@apostolateofDOOM  It's not that i disagree or anything. I do find them overpriced.

So i simply don't buy them, really enjoying the free game mode they gave us more than a skin i can't see 90% of the time.

 

The iron crown event as we all know was utter BS. At least they haven't pulled that stunt again.

@Kaira-UK- A legendary skin should be rare. If it would cost 5-10$, probably everyone would buy it and it would become too common. Also there would be much less interest to unlock or buy common rare and epic stuff.

@DoYaSeeMe That's not a good enough excuse, if it's cheaper yes more people would buy it which is good because that means more money for Respawn, just because you wouldnt feel like a snowflake is a terrible excuse, people have no interest in the common, rare and epic items at the moment what would change?

@Kaira-UK-It's never as simple as that. Let's say that from a 20$ skin, 15$ are profit. If you sell that skin for 10$, the profit becomes 3 times smaller, so you need 3 times as many buyers. In reality, the price drop may increase sales only by 20% instead of 200%. On top of this, if you consider the fact that all products need to get a discount after a while, when they aren't trendy anymore, or if they don't meet the expectations, things get more complicated.

Then, consider how volatile the games market is. A game may have excellent cosmetics for excellent prices, but at any moment another one can come and steal like 50% of the playerbase together with their spendings.

@DoYaSeeMe your aguement is null and void with the fact this skin is a 2 week exclusive item, after that they wont make ANY money from it period.

@Kaira-UK- Maybe this skin will reappear in another event, or in the same event next year, like Overwatch does. Anyway, if it would become unavailable forever after the event, that would make a pretty good reason for the high price.

My input on the new updates,

  • So far I like the wraith's lab, it's like a sequel to the classic bunker,
  • Love the wraith animu,
  • Legendary skin improvement is awesome (better looking skin and new animation in legend select screen), more of this bonus like toggle button for helmet open / close, different champion gesture , etc.
  • The voidwalker wraith banner is too expensive.
  • Event reward is worse than iron crown because you have a chance to get legendary in iron crown event, but at least the music pack that I want (wraith) isn't locked in a $7 loot box like pathfinder's music pack.
  • nice new additions to the stock skin.
  • Nice improvement on the quality of life but bad execution, auto sprint but there's no option to assign button to walk (I have to use cfg to assign walk to a button)
  • armed and dangerous mode is dog shi1t.
  • EDIT: oh almost forgot, the audio is dog shi1t too, it's worse than before, barely can't hear people approaching from behind, very inconsistent.

True BUT when and if the game shuts down that item is gone, forever and who knows how many skins you decided to buy at $20 a pop if im honest I'd have rather paid a base retail price and had a expansions of sorts or skin at $2-$3, I'm all for supporting but this is just daylight robbery.

Ya if the game shut down, say goodbye to your heirloom, no more deeebs. But it won't be that soon, unless something else that''s equally good and unique comes out.

@EA_Atic Awesome game mode people cry over dumb stuff like prices. Ignore them they were handed everything to me so they think they deserve everything. The only think that would be cool is if you keep the game modes in and not take them away just to gives us options and not the same game mode ever time later

why are you even arguing, 20€ for a hero skin in a fps is ridiculous since you don't even see it ><
