Even more so if skins are unique to the build and you don't have to reskin them each time you switch character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 I'm not sure 'making' or designing something is the same as implementing it into the game.Also, whenever the Devs talk about content creation, whether it be maps, items, events, etc. on Guild Chat, they seem to always talk about how all the different Teams and Team members contributed.

You're severely overestimating how much dev time goes into one thing.of course they make it themselves, they have all what i stated, that doesn't remove the fact that there is quite some work behind it.it takes about 2 months to add a legendary weapon in the game, knowing that one weapon isn't the only thing they have to add.however, within the months of dev time to develop this one weapon they could improve parts of the game that might just take about 2 weeks, something i rather see.

Hashberry.4510 Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 It seems these things drive the whole economy, I would hope for more of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrauls.6519 Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 I'd rather they focus their attention on things they can actually deliver in a timely matter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doggie.3184 Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 There are sooooo many weapon skins that I honestly feel like it's wasted effort now. I rather they focus on making armor skins that go in a different direction for once since everything has generally been the same concept since release, even Elona skins followed the same overused GW2 style of things instead of GW1 Elona's. I hope the same doesn't happen to Cantha, I want them to bring back GW1 Assassin style to diversify the ocean of coats and buttflaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assassin armor in GW1 was honestly terrible.... just skin tight clothing with different shaped oversized blades sticking out everywhere. These designs honestly didn't make alot of sense, they just got gigantic fricking knives attached everywhere to look cool.Cantha had some nice skins, especially the ritualist in my opinion. But assassin armor really hasn't been standing out as a good design. Can agree that we could use more medium armor which doesn't have trenchcoats, tho.

Ayrilana.1396 Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Unlikely that we'll see them when they can just release the skins through the gemstore. That's where a lot of the desirable stuff are getting funneled anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
