I like the masks and the cig. Nice update

But for real, why that choice?

I have 2 theories:

A. Testing out how it works life, then deciding to make certain accessoires f2p. (Perhaps refunding the ones that got locked behind donator).

B. Making people want to use assessoires so they wan't them so much that they're going to buy membership for it. (A not uncommon method used in the free market). I assume without refunding donator locked items then

or

C. Something which I havent thought of it.

This is not supposed to be a complaint, a "attack" or a "Booooooooooooooooooooooooooh" post, but a more like:
Why this? Here are my theories.

It is not donator-only, btw. Check in-game.

It will be in a while.

The reason the change will occur is so initially everyone can use accessories that the community has wanted for so long without paying real money, also allows us to test and root out the bugs easier if its mass used. We also wanted to release it without membership initially as a thank you for your patience.

Now the reason that it will be donator is, cosmetics are the best way and fair way to do this. People have wanted more membership benefits for a long time, and without making it an unfair advantage to others, cosmetics allow that. 

Now, how the details of the way of doing it are still discussed, as the switch to membership will not happen anytime soon.

Dev pay has been, on average, double our income for the past couple months. This is excluding server costs. Paid features that have no affect on game balance are, I think, a reasonable solution to this problem. Doesn't mean all accessories will go membership-only, nor that we won't be adding future accessories for free in the future either. All depends on how successful we are in funding development & servers sufficiently.

But great job. Definitely a nice update.
Like others already said, this will surely create diversity of characters to play as.

I never said that they are donator only atm? So I don't understand why you wrote that. Anyway. This thread is not for discussing that.

Again, thank you so-so much for this update! 

It has given me the ability to roleplay my different characters with clear differences in their appearance.
The update isn't perfect, but I'm already super pleased with it! It has given me that little boost I needed to play.

I have very high expectations now.. Better be some pink gloves soon... *wiggles fist angrily*

I know you did not say that. I wanted to simply emphasize the fact that it is.
Sorry for the misunderstanding.
