New Nova outfit is a disappointment again

I think I'm about done with this class at this point, it's becoming pretty clear she's not one of PA's favorites. New outfit doesn't have any cape toggle and the dye channels for it are questionable, especially the part of the corset on her back sharing a slot with the plated parts on her thighs. Like, why would you link these parts together in the dye menu?

The lack of an option to dye the main part of the plated sections and accents/trimming on it separately is a huge letdown as well. I also personally feel like the thick rawhide leather bodysuit beneath the plate is a real eyesore.

I'm updating this post because I want to say that I do actually like the concept and idea behind this outfit, and I was actually really excited for it to come out after we got the preview. It's just that after getting my hands on it I think the delivery/execution of it is a disappointment in many ways. Why can't we hide the ridiculous spikey plate buttcape? Why do parts of the outfit that are from completely different sections and completely different materials linked to dye together? Why is the suit underneath her plate armor this stitched leather looking thing instead of some classy fabrics more fitting of a character that's supposed to be royalty?

Also honestly feel bad making this post and complaining because I have no doubt that the people on PA's art team are working hard I just feel let down. Maybe I put my expectations too high. I guess I just feel like maybe I should say something in case it could actually make a difference somehow. I like this game a lot despite it's flaws, and of course nothing is ever perfect. I guess I just feel like maybe I should say something in case it could actually make a difference somehow. Feel like my initial tone and reaction in the post was fueled a lot by being upset at the time.

but she has a nice shining golden armor ^_^

ok is true the armor is ugly :^(

This was hidden by admin due to the reports it has received.

Oh boy... I wish I could be positive for you and tell you that the devs get all this feedback and instantly fix it, because it's a product you pay for.

However, not in my experience. I don't know if it reaches the devs or not, but I do know many (and in my case all) of your pearl outfit related issues just don't get fixed. 

The cape toggle has been a problem since the start, for example in 2016 or 2017 many people refunded the Charles Rene outfit because that half-cape-cloth-flap-thing at the back could not be toggled. The excuse back then was that it was not a real cape - yet the Venslar cape cannot be toggled either, but wings on the Ram Horn Witch can and if we for example look at the Shadow Chaser that was released a couple years after all 3 of those, well it has a cape and leggings and you may guess which part of those two gets toggled. If you guessed 'cape', you'd be wrong.

As for the dyes, this does not surprise me. It happens a lot that nonesensical parts get dyed with the same dye slot. I don't have an example off the top of my head, but this outfit is certainly not the only one with this problem.

They probably won't fix that, as they won't even fix broken textures on the Dark Knight's Stella helmet even after 4 different bug reports I have sent, with screenshots and video footage comparing Remastered, non-Remastered, Ranger and Dark Knight. The Ranger's helmet has no issues regardless of the graphical settings and can be dyed however you please as well.
The Dark Knight's Stella helmet is just fine in non-Remastered, but when you go into Remastered, the stars have broken black textures that cannot be dyed. But they care so little that they even used the Remastered DK Stella as a promo image for a sale once, while it clearly had that broken texture even on their own image.

There are other issues with pearl outfits, plenty of them (like how for some Kibelius Divinus outfits for certain classes weapons are properly hidden when sheathed, but for many others they are not and just clip through the wings. Just one example of many) and it makes me angry just thinking about it, since they are so damn expensive.  But they don't care. And if they actually do, well they have an awful track record of showing that.

If you can still get a refund I'd take it if you are unhappy with it. Otherwise I'm afraid it's "Thanks for your money, 'kay bye!"
