    You can buy Baldur’s Gate 3 for less than 70 usd. So, why on earth are they charging 70 usd for a skin? This is unacceptable even if the game is free to play.

    Valorant has skins that can only be acquired in their $80+ bundles too. Following the valorant trend, they know some people will keep paying, no matter the price.

    No cosmetic items should cost more than £10/$20 imho £50/$70 is a full game for crying out loud.

      Besides buying out all the DRG cosmetic packs because I’m a whore for coffee stain and ghost ship, the best DLC cosmetic I’ve ever bought is the dumb piglet Saltzpyre wears on his head in Vermintide 2. It’s got a little wiggly butt and floppy Lil legs and it’s adorable. Best $5 I’ve ever spent.

    Nothing inside a video game should cost real money.

    The difference between this abusive horseshit and any cheaper example is quantitative - not qualitative.
