Y'know, Klei, the longer you wait the more embarrassing this is getting


Recommended Posts

Where's my goddamn money Wigfird'n'Willow cinematic + ancient skins?

Was there anything said about them this update and I just missed the info?

As much as I don't really care about their skilltrees and the cinematic that'd just show them going around doing goofy things, I feel that people that do want to see that are being treated unfairly by Klei

It'd be nice if we got the animated Willow blast.

Also i don't think we are getting that cinematic. If we did we'd have by now. But who knows they might combine their skill tree animation with the next one.

I love how most people don't even remember that Wilson also misses his Archalic skin set lol. 

At this point he's more forgettable than those random downsides that Walter has, haha.:cold:

No hate but some really weird choices were made. We were told on roadmap/stream that there will be skins, cinematics, teasers even without being tied to updates, want to believe. 
Let's be honest, ruins content is the thing that really brings HYPE, even when it's only skins

Respectfully, I think you may be expecting a pattern that isn't actually there. When the first short + skin sets came out, I think it was very reasonable to think that Klei would be doing them every time, but we've gone 3 months without it now and all signs point to that having been a one time thing. It's not embarrassing or unfair to anyone for Klei to do something once and then proceed not to do it a second time just because people were expecting it a second time.

I have to agree here. This a pretty entitled way of thinking.

I think this site can be super entitled sometimes, but they promised an explanation for the last skill spotlight’s unrelated short and never delivered on that. They should at least say something

Exactly. Unfortunately I wasn't able to find the post, since it was most likely said in some forumite's thread instead of the update release one, but the devs definitelly said that there was a reason why Willow and Wigfrid update that dropped in late December had an October-themed cinematic with completely unrelated characters

And they said that the skins and explanation would be provided. So, back in January, one could read that as "Oh, there were some problems at the end of the year and they had to delay/switch things around" but now, 3 months later and after a proper update release, this feels more like the devs have only started working on the skins/cinematic after the community backlash. Hence why I said that this is getting embarrassing

How many times I must tell you people, Wilson is a joke character to Klei. Enjoy making rot into poop :juggling:

It hurts. I'm still holding out for their skins and cinematic. 

It feels so bad to have waited all that time and then to just not get anything. 
I really hope the format and skin line isn't just ditched and was a one time thing...

They said that an explanation would be provided and that it was related to the roadmap, which then gave the explanation that animated shorts won't always be related to their update (and might even release entirely on their own sometimes). Klei never mentioned any sort of skins for Willow and Wigfrid, that is an expectation of a pattern that wasn't actually there.

Still, I'm sure you can understand how some feel a bit siked out, myself included, when they decided to adopt this philosophy right before their favorite characters' time to shine was upon us, Willow and Wigfrid getting the short end of the stick like usual.

Wigfrid is my favorite character and she's never gotten the short end of any sticks ever. She was the most powerful character from like 2014-2020 (she was practically the only character I would play in DST before reworks began) and then the skill tree has put her right back on top. I can't speak as much for Willow as I am only a casual Willow enjoyer but she's got probably the most merch next to Wilson, appears in most any animated short I can think of, and had an absolutely fantastic skill tree that's given me more playtime as her than I'd done since like 2015. There have been multiple times in my life where I could go to gamestop and find Willow there if I wanted to. She got a new skin two days ago.

I can totally understand the disappointment of expecting new stuff for your fave and then not getting it, but like. It's not like this was Wortox and Warly getting robbed of a once-in-a-lifetime short or something. I think Wigfrid and Willow fans are probably some of the luckiest out there.

You are right in knowing nothing about what it's like for people who actually enjoy the characters, since you don't main them at all.

There is no point being so dismissive about characters you don't care about. 

i have hardly played any characters except wigfrid and willow and wendy for the past several years

I think it was talked about (although not directly) in the roadmap for this year. They said they would drop some shorts, along other stuff, in between the updates. The merm and pig short was just a valentine's tale, so maybe the wig and willow short will drop in the following weeks after the scrapyard update.

Now that I've sat on it, I'm curious if this means not everyone is gonna be getting Archaic skins. Or at least on their respective updates?

Will they wait till they're all done to then do them, like how Wilson was last?
