Just thought ti would be a nice addition

yes, now that I think of it, it is odd that there are no mirrors there.

From a practical standpoint, there should be mirrors in the place, though those could be in the changing rooms out back. It's not like Icon does anything off-the-peg.

From a usage standpoint, there's no point in having them. You can just swivel the camera.

From a technical standpoint, it's cute, but the amount of technology you would need to put in to achieve this could probably delay half the content in the game.

So, nice idea, but no thanks.

But you can rotate your camera? Forgive my bluntness, but this sounds like a suggestion for its own sake.

As an alternative I like the suggestion Mantodea had a while back: a feature allowing you to make any changes you wanted to a costume and pay when you leave Icon - in other words you get run around in Icon 'trying out a new costume' like you would a pair of shoes IRL to see if your costume has clipping issues before shelling out inf/tokens.

Plus you'd get the opportunity to ask, "Does my bum look big in this?"

Again a good idea, seen some of your costumes a mirror would come in handy for you Shard...oops sorry Tuarus

Run a renderer throw a couple of mirrors in it and see if you can't stall your rig, then reconsider your suggestion

Very little practical use, but I think it'd be a nice little touch.
