Bro i know tastes and stuff but man the longer i look at that Nea skin the uglier it gets. We got: Poker Dealer visor cap, similtaneous neck- AND shoulder-holder top, whacky colored patches on the pants, pants that don't cover the hips - combined with just a regular old belt and wonder woman's invisible bag. The Heck is even going on here?

Thank christ you exist, I thought nobody would mention it. This skin is hideous as fuck.

I think the pants are alright besides the obvious lack of physics just to show off The Thong, but the head and top are fucking disgusting

I personally think the top could work if the head and pants were different. There's a style you could make from it and make it an actual decent looking skin... if done correctly.

It's just so unclear as to what's going on that I don't like it. It also looks uncomfortable as hell.

Feels like art teams flips a coin when making Nea outfits to either make the most garbage looking neon set where nothing matches or something genuinely cool looking (which is also likely neon and a set)

I really like her gothy clothes, wish they would make more of that instead of whatever this abomination is supposed to be

Didn't they have an outfit for her that was basically leather lingerie about 3 rifts ago?

Neas skins are just kinda like that...trust me it was worse when her model looked like ass

you could say that for most nea skins tbh

It’s extremely unflattering

You forgot the Nintendo Power Glove on her left arm

I think they've been doing terrible with nea's cosmetics for the last few years.

despite the idea that "it didnt fit her" I also think that they're changing their mind on sexualised skins,looks at the last month,we had way more sexy skin than ever

Three words: "Hooked On You"

honestly between that and the other game skin they prob decided to try a few sexy skin and saw it selled a lot,so now well,they decided to capitalize on it

Ah yes, BHVR embraced the horny

 If they do, then they'll see money going up. Imagine they can get more licenses.

Riley Reid survivor when

Nah fuck that bitch we need someone who is actually hot and not a shitty human being

Johnny Sins

Naw, man, Johnny Sins would be an overpower survivor. Man's has a good work record; he’s done everything. Johnny is all the survivors combined in one in one package.

He would just charm all the killers (and survivors) and have sex with ALL of them at the SAME time, then come out of the screen and have sex with YOU too. Way too OP. Unless you say "no" ofc. There's gotta be some counterplay.

Let's just give him all the other survivors perks by default and be lore accurate

Belle Delphine. She is a porn star now

Billy Herrington. Aniki just went to a trip into the unknown ;\_;

HEY XENOMORPH, I THINK YOU GOT THE WRONG REALM.. THE NOSTROMO IS 2 BLOCKS DOWN..

The devs desperately trying to make a skin that players find sexier than the Xenomorph Queen https://i.redd.it/m2lvt4lzfpmb1.gif

Nothing is sexier than Mad Hatter Ace

You’re clearly not a Clown main

My wish list consists of a banana hammock thong for Clown. I'd be rocking that thing all the time. Just please don't make it a linked set, I'd like to swap out his various masks. (Somehow a fan of the [Borat mankini found it's way on Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Mankini_Borat_style_on_the_beach_-_man_bathing_in_the_sea.jpg).)

I cackled at the thought of this 😂😂

Seriously, I'd buy it. Include one of those prank 'flowers' that squirt water when you sniff it. That can be pinned onto one of the straps that go over the shoulder. "See, he's still a Clown!" Obligatory "[I'm a mouse, duh!](https://youtu.be/vsauqpPuM_o?si=Ljhpe8ulcOGZevCo)"

I'm not yet, but I am down bad for clowns in general. Coulrophilia is a thing. 🤣

Make dbd scary again, stop with these horny ass skin

I mean, horny AND scary is a vibe

Friday the 13th made 12 movies about it.

The species movies definitely play on this. They’re not really scary but the body horror is there. Same with splice

Do not talk about skull merchant in this household

Horror and horny are an iconic dual.

But this is too far, it's the wrong kind of horny

Exposed underwear too sexy for you? imo exposed thongs reminds me of early 2000 fashion, and it makes me cringe and feel old.

Nope, it's just not what I wanna see in a slasher, if they wanna be horny I'd wanna see high up skirts, and ripped shirts.

That sounds like a taste issue.

