Mustard top with purple pants isn't exactly the pinnacle of high fashion.

We can set our character's instrument, so why not a 'favorite color' - a color that applies to their outfit - to keep their ensemble consistent?

Dyes could then be used to change that, or to 'force' a certain item into a certain color.

All me yes! Although, I'd like to be able to pick two colors, since I'm a huge fan of white and gold. =)

Dark/ocean blue, but the color mainly would depend on the chars I play. ^^

Favorite Color is a great idea. That, or a good way to get dyes. With how quick you cycle gear, you're really quickly gonna mind up weirdly matched and one or two random dyes on some vendors isn't gonna stop you from looking colorblind.

Dyes being inconsequential gameplay wise for their pure aesthetic role could be made always available at some merchants, maybe even craftable. A system of multiple colours to be used on the same piece would hit the spot.


Unless otherwise specified, just an opinion or simple curiosity.

Surely not, I'm allergic! At least a little bit frown

At least to four legged ones, two legged is a different story. oops


Even in DOS1 were dies, but I think they never worked? That was kind of sad frown

The dyes in DOS1 worked, but only on certain things. Usually robes n' such. Also, they dyed a specific part, which you couldn't choose. =(

It would be really great if they had something like in Pillars of Eternity where it was possible to select a prefered primary and secondary colour for each of your characters.

I also tend to prefer the monochrome look, although I've recently been recolouring all my FO4 outfits pink-and-white thanks to the questionable influence of a friend. The vault suit actually looks quite fetching in bright pink with white stilettos. Obviously when I say "quite fetching" I mean "absolutely ludicrous", but y'know.

I did spot some dyes for sale occasionally but was always too broke to try them out. They were a constant irritation in D:OS though, there were never enough that were the same colour but I often ended up with rather bizarre and vulgar-looking outfits if I didn't make some effort to dye them.


J'aime le fromage.

Purple /silver and black /gold master race, reporting in.
Didn't have too many issues with dyes in OS1, but having a dedicated dye trader somewhere this time would be really nice.

id like that. right now many of the armors have colours that are rather striking and dont match up with each other very well.

Colour dyeing would be cool, Fable 2 did the same thing.

I'd like more control over colors overall, especially in character creation. I was so let down that you couldn't change something like eye color, tattoo/scars or stuff like that.

Don't care about gear, what I want to apply dyes to are my spells!
Pink fireballs all the way! laugh
