*This is a discussion separation from the Most Desired Revamp Poll to further enhance our communication with Nexon and Devcat KR, as well as the KR community.Are you a fan or a hater of the Beauty Coupon System? Now, I know we all love the models, so hold on a second. What I'm asking is your viewpoint of what should be done to change or improve this system. Most of us know that Beauty Coupons are only found in the Gachapon, but is it really as popular as the devs think it is?
[Problem #1]So who here is afraid to genderbend because they love their current face? Not only do Beauty Coupons make the Pons system obsolete, they remove key features of Mabinogi that kept it slightly modern. The rebirth system and exchanging NX for Pons. (Beauty Coupons prevent genderbending by turning it into an undesirable feature due to problems 3 and 4.)There are so many ways to fix this problem and bring back the player investments into Mabinogi.
[Problem #2]To be honest, the Dressing Room needs a revamp of it's own. Newbies and oldies HATE the old hairstyles. They lack the upgrades that Tir NPCs received and are hideous to even think about.
[Problem #3]Beauty Coupons create a pay to get the look you want via gambling, which is highly unappealing.
[Problem #4]The cost from Problem #3 to get and keep the look you want is far too high for the normal player. This is also very unappealing.
[Solution #1] The solution is simple, all Beauty Coupon options are the new Premium Options, while all the old Premium Option are free to anyone to use. After all, the current premium hair and eyes styles aren't all up to par with the artwork of competing MMOs and the recently added hairstyles. This way players can still rebirth the way they like, and the rebirth system won't seem like a barrier.
[Solution #2] Working with the Maplestory team to create a UI to save and use face, eye, and hair styles for Mabinogi characters is highly demanded and recommended. Just make sure you leave at least two slots open for free and the rest cost pons to unlock. Wouldn't want players to be upset by a complete pon system, now would you?
[Solution #3] The Unlock Option, widely discussed by players on having Beauty Coupons serve as a permanent unlock as opposed to one time use and many times a loss.
[Solution #4] Beauty Coupons as an alternative to buying a Pon option without having to spend any Pon
[Solution #5] The Aeria Games solution, making all the player appearance options in the Dressing Room and on Rebirth completely free for a seamless and flawless genderbend at no cost to the player, aside from the Cash Shop purchases of clothing for the next race or gender.
Comments
but I can't stand default elf face.
I mean, I only change my alts' looks during the Fresh New Look events anyway. Might as well just make it free all the time lolol.
Or they could keep the coupons, but have it unlock the hairstyles on our accounts(and not characters) so we can change hairstyles, and go back. Not this current pile of BS one time use garbage we have. Like currently I have a coupon I paid 13m for on my main I love the style, but for some outfits it sucks due to mass clipping, but I'm stuck with it (or a wig, and no head accessory) as I only want to temporarily change it.
Funny thing is I actually spent more money on pons prior to these idiotic coupons being added as I'd change my hairstyle every 2-3 days I played as I'm very finicky, and get bored of looks fast.
ive had medium sideburn hair for awhile now and i wanna change it but at the same time i dont because i dont wanna pay someone 10m or wait for gacha to come back to get it back
I think making all dressing room options free would be the best though.
I want to live my fantasy life without spending lots of money!!