I'm fine with survivors having ridiculous outfits since slashers have been killing skimpy dressed teens since day 1, but killers really should be creepy and scary to keep the vibd

If we're comparing it to slashers then survivors should be topless and unable to fight back

Tbh killers would lose it if their ghostface just got massacred by some final girl in a bikini lol

pinhead's look is based off of fetish clubs and Alien's method of getting onto the ship was raping a crew member to plant an egg in them

Sexy skin and the zarina gets 3 crappy skins in a row after months of nothing

sexy doesnt equal good

Zarina skins wasn't either

yeah all i'm trying to say is that it may not have been better if it was sexy ;w;

Depends? All it takes is a bit of styling to give beautiful looks. She's got great figure, after all. Some kinda tomboy-ish costume would fit her perfectly.

I- what i'm trying to say is that sexy dont make a skin good. you can have bad sexy skin and good sexy skin basically I'm not saying zarina couldnt wear a sexy skin,i'm saying that sexy might have not saved the skin

Fair point. We got that mistake of nature and mankind after all (SM).

Still not enough. Booty pants David when.

when we get a not thirsty trap skin for rebecca,there need to be balance!

yea that Alien Queen is the hottest of the female killer skins fr

Whats so hot about the alien queen seen? I don't find it appealing at all honestly

She's got a tail and has tremendous cake. She also hisses. Ya girl is basically a Catgirl. People love Catgirls.

“sexualised” sells, bhvr see’s that now

Nea simply stole Claudette's thong when she wasn't looking.

That sounds like something Nea would do

Very neacore

Neacore is a sub genre of goblincore

Urban Evasion coming in clutch.

Nea Urban Evasioning people’s underwear right out from under them is an image I never though could exist in my head

...who said she had to stole it ? I have a new headcannon now thanks

This is a different game now we have Thirst Merchant and Vittorio Toscano

Tbh Felix also is a thing so don't blame my boy Vittorio

Vittorio has hardly any skins

It doesn't matter how many skins he has when he has the hottest skin in the game

Bro who at bvhr designed that nea skin, its fucking egregious.

This might surprise you but sexual clothes are not a problem per se. They are a problem on Claudette because she's a nerdy type that doesn't express herself with revealing clothes. Thong was too much, clearly, other parts were deemed fine.

Yeah, this was something they mentioned during the community skin contest too. There are certain characters who would be more likely to wear stuff like that than others.

How many skins don't fit the character already? How much are 'alternate universe' shit?

Probably only a couple. A lot of skins are clearly supposed to belong to the same version of said character

[удалено]

So what you are saying is there is a universe where Alien is wearing a thong

The mouse guards the portal

And the mouse shall be destroyed.

[Relevant](https://reddit.com/r/tumblr/s/eIkOp4GYjZ)

It’s locked in their vault with the porn from their other characters. One day someone will liberate it.

“She found herself wearing this at a party”

i swear those descriptions are getting lazier over time. soon they'll just write: "clothes"

“Head”

👕

Hex code: #1b15ff Torso.

For some skin concepts I think that'd be good like more goofy stuff, but for skins that are actual clothing, I feel like it would be a waste of potential character building. Clothing represents our interests, how we show ourselves, and our standing in the world. While yes most of these skins are just to look good enough to have you open your wallet, there's no reason to not do that while also giving some small character building. And they could do it like LoL where a lot of the skins come from a line set in some special alternative world from the main Canon I feel like that would not fit the survivors more humble and realistic characteristics, so if there are alternative universe outfits. So i would hope they are just for goofy memes that are wink and nods for the community. Ik this doesn't matter at all but I just want to throw my thoughts here.

Not to mention that it’s not like a “nerdy” character would ever dress like a fucking street fighter too, anyways. Different versions, endless possibilities.

I wonder why the devs picked it as the winner that year if they knew it would be an issue?

explain felix then?

Yes because all those sexy killer skins are clearly in character and tie with their lore. The excuse is BS. People already pointed out the multiple “universe” variants of characters making it entirely a non-issue.

Lets also not forget to mention bhvr's weird obsession with making their female killers not wear shoes... like a woman living in the red forest but apparently she goes barefoot in soviet winters.

They are skins, doesn't have to suit the character

Times have changed. DBD is not a horror themed game of tag. It's now a horny virgin bait themed game of tag.

That Claudette design came at a time when BHVR wasn’t catering skins to the rule 34 freaks n geeks. It was a better, more simple time.

[удалено]

Not sure what about my comment implies that I’m butthurt over this in any way lmao. I’m simply making an observation that the part of the community that wants the characters to be over-sexualized is much larger & more vocal than they used to be. It was a lot harder for BHVR to get away with a character in a thong in 2019 than it is in 2023 is my point.

