I feel like VP is failing to stay afloat with its population because in this dying age, unless ur actually spending money to get credits ur kinda stuck without a means to get items from more popular designers...but that begs the question of why someone would even feel any appeal to spend money on a game that feels like it has so little to offer. Its unfortunate but the truth is that nobody wants to spend much of their hard earned money on a game that might cease to exist in a year from now. Even participating in dress-up comps would be hard for newer players although its a more free-to-play way of getting new sets.

- What improvements would speak out to new players joining VP? Advertising is one thing, but actually getting players hooked to join is another

I also think lack of outright customization and means to gain money is a big issue, right now in terms of getting people to stay

A new player has no real reliable way to get even a little bit of credits. if someone new joined today, when the sales in mp are super slow and they don't have an extensive wardrobe for comps, how would they make cr to feel like they can get to the nicer items?

On top of that, if they are coming from one of VP's direct competitors where there are 1000's of items available for the main easier to get currency and with options...would they want to stay when the shop they can actually shop in doesn't have as much options?

We don't need to offer as much items as the competitors but we do need to focus on how fun/easy it is for new people to play and customize

this this this

I only have 98% of my wardrobe because I bought credits. I still can't believe how infrequent the shopdrops are on here, and how little there is when we do get one. Prioritising sets for all the other features (for what, rarity/high value selling?) is beyond frustrating

Side bar, if there are any designers willing to have a chat, please dm me, cause I am genuinely curious how VP goes about the whole designing process!

I am simply not active enough to justify spending the money.. sadly most of the people i used to chat with are inactive, with no real hunt for new items or updates i fell out of the habit of hanging out here. It's sad but it really is the truth

With competitors having more options for custom looks and designs, i feel like VP sometimes lacks that little "extra" thing for me to bother spending my money on it, even though i used to!
