A thread that got rather derailed I might add, (original poster here) I just made this commenting how it was odd that we hadn't heard anything...and now here we are 26 pages later. Want to buy button to turn off replies this thread served it's purpose lol.

Most dungeon sets eventually become dyeable, and when they do, people always get excited. What's nonsensical about it? (?_?)

As for Shisui gear, people were eager to have it dyeable and have been requesting it from day 1. Here you are. Is all this drama really necessary?

It just makes it look like they had no plans or ideas for the summer event gear and when dungeon gear does becomes dyable, it's usually not until the next expansion. All crafted levelling gear from 50-56 (new in HW) and 60-66 (new in SB) have once been dungeon pieces.

I also vaguely recall the devs (or Yoshi-P himself) saying it takes them around 6 months to design new gear.

Forums are a very poor representation of any game's community. The vast majority will never post here, and I'd hazard a guess most won't care at all. They'll just look at this as a pretty outfit they now get to dye.

They probably could have, if it works for the story they have for the event.

Well I believe it can go either way. You will have those that wont post and that just love the game, then you have those that hate some decisions and are not sure if they want to stay and that are not posting (know someone like that) and you will have those that will simply unsubb without a word.

It is important to get compliments when you do something right, because it will help to understand what content we want and it just feels nice too. But imo its even more important to know where you still have deficits or just did something wrong. But other then the forum people dont have a outlet for that. (Thus I feel that they need to invent some ingame polls)

Even if only a minority goes to the forum it is still quite telling that we have a longer thread about this topic which shows that maybe this was not a great decision.

Let's be serious. They can if they want to, but they won't because of profit. I can't speak for others, but I do find it a little disappointing that the fuga oufit was added to the kupo store before SB and then we didn't get any other traditional Japanese clothing in game with the whole kugane town and when moonfire hits, it's a partial redyeable set of shisui gear instead of a new traditional Japanese clothing (or new swimsuit).

SE could just have a bit of foresight and make gear dyeable from the start. Also, lets not go patting SE on the back for now giving us a single style of the Shishui gear that is going to be dyeable. First they take an easy path for the event gear, then they aren't bringing over all the styles to the table.
