Skip Final Fantasy VII. Get over it.

If they want to appease me, they'll have to make a kit where you can make your own custom wardrobe and personal space items. This way, everyone could make whatever they want. At the very least, you should be able to modify what you have; for example, letting us take that default black tank top and turning it into a green tank top. I know Home is cheap as it is, but you're not getting anything noteworthy for the money you're spending.

dont think eny kit remotely similar to that may happen home is not second life lol if it were i would not have made this post and as for getting over it um i think no its also only game i have been playing right now since psn is down .. but i respect your opinion

When the Mansion first was opened for tours, several us on the tour said what the place really needed was a grand piano. The idea was then voiced in the HomeForum and got a good response. Bottom line, at least two developers immediately jumped into designing a piano for Home. In each instance, it took months from original concepts to finished products - and the two competing companies came out with those pianos within one week of each other. The point is, what sounds like an easy idea - one or two days on the drawing board, off to the artists, then to the programmers, set the price point and VOILA - new product a week later is so far off, the developers choke with frustration just hearing it. New items take months to create. And cost a LOT of money in salaries to everyone involved. What will people pay for a FF VII costume? $2.99? $29.99? $299.99? Obviously, the smallest amount. So how many of those costumes would have to be sold to recoup the cost of creating it? Thousands? Tens of thousands? Can you show that you AND tens of thousands of your friends would buy that costume for $2.99?

That's the biggest problem that developers face: what they do is not well known by their customers - how long does it take? how many people are involved? what profit margin does the company need to at least break even? how do you test it before releasing it for sale?

Each month I see hundreds of single requests for new 'costume' outfits from various comic books, movies, and games. The only one I have seen with any frequency is Bayonetta. And what if three different companies leap into making Bayonetta costumes and the market is diluted by all that competition?

We really need at least one of the developers to actually walk everyone through what is involved, step by step, in deciding which products to create, how the product is designed, how many people work on it, how is it produced and tested, and how long does this entire process take. Interview, anyone?

Those are some good points Keara.i certainly have no idea what actually goes on behind the scenes at developers and would be quite curious.I think it is important for companies to talk to "the man on the streets" every once in awhile though,i think there are many good ideas kicking around,i think 1 important job of developers is to hear what ppl want,look at it realistically talk,it over,"kick the tires" and talk to more ppl to get more opinions.Then if it's possible financially go for it,i understand that in talking to others they would need to be careful not to tip their competition so any discussions would need to be done with that in mind but 2-way dialogue between developers and customers can lead to some win-win situations,in my opinion.
