I’d like this if:
Permababies can’t wear skins, so this could be a cute alternative to that. Plus some of the unused baby art is really cute, and I think people would like being able to choose it if they wanted. :0 The permababy pose-change item could be a magic eggshell or something, maybe?
Although... not all babies have alternate art, so more artwork would have to be created, which would be a massive undertaking. Plus, if we got that, we might never get hatchling apparel, since the workload would double. :( It’s a cute idea if executed right, but I don’t know how feasible it is.
Absolutely no support if existing permababies suddenly have their art changed, though, or if it’s going to be locked into gender. I’d be incredibly upset if my permababies changed on me, or if I could never have another female permababy again because they suddenly changed the hatchling art for that gender 5.5+ years into the game. :/
- It was an item that could be applied to permababies (and only permababies, not regular hatchlings) to change their pose, meaning that the current hatchling art would still be the “default” for both permababies and nest hatches.
- Existing permababies are not affected— especially since the EY scroll costs Gems, it would be awful to change something that people spent real money (or hard-earned site currency) on. We already had a version of this with the eye update, which people are still upset about. Same with the CWE changes (RIP old Seafoam).
- It wasn’t gender-specific. Most dragons have little to no dimorphism, and hatchlings in particular wouldn’t be mature enough to develop those secondary characteristics anyway, so pose-changing a baby should just be an aesthetic thing. Some of the alternate art for babies- like Mirrors- is literally just “same baby in a different pose”, so locking it into male/female wouldn’t make sense.
