Why are all the new Halloween 2015 character skins so lame?
Yeah, I fully agree. Not getting new characters is a bummer, but it'd be okay if the costumes had full tasks. Holiday Homer is awesome and made me laugh when I first saw it, but the task list is really depressing.

of course, there have been characters with minimal/incomplete task lists before.... many of whom only recently received new tasks to fill out their lists; so it's entirely possible that additional tasks will be added to these as well at some point...
Well that doesn't make sense.
I like Lisa skin but she has way too many 4h tasks. They could have alreast made the tasks little longer.
It makes sense perfectly. I'll explain:
Is there a single character in the game who has only visual, "outdoor" task for every time duration?
I can't think of one.
So what you're really asking for is a skin which provides more outdoor tasks than any other character.
The skin adds outdoor, visual tasks. WHAT POINT WOULD THERE BE ADDING INDOOR TASKS YOU DON'T SEE?
if you are assigning a character indoors for X hours, does it really matter what they are wearing if it has same payout?
The nut and squirrel are two of the funniest things I've seen in the game.
The pirate Kang and fairy Kodos are great too.
Holiday Homer story line was very amusing for a FREE skin.
And Bart for free was awesome too.
The other costumes are cute as well. I wished i could afford them.
You're just a hater. :roll:
That doesn't make any sense.
Why not just add the indoor tasks to the costumes? As premium skins, they should be able to earn at a premium rate for all tasks.
The only ones that come close are Duffman, Kang, and Kodos.
Uhh, no. Nobody said they want every task to be outdoors. Most skins have a few visual tasks, and the rest are indoors.
Now, that's the rub, isn't it? Most of the skins are PREMIUM, for freemium characters. So they don't have the same payout. If I'm paying 60-80 donuts for a premium skin, I expect a full set of tasks. That way I get the increased payout no matter what task length I want. That's kinda the usual deal for premium skins.
For Kang, Kodos, and Luann, it's no big deal. They do have the same payout, so you're just getting new visuals. However, even for those it would be more convenient to have a full task list so you don't have to constantly swap between skins, and it's nice to change up the buildings they go to. Honestly, for 80 donuts on a premium skin that doesn't add to payout, the LEAST they could do is give you a full task list.
They just keep walking around town and you'll have to set them to another costume if you want that character going on the same timed task.
also a big benefit of indoor tasks is the building animation. new indoor tasks could be used to give animations to unused buildings, or new task lengths for buildings that already have associated jobs/animations.
i try to have as many buildings animated as possible, and prefer longer task lengths. just one way new indoor tasks could be useful

That is another annoyance. What's the point of buying skins then if you're a tapper that uses the job manager? You're just going to shut the skin off and forget about it.
The lack of full task for the skins is just another example of what was wrong with this event. It wasn't as bad as some say, just disappointing and annoying. Halloween should be awesome but this one was just so.... meh.
Well said. ^^
