Dear Insane Children,
During our recent Crowd Design discussions over on Discord we’ve stumbled on a sticky question with regards to dresses. So we’ve decided to put the question to a poll and see which option wins based on votes. Here’s the deal…
How do we want the collection of and use of dresses to work in Alice: Asylum?
Option 1: Alice: Madness Returns Style. That means dresses are linked to domains and only accessible as a function of the linear narrative and presence in those domains. In other words, The Denial Dress is only seen/worn in the Denial Stage of the game. But once you’ve completed the entire game you unlock the complete wardrobe of dresses and can choose to wear any dress in any location.
Option 2: Gangnam Style. You unlock dresses as you move through the game and can select and wear any dress at any time in any location. That means you could unlock the Denial Dress and then select it later in the game at any stage (including taking a dress from later in the game back to an earlier stage).
So… which of these do you prefer?
