"Exclusive" Event items are free for everyone now

[!nstinct]

So you're telling me my 150ish hours of grinding for them back in the days are gone to waste? Not so "exclusive" anymore, might as well make legacy avaible for old/new characters

[Cantrell]

It's a bit true XD
But that's just a game in the end man.

If you're getting mad at spending 150 hours of grinding in DBD for cosmetics for nothing, just wait until you have to deal with the real world and how little the hundreds of hours in DBD helped you out for that.

Kind of a big "So what"

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ that are still released for free.

Those events were before the in-game shop was a thing (or very shortly after in the case of the Scorching BBQ event), when they didn't have a finalised way of having people earn cosmetics.

Now that the Rift is a thing, they can allow people to earn them for free during the event, while also allowing people who missed it to cough up the dough if they really want it (like with the Hallowed Blight/Catalyst events).

I imagine they gave these out to everyone for consistency reasons, and will be following the new module from now on.

Did you enjoy playing for 150 hours? If you did, then you got your reward.
Also that's life in general. Spend 100 hours at a job, make just enough to get by and someone younger, more talented than you gets paid more to do the same job you did for little.

Should everyone also get legacy then? Its not really that different.

Good idea. I really would like a Dwight and Meg legacy.

Legacy items

The difference between the Legacy items and the event items is that Legacy was earned before a major rework of the Bloodweb system. To award Legacy to the rest of the community would severely alienate and undermine that part of the community that been with us since 2016.

So yes, it really *is* that different.

You could easily make the same argument about event items

"Event items were earned before countless balance patches and required heavy grinding to acquire, To award Event items to the rest of the community would severely alienate and undermine that part of the community that been with us since 2017.

If you think about it, all 150 hours of playing DBD was a waste if you weren't having any fun. It's not like you can eat any of the digital goods or use it for a promotion at your job. You can't put it on your resume without the hiring manager raising an eyebrow when they glance over it.

Except they already provided the reason why they are giving this set out (and the previous PAX ones), because they took little to no effort to obtain.

They said that they wont give this cosmetics for free because some players will get mad for playing an event to find out that after 2 years they will give them for free.