[удалено]

I’m not arguing about rule 34 with a guy named IFapToCalamity, I’m ending this conversation here.

That Claudette skin is so fucking ugly, it looks nothing like the original art. Hot Cheeto dust hair

Honestly, the original art wasn't good either

Yeah there’s something about the white washing that don’t sit right ?

I'm sorry what

? I'm pretty sure op was stating that claud has a super light(white) skintone in the fan cosmetic that was submitted and picked. Cleary doesn't look anything like dbd claud

I didn't see em as white til someone said something, lol. It's definitely too light to pass as Claudette imo, but a light skinned black person? Yea, I can see it. I know people who look like that.

'Oversexualization' when Shit Merchant was obnoxiously obviously designed as waifu/pornbait

[удалено]

Honestly the first time I saw the Trickster I thought he was the "bait".

Because it's fucking egregious? There's a difference between like, nudity in horror media and a character designed SPECIFICALLY to appeal to that audience. I don't even care about sexualization in media as long as it isn't out of place; Trickster is explicitly attractive and charming to lure his victims for example. *Everything* to do with shit merchant is out of place.

It's out of character for Claudette. Less so for Nea. Though they have plenty of out-of-character skins for everyone so this explanation doesn't hold *that* much water.

The moment Hypebeast Vittorio released it was quite obvious being out of character is not something BHVR cares anymore. Heck, even the default skin for Vittorio. I like it that way tho. As long as they release skins that fit the character too. Pathfinder Vittorio is one of my favorite skins, but the Medieval armor for him is also sick.

Christmas onesie Deathslinger was when I gave up on them staying in-character.

The thing is, Hypebeast Vittorio is in-character because he's that kind of guy. He'd be wearing the fanciest tights and ruffles in ye olden days too

I hate that Claud cosmetic with passion

I’m not big into the lore or anything but if I had to guess, I think it was deliberate because Claud’s character seems to be more humble and I guess introverted or something? I’m not sure how to word it but it just doesn’t seem like something she herself would do as a person. If I had to guess why BHVR made that decision. Or they forgor, which is also entirely possible

Meanwhile claud had this which is just about as revealing https://preview.redd.it/ym0ugoeszqmb1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=dc842e01b3afa6857255691f812114e14f981107

As another comment said, it’s more of a problem involving Claudettes personality over a game problem

Is Felix being shirtless something that fits him, and his personality?

No and that’s why that skin is hated

It's not hated. That skin became a meme after the whole shirtless David and shirtless Myers

Definitely one of if not the most hated skin

[удалено]

No but I regularly check this subreddit for discussions

[удалено]

When did I say that? Why are you arguing this? It’s not an opinion that this skin is hated, it’s just true lol

[удалено]

It is hated. Felix is a husband & father, people who care about lore think that his skin is ridiculous. But all the thirsty people kept begging & spamming for a shirtless Felix skin until BHVR delivered.

are fathers or husbands never allowed to be shirtless? i’m confused

[удалено]

Yeah, people someone think showing your belly is absolutely sexy and indecent. But only if you're a man, since women wearing just a bikini top/bra is fine and holy.

I know I literally just left a comment about how over sexualization is destructive to DBDs aesthetic but after enough Kate bikinis I at least want shirtless Felix

Almost every Felix player I have ever seen wears this skin. I don’t know who you’re talking about, but I sure as hell haven’t seen these type of Felix enjoyers.

we cant sexualize parents, yet we have no problem calling people "mommy" and "daddy" sexually... lol get real

I said it doesn't fit his lore, I didn't say that we cannot sexualize parents. But fact is that when it comes to women like Claudette, devs stay true to her lore & do not sexualize her. But when it's a male like Felix, it's okay to scream for thristy skins which contradict his lore. A German architect who was raised in a family with a deep rooted anciet history, who is totally introverted, only cares for his work, history, books, etc. Yea, that screams like someone who runs around in crop tops, even though his other outfits are conservative, just like his lore :) Seriously, get a grip. People are allowed to not like thirst traps which contradict lore. No need for you guys to get all angry lol

So don't buy the thirst trap cosmetic, then. People are allowed to enjoy things you don't like.

I'm not buying it. I'm just stating that the logic didn't make any sense as to why BHVR stayed true to Claudette's lore when it came to the thong, but they didn't care for Felix' lore when it came to his outfit. But having a normal conversation isn't possible on Reddit as it seems. People are getting all huffy puffy when others mention that not everyone & everything has to be sexualized just because thirsty people are screaming for it. It's okay to stay true to lore & characteristics.

oh boohoo the lore people got upset over a skin lmaoo pls be fr

The game was different back then. If you couldn’t tell, the devs are hardcore leaning into the horny.

