It might be better to have groups of the same level item in each category purchased. For example 500 dna/5 kreds unlocks all the +1 items in the Misc. category. 1000/10 unlocks all +2 etc.

The reason is I don't think anyone's going to be buying extra items purely for looks until they're at the end of the upgrade path already. For example someone with a paper anklet isn't going to buy a barbie tat, they're going to at least buy a +1 in another category first, then upgrade all their gear to +2's and +3's. Only after they have the max dino-boosts will they spend their extra DNA or kreds just for looks.

I don't support this. The reason is that, simply put, if you are going for stats (like you said) you don't care about aesthetics anyway (just pick your one favorite) and it would lower the income that they could potentially receive.

Yes, I am awesome at dinowaurs, yes, I beat the Intuition staff at their own game on a laggy computer, yes, I have more forum posts than you at Kongregate, yes, I semi-personally know the developers after an interview, yes, I will overtake you in posts soon, but you are still worthwhile. I guess. Tongue
