Chernobyl Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 So recently, I noticed that Winona has like the most skins in the game? Yet is not much of a favorite besides a few and seems to just be a pick and switch. I wonder why she has so many? Maybe just easy to model her skins? I'm curious to know.

ShadowDuelist Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 I think it's just a coincidence, on the dev's side. On the other hand she seems to be very important for the lore, like at the same level of Wilson and Maxwell, at this point. It's even possible that she's the only one who can redeem or save Charlie, so yeah... her presence's a big thing.

pyroisshy Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 winona has been around longer than any other DST exclusive character so its natural she would have a lot of skins, but clearly artists at klei like her more than webber/willow (most recent skin came out over a year ago while winona got 3 skins in the time since) Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/124466-winona-a-dev-favorite/#findComment-1401483 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ever since then it seems to have been just catching the other characters up to them. I guess the same might be said about Winona since the first skin collection that included her (not counting the sets that were the entire cast) was the original Verdant collection, which was essentially filled with the characters who previously got no love. I think the only thing that was out of the ordinary was her getting a second winters feast skin, which was certainly odd.

thegreatJash Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 Well the amount of skins she has doesn't really matter because most of them are average at best imo. 39 minutes ago, Dr. Safety said: I think that the Willow Webber thing is that they were both "fan favorites" so anytime a new event came around they always got skins (as well as Wendy and Wilson).

JaccK1618 Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 She's got most skins, she's on like half the vignettes, I think Klei is trying to make her the new Wilson. But it won't work.

Sapientis Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 I like Winona, I like her character concept, I love people of action. She is practical, hard working, honest and straight forward which reminds me of my aunt a lot (she also has a sister she'd jump into fire after). I'm not that content with her switch-build-switch play style, but I understand she's got other things to do, like looking for her sister! I guess she has so many skin sets because she's not fixated to one particular role, she's versatile so it's probably easier to make a skin that would match her concept.

If we can get particular skin collections finished, then they should make a checklist of skins that need to be tackled. Hope we get to see other characters get to be part of character specific skins. Would love to see what Forelorn Doll as a skin collection would be like.

Would love to see what Forelorn Doll as a skin collection would be like. I actually wouldn't mind if each survivor got one collection that was exclusive to them since it allows things like orphan Willow or Young Wickerbottom. Of course I thought this before Willow's rework and was quite surprised to see that opportunity used to make the Forelorn Doll skin. The one thing that confuses me is what they are planning to do about all the new characters who never got a proper GoH, Survivor, Triumphant, etc. Will they eventually get all those skins? If so, will other characters get skins that match the skin sets that those characters have, like Oasis and Trawler? Only time will tell lol Edit: Maybe each character will end up getting 2 skin sets exclusive to them in the long run, so Wormwood would have Oasis and Hollow, Wortox would have Uncorrupted and Minotaur, and every other character will have one more exclusive skin after their rework, since all the new characters started with one skin from a new set and two skins from existing sets (with the exception of Wormwood and Wortox) Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/124466-winona-a-dev-favorite/#findComment-1401627 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Szczuku Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 Since her release I did notice that the devs put her in almost every artwork they released since. Halloween? Winona. Christmas? Winona. YotC? Winona. Turn of Tides trailer? Winona, etc. She almost became second Wilson in that aspect, being a mascot of the game. I just assumed that the devs wanted to give her proper screentime since she didn't have much artwork at that time. But yeah, now it just seems like she's a new dst mascot alongside Wilson. As for skins, I don't mind. She received (I think) every skin so unless devs plan on adding new collections, it means that there will be no more Winona skins. And we may get new skins for other characters.