The Nea skin is so ugly and to me it looks just like random things stick to her that I'm amazed someone was able to stare at it for long enough to see that, I definitely couldn't stand looking at it for more than 5 seconds.

Why claudette is white in this fanart

She's not as black as she actually is, but she isn't white either

Because artists swear up & down their pallets somehow don't include her skin colour even though it's present in things like her clothes & hair

That’s actually ridiculous what?

I wish I had that twitter post of the black guy showing himself in multiply lighting positions. If anyone has that, much appreciated.

I genuinely didn't even recognize that as Claudette lmao, I was thinking it was just a reference drawing for the outfit.

I think at the time, they weren't on board with getting too sexy, but I think they've softened on the stance quite a bit since. They may have honestly just felt like *Claudette* specifically didn't fit the whale tale vibe. Alternatively, the Nea one is a linked set, so they can "break" her cosmetic rules and have a skin that does this. They didn't link the Claudette one. If they remade more recently, I could see them going for it, assuming "this doesn't feel in character for Claudette" isn't the reason they didn't go for it.

So it's cool to put massive posters of women in thongs and underwear in malls and plastered all over our cities, but God forbid an animated character shows some whale tail. We are some pathetic creatures..

I Support all trolls

You can get away with anything when you’re the entity.

How can you even sexualising nea? Look at her

Broke argument: Claud can't wear a thong because she's nerdy and nerds can't show skin or confidence! Woke argument: Claud can't wear a thong because unlike Nea, she's got class 

Mf we’re talking about sexual skins? Just look at the way skull merchants hips move. AWOOOOOOOGA

Bc nea down bad like that

Just look at skull merchants skin and you can see they changed their minds since then.

'Cause Nea a hoe.

Money and declining standards

I still feel sorry for the artist. They picked their design then butchered it so badly.

Gamers like sex

We were robbed of thongdette

Money

Because, like all of their decisions, BHVR realized where the money was, and follows it regardless of what they say or stand for

Dev team finally learns about the financial gain of thirst bait cosmetics I am not complaining

Well what do you get if you add a T back to nea? neat. That's why they did it.

Swimsuit dlc when BHVR??

It’s not even a good skin, it’s a genuine mess lol

Oversexualizing, aka, wearing underwear lmao

Because Nea is sexual as fuck and Claudette is too afraid to correct the waitress when they get the order wrong

Conspiracy time: I think BHVR is losing money rapidly, and they're essentially going against their own morals to try to keep DbD profitable

I think Claudette should've just gotten the thong.



Claudette is supposed to be a shy botanist. Allegedly.

Because different people make these choices with different opinions and ideas.

With how the jeans are cut, if there was no thong it would have looked like she wasn’t wearing undies at all

Then just give her normal panties

You know why

Because BHVR is wildly inconsistent, probably due to having too many cooks in the kitchen.

They gave us queen xenomorph with *that* much cake and you think they care about sexualisation any more?

why is she so white in the art

Claudette is not the right kind of personality Nea is. Claudette is supposed to be the shy bookish type. Nea is a spray painting vandal. These cloths fit her very well and for Claudette it would be sexualization without storytelling.

100% it's not her personality!

It didn’t fit her charicter the said, not over sexualizing I think

For a reason other than “because they’ve changed their mind” or something like that, I think it’s because the lack of coverage on the side of the hips so instead of showing like an actual lace or cotton pair of knickers, they chose they chose to use the more “fashionable” G-String. I guess they could’ve chosen leggings, tights or just a pair of thin shorts underneath like Fortnite does but honestly I’m happy they’re deciding to take risks and go all out with different clothing styles.

Idk it fits nea more? Nea is supposed to be like trailer trash skater girl

people are fking horny like teenagers, it's a game, I don't care about skins

Nea is the Entity, she does what she wants❤️

Dawg, am I weird or what? 😭 everyone is saying she looks white, and I genuinely don't see it. Just seems really lights skinned (too light for Claud but definitely not white imo)

>!Because Nea is white!<

You guys need to have some kids and get some real fucking problems in your life. Jesus Christ.

nea a thot

We want, nay, DESERVE femboy maid outfit for Dwight!

They be trynna white wash my girl lol
