    I just wanted the outfit and the hair. I've wanted them both for years. I didn't care if it was one piece or not. It would be nice to be able to dye it, but it wasn't a deal breaker. I use the entire thing on my Dancer glam now. For me, what they gave me was worth it.

    I also think it's valid for people to not like that it's not split into pieces and not find that worth the money and state that's why they won't buy it. I do wish that feedback came without the aspersions on the people that did the work, though. Someone put their time and effort into this and was probably working under someone else's instructions or with the resources a project manager had assessed could be dedicated to the task. Software engineering is always going to have this balance and give and take with resources, no matter how big the team is. There just isn't enough for everything.

    There's a common saying. You can have something cheap, something fast, or something good. Pick two.

    Piecing chest, legs, and feet together and adjusting the meta takes perhaps 1 minute. And for lalafell they must have some kind of auto-scale from the base-model (hyur midlander).
    It's simply lazy for the money they ask for. Lyse's outfit already was tested, when Lyse got to wear it. If anything, lalafell-model needed some testing, but also that is quickly done. (Put on, do some animations).
    There is nothing new, but the lalafell-model and hyur being glewed together into one. Not even the textures had to be remade.

    I would find an excuse if it was half the price of other scion-outfits, because it's that stripped of features. Many wanted a piece or two of it for glam, for their own imagined outfit. Instead we got an undyeable cosplay-outfit.

    Regarding the name of the set, "Ala Mhigan folk dress" was presented in the game itself, so I would have thought to keep that description.
