and it would incentivize people to get prime on top of advertisements for Klei (looking at this from a company standpoint, then again I know very little on how this would be useful so take it at face value). Otherwise I think they would make great Klei Rewards options down the line if they wanted to go down that path.

AlternateMew Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Only if every single one of them is for Webber. Not a fan of the idea because of the obvious. It basically becomes a non-reward for anyone\e who doesn't play that character.

BoysenSyrup Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Could be cool for the "70 at base" items, like battle helmets, probably not for items that can only be used by one character and can't be shared.

DarkPulse91 Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 I personally like how they have recently been giving skins to items that currently dont have them. So hopefully they keep to giving character specific skins during the character refreshes, and give us those unique universal skins as twitch drops. But maybe IF the character refreshes are done, they could start doing it then Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/121563-what-do-you-think-about-character-specific-twitch-drop-skins/#findComment-1369906 Share on other sites More sharing options...
