It’s not meant to be a “contest” it’s meant to give a character who obviously should have X similar feature, X Similar Feature.

While they are similar, the simplistic way if seeing is as a portable chest like chester, they arent the same feature.

Woby isnt attached to a shard, isnt linked to shadow chester neither to a magical chest and isnt accessible from an item that the player must carry with them

Just by seeing how Maxwell's inventory is attached to shadow chester you realize what was the point of this feature: sharing an inventory in a multiplayer environment

Chester and hutch are similar, bundle wraps are similar, pearl's fishing boxes are similar, any inventory extension can be called similar to these inventory extensions

Maxwell doesn't deserve his own Woby because he basically has one as portable in solo. In multiplayer you gotta be more mindful as you're sharing resources. If there's no other Maxwell then you're usually safe, but best to not rely on this feature too much besides being a resource transport, that's it. I often use it in multiplayer to unload tons of resources each time I go for a mass gathering and it makes an amazing way to get all the resources to base if you're not a Winona or don't have one to help you with it.

Because Maxwell has 50hp, doesn’t have a day 1 Beefalo Mount, or ranged slingshots, or a portable and Redeployable healing tent and campfire?

Yeah yeah sure Maxwell Strong, whatever… Maxwell is also only considered “strong” because he can do everything he can Do + Everything Wickerbottom can do too.

If the guy got his own Woby like storage, it wouldn’t be giving him his own Woby, I don’t care how much Monster Meat or Woby Treats you stash in that hat, it’s not going to suddenly grow in size and levitate Maxwell around the map like riding a Magic Carpet.

although.. maybe it SHOULD.  

is everything you post here ragebait?

Well that’s kinda rude, but uhm no? I’m being 100% serious, if Walter players can now toggle rather or not other players have Access to Woby, Why shouldn’t Maxwell be able to do the same for his Top Hat?

please do understand that I’m referring exclusively to the inventory stored in the hat, and whatever is stored into the shadow storage box would still be accessible to other players.

This means: Klei would need to give Maxwell players the option to choose if what they store in the hat is “personal items” or “public storage” (sent to the shadow box)

This isn’t the unreasonable ask your all making it out to be.

ALSO while we are At it, give me an option to lock player backpack inventories too…

no this isn’t a joke, and I understand that this could lead to trolling behaviors.. but- if you try to take someone else’s stuff in Lego Fortnite it will pop up a notification that “this pack belongs to another player”

And because of the way DST is designed (forcing you to drop your backpack when equipping armor or carrying heavy objects) maybe DST should have that too?

i think most people just assume the shadow dimension belongs to Maxwell since he has the easiest access to it. I don't think it should only belong to him, and it doesn't seem like it was intended to be that way either. Besides, if you're playing solo, you get 12 bonus slots anyways by virtue of being alone, and even then there is basically a lock anyways by forcing everyone else to create shadow chester just to access that inventory which i highly doubt most people bother with

I completely agree with you.

I am relatively a new player, started playing almost 9 months ago. So I understand that these older players would not like the change or want the things to stay the same with which they are comfortable with... but from a newer perspective, one would reasonably assume the Magician Top Hat is an exclusive inventory to Maxwell. Even the Shadow Chest says "Imprison you belongings in a shadowy vortex". A prison has a lock and key, also my BELONGINGS means they are mine... so come on.

The people not in favor of the idea have this idealistic view of the servers, maybe they play in private servers with their friends but inventory privacy is a big issue in public servers, where a random may not speak English, may not want to do teamwork (happens very often), is too noob/pro to help. And it's not like I never asked politely in a fun manner for help, I have, and I am telling you from experience that people don't want to do labor after the first few times. Meanwhile, for walter, wobby has been given a skill to drop off items in a chest at base or anywhere else, which is arguably BETTER than Maxwell's M-Tophat !!
