    I recently bought this month's winter themed pack and I like it, specially since I prefer winter above all seasons. I may buy some more cosmetics in later months if I find something to my liking.

    They're fine, as long as anything obtainable in-game is on par, I don't have an issue.

    I am absolutely loving all the Whale bait, I get to watch as Intrepid harpoons and reels them all in so I can have delicious blubber nuggets to eat.

    I think the skins look great, but I just haven't seen "the one", yet. But, I'm confident, given the quality of what's being produced, that I'll find it.

    A bunch of them look really great, I held off early on but I wish I had snagged a few more while I could have.
    I've really been looking for stuff that looks very unique, like the Thundering Bolt Beast and the Scintillarrium.

    Went all-in on the Aug 2020 pack with the snorse of course! And I've really enjoyed some items out of the recent packs more than some of the older ones. Picked up the Fox of the Pyre and Flamefin Frigate from Sept 2020 and a lot from the Oct 2020 pack because I love Autumn.

    I do really wish that the costumes were not entire cosmetic appearances though. I'd love to mix and match with pieces, even if it was just helmets.

    Fire good, ice meh

    Wish the outfits came in pieces that could be changed around. I know some of them aren’t made for it, but there’s no reason a robe can’t be separate from the gloves, or from the hat. Lost potential there.

    too many.

    I find it funny. The players who tend to buy most of those things, at least post-launch. Are Roleplayers. But I fear the amount of Roleplay in the game will be lacking. There are no real in-game flags that help you pick the right server. Most games that have you find one via something like Reddit, never really have an RP scene when I check.

    I really hope to be proven wrong with this. But yea, the amount of cosmetics you can buy seems almost akin to f2p. And I'll purchase them only if I really like them. Or, of course for Roleplay.

    Now that I have invested in the snail boi. I keep looking at the skins every month. Hoping for something I like. I have not seen anything that has really caught my eye as a must have skin for my character. I am not really looking for a specific style. I know what I would want to wear when I see it.

    Worst case scenario I don't use a skin, which is fine. I actually looked at all of the past skins to see if I feel like I am really missing out on something special. I am happy to report that I just don't see anything that I want.
    That being said, they all look good. Just nothing that makes me have to have it.

    This is my personal feedback, shared to help the game thrive in its niche.

    I've loved the vast majority and as such have bought a large portion of them. I mainly do it because I found in games like Guild Wars 2 I could swap my outfits so I couldn't be targeted as easily.

    I've pretty much had the same, I've always preferred something simple. Nothing too flashy.

    I got the cosmetic I wanted. But now I just want them to put more incentives other than cosmetics into the shop for us to buy. Not really interested in any more other than a few pieces from new sets like the Frost Gauntlet.

    I like the skins and wonder how they will look combined togethere in the final game

    They all look great and most importantly, there is a great degree of designs. The variety of options really piqued my interest. I found out about AoC mid 2019, and just a few months later, after deciding on Empyrean, the Groves of Slumbering Shade released, so I got that set.

    Seeing the 3D renders of the Sootheroot Satchel and Servant of the Soil I was thoroughly impressed, but was a little let down by size of the Stag of the Boughs, as the artwork made it look like it would be on a grander scale than your standard Deer. Now, I'm most looking forward to seeing the Titanbark Mail.

    Would've bought the set containing the Protectors Armor had I known about AoC sooner.
