Battle pass worth season 6 in comparison to other seasons (graph)

Hello fellow legends

I've made a new battle pass worth graph with the data of season 6 included!

Seems like we are getting a bit more value than last season!

Cheers,

    Weapon skins in S6 is really mediocre at best. Even my kid can do better than that.

  • What is this based on?

    I can only assume because the Holosprays are epics and there is less music, etc.?

    I guess value is subjective, but to me Season 2 is easily the best.  There was so much new in that pass...loading screens, music, sky dive emotes, and the character skins were excellent.  I still have Bangalore and Caustic's skin from that pass equipped.

    After that Season 3.  Good skins, good music and loading screens, great sky dive emotes, and charms were new.

    Season 6 for me probably falls in line here at 3rd.  The Holosprays are the first new addition since Season 3.  The overall theme creates better banners and loading screens.  The Bloodhound skin is one of the best I've seen in a season pass.  Other skins are good too.  Overall, the best pass since Season 3.

  • @DYSPROssiumIts quantity but not quality. I feel personally that the S6 Battlepass is pretty good, i especially love the Bloodhound skin as its seems ro be based on one of my favorite movie franchises, Mad Max.

    But before anyone starts crying, not every battle pass will suit everyone. I really loved the S2, and i would make a case that its Caustic skin, Prince of Darkness is the best skin in the game by a long shot. Does that mean anything to those who don't like him? Likely not. I woild also not have bothered with the S4 pass if it wasn't for the Wattson skin along with the metals.

    Many players act like spoilt children upon finding out that the battlepass does not include 100 Legendaries and a bodypillow for their mains, completely forgetting there are 15 Legends in the game. Does not stop them to make complete fools out of themselves by crying about how the game is dead.

    I would argue that "value" for something like this, is a bit subjective.

    Yes, you can run the raw numbers and say "This pass is giving you more/less items than last season". But, that alone does not determine value to a player.

    For example, you could get 100 items, but if you only like 10 of them, that isn't much value to you. Alternatively, you could get 50 items but if you like every single one, that's much more value to you.

    So, Why I think it's cool that you did this little raw number graph and it's nice to see that stuff in black and white, I will say that I feel that alone doesn't determine the value of a battle pass. That really depends on the individual and how much that they will get out of it/How much of said pass they actually want or like.

    I hope that makes sense.

    **Edit**

    for the record, I do want to say that my comment comes from someone who really does like a lot of the things in this battle pass. All in all, I feel that it is a better value for me than season 5. because, outside of a few key things like the Loba emote, there wasn't really a lot that I liked. However, there's a lot I like this season.

    All that being said, it's possible that season 7 could give us even more in terms of quantity than season 6 for the battle pass. But, if I only like a handful of things, I would feel that it's a less value for me personally than this season.

    Again, I hope that all made sense
