I donāt think it does. When he chose blue for area 1 it turns the skirt and tie, which are areas 2 & 3, white.
Iām guessing as a streamer heās avoided saying this, as itās a negative part of the game. Never seen anything like this in a game dye system before, even for other Korean games. I doubt they will fix it or change it to suit western players but I guess we can hope.
I donāt mind paying for dyes in games at all, itās a bit archaic and would be better in the aura tbh, like with other games. Iāll never buy the aura just for bifrost points, it doesnāt really benefit me enough. A system that makes an already paying feature worse however just makes the experience feel bad. On top of AGS limiting or removing dye options from some items at all, theyāre really not catering to/promoting these features for the people who actually spend money on cosmetics.
Iād rather buy a dyable outfit and then spend Ā£20 a month on the aura, to change all this stuff, than on blue crystals or dye for free and feel ripped off by the weird limiting system.
I have to say I not a fan of the āDying It ALL White Even If You Just Want To Change One Colorā methodology currently being used either.
Basically this makes me want to not dye ANYTHING, because dying ONE thing messes up everything else.
Seems like just another shady business practice. Or perhaps a dev will respond and say, āThis shouldnāt have happened!ā But Iām sure, as many are, this was intentional to make some more quick bucks for cosmetics. Letās play the waiting game for the response.
Yeah this is 100% to make you buy more reagents. Honestly this game has lots of āgotchas!ā with things Iām already spending money on and frankly leaves a bad taste in my mouth
This.
Had to pay to name change a character I wanted to delete to use in a different server when testing the game day 1.
PowerPass, without warning, auto completed all story related roster quests and my new char bumped to after Shushire, not Vern like it was explained.
Now this dye system.
I understand they donāt have full hands on control over Lost Ark Koreaās decisionsā¦
But I still feel cheated
I like most of the low level armors and weapons better than these āclonedā skins, even some of the Korean released skins (which will be most likely edited for NA) not really that interesting. Love the transmog & glamour system in other games, just feels like a huge step back with skinsā¦This current forced-white dye system is a joke plain simple. Sadly itās all about the money as usual.
I was looking for a thread like this. Iām not going to scream the world is ending or that this is a tactic to get more money from us. Iām looking at this from a way that they can make improvements to the dyeing system in the game. I like the fact white dye is free, but would be great if it wasnāt forced on all dye channels when you only want to dye one. Here is hoping they make improvements to the dyeing system because this system is one way we players can show our personalities in game.
Side note: I lolād at the āWhy must this woman coat everything she isnāt paid to touch in primer?ā xD
Imagine deciding you want the front door of your house painted blue to match your blue siding, and you hire someone to come paid your door blue, and theyāre like āno problem, $10ā and you hand them $10 and they paint that door blue but they also paint your entire house white.
Youāre like āhey, I didnāt want the house to be white, I just wanted the door to be blue!ā and theyāre like āno worries man, itās on the house.ā
This is really annoying, I now have 130 pattern reagents and 90 shiny reagents, but 0 dye since everytime I want to change one single color I have to use 30ā¦
I can just about imagine the meetings they had at Smilegate trying to come up with all the elaborate ways and currencies to implement.
Every normal person would just take a dye system from a popular game and use it. SG add two hard to obtain currencies to it and make the system so convoluted that you have to Google how to use it on your first time.
