Sure. That's a given. People can just never invest money into the game if they don't want to.
However, my desire is to have a nice experience when purchasing things in the store. It should feel painful to get a cool skin you've wanted because you know in your mind that $20 for a single virtual skin is overpriced.
I understand they're trying to build scarcity with their product so it seems like it has higher value, but overall in the long wrong it's a blatant rip off. No game should require a single player dumping $500+ into it for virtual cosmetics.
And yes I agree the weapon and character skins are too overpriced with the 1800 apex coins aka €18/$18. I don't understand the price. If it was €1 or €0,79 like in the old days of skins-dlc that I (and I think a lot of people) even may think about buying some of that things in the store. But now I think someone really needs help if they buy a skin for €18. :')

That's the tragedy and internal struggle I'm having with the current situation. I want the game to prosper and see more development, but I don't want to support a business model that I sincerely despise. With 25 million players taking attention to Apex there's really no need for EA to be overly greedy in their business model (which they have god a bad rep for) and not give reasonable priced content.
We can only hope they give some love to those who purchased the founders pack and some coins in the beginning stage later on so their initial investment feels worth it. As mentioned if they gave an extremely good deal for $100 I would pick it up today, but all the reviews of people wasting the $100 now have been highly disappointed and don't recommend people wasting their money.
I would there is some community manager or someone directly connected with the community that could actually pass this feedback on. I WANT TO GIVE YOU MY MONEY, but it has actually FEEL WORTH IT.- 7 years agoYea, the pricing is madness IMO, I played the game and really enjoyed myself so I thought I'd drop some money on it to show my support, but when I went to the store and saw what I could get I just laughed and said F that. Coming from a time where $60 would get you a single player campaign, multiplayer and a ton of cosmetic stuff (even if it has to be unlocked) to $60 getting 3 skins and change (on top of the very good but still simple multiplayer) is mind boggling to me.
I'll be waiting to see if the battlepass is reasonable because I do want to support the game but for now it feels like they don't want my money...- 7 years ago
I've happily spent hundred+ dollars on League of Legends, will I spend same amount on this game?
Unlikely, RNG lootbox and ridiculous pricing is a major turn off, 20$ for a generic skin you can't even choose it yourself?
No thank you.
