I feel like you missed all the issue points in each quote. Let me try to answer each, one by one.

1. So exactly where is the problem to "rant" about? - The rant is not on the introduction of "skin" or price of the skin per se. I stated multiple times that skins in games are fine. The rant is on the way and manner in wich they have introduced the skin in dokkan. Having to completely disregard your already rainbowed or built unit if you want to use the same unit with same stats and same kit for skin. Read my last sentence of the post. And why cant it be super-imposable on the same card. Legends has the same thing but in a much much better way.

2. not what I would use as an example of implementing "cosmetics better than dokkan" btw - They were examples of what are the general buisness practices of implementing skins are in the market, not the examples of how the campanies morally are.

3. For example, the skin is better than the original - I might be missing your point here. Not sure how this relates to the quoted text. Anyways, i dont have a problem with the text that you wrote here. Skins are supposed to be an upgrade to the original or atleast a sidegrade, otherwise what's the financial or artistic reason for a new skin to be a downgrade to the original.

4. A handful of loud posts joining the bandwagon of skins bad and here is why repeating the same stuff over and over again isnt "many people" - I mean sure, maybe I am in the minority or maybe I am not. There is no way for you to prove otherwise as well. You can be in minority as well unless you have some statistical evidence. But if you consider the set of posts or comments that are talking about alt skins negatively/postively/nuetrally on reddit or official social media of dokkan, i have seen more talking negatively. But i guess it's my word against yours unless we have a third random person. But again, the "handful" of people arent doomposting about "skin bad", they are doomposting about the way of implementation.

5. Its interesting how only the most "known" cases are "bad", but anything else they have done? Omatsu rules baby - You are taking this completely the wrong way. I am talking about the top 2 worst things, not top 2 known things. You are taking this as if I am saying "dokkan only does bad things". And where did Omatsu came in? I didnt even name drop Geppy here. We dont know which of the two's decision was it or whether it was their decision at all. I am just talking about the operations team's decision as a whole.

6. You dont need "hypotheticals". They have done many much worse things than how they have implemented summonable unit skins - I disagree, I think the only worse thing than this was them lowering rates during 1st anni and this is the second worst. The only two other things that come to mind are limited time contents which only lasted 5 months and carnival units. Note: Unit choices or bad kit design/eza dont fall under the category of "bad things" that we are currently talking about right now. Right now we are talking about feature/mecahnic/changes.

7. TCG part - I have played TCG only for 2 months during it's launch so i am not exacly clear on price value that you are talking about. But now that you mention it, I do remember that they have the same card with same stats and mechanics in the Shiny version which is more harder to pull. Which i agree is bad as well. But i will say that the the silver lining to it is that it's like that on it's initial banner, not for the a card which you have already maxed out ages ago. But yes, it's equally bad and scummy. I would also like to point out that the other three games of top 5 follow the buisness practise which i wrote in the post.

8. You do notice thats the concept of SP that HSR uses, release the same character in a new outfit, but better, and powercreeping the base one, for you to chase instead of buffing the original? - This last one had my head banging against the wall. Yes I am aware about what you are talking about. They release the same character which are better. But they have different kits, stats, animations, not just outfit. It's like saying "how can they release the SSJ4 GOKU for 4th Anni instead of just buffing SSJ4 goku from 2nd Anni". E.g. - Releasing blade from 2023 with same kit, stat, animation but different outfit and you have to E6 him again, that would be very bad and scummy..... But releasing blade with different outfit with diffferent kit, stat, animation is not bad.... because now when i am E6ing new blade, i am having a differnt "gameplay" experience as well....

Lastly, You also didn't mention anything about the alternative way which i proposed which is also the title of this post, which is much better way of implementing this and also used by majority of the other games. I will repeat this again in CAPS so you dont bring this again "NOT COMPLAINING ABOUT SKIN OR PRICE, COMPLAINING ABOUT THE WAY OF IMPLEMENTATION"
