Interesting Turn of Events

@Lord_Scorpion34 Saved me some money since I was supposed to buy an heirloom this anniversary. Skins in an FPS should not cost that much since all you see are your gloves unlike heirlooms. I doubt that people will boycott apex though since there’s no real replacement yet for Apex. I think there’s this line where the skins are worth their price depending on how they look and what additional cosmetics that come with it etc. This BH mythic skin just gives you 2 meh skins and 1 good skin with a finisher. 

Respawn should have added these things to at least make the $160 skin “worth it”

- New animation in legend select screen like the SFTO skins.

- New banner animation like the heirlooms

- New quips like the heirlooms

- The skin should have been a reactive skin where it changes mid-game. 

But nope it’s just 3 pairs of gloves and 1 cool finisher. According to Respawn no one uses finishers that’s why they don’t new finishers in the game anymore. I think from now on they’ll try to do 2 collection events per season. 1 being a mythic skin and another for the usual heirloom. They’re slowly making these Thematic events look like collection events recently.

@Cheese9ManAnd then it'd still be worth max 3 bucks. It's skins... in a video game.

@Lord_Scorpion34 It's all just hype.  Nobody is boycotting anything.  It's like these low quality apex posts you see on various Facebook groups "APEX players DEMAND x" - no we don't. 

Simple. If you don't like it or think it's overpriced don't buy it.  Not sure why this is difficult to grasp.

Well I can only speak for myself.

I'm refusing to play for at least a few weeks as the new season brought about some unseen change that's greatly affected my movement in game.

As for a 160$ skin, i'm sorry what? That's literally weeks worth of gas for me, or groceries for a couple weeks.

I learned my lesson in TF2 and that was just buying 2.50$ keys.

Skins are cool and all, but that's a fairly outrageous price when the game itself isn't getting the quality of life updates it needs.

Or at least some consistency, regardless of how I feel about this season. It always seems like there's a weapon or character benched due to some kind of broken mechanic.

As fun as this game is, its hard to stay interested when day to day the game can feel entirely different. 

And instead of focusing on maintaining consistency, they are consistently putting out the ridiculous money grab events that push kids to steal their parents credit cards.

Best of luck to you all.

I dont really care, it's just a skin.

@Cheese9ManIt's def outrageous & bold of them to even suggest this! Like I'd love to see how they come up with 💩 like this in their meetings. I hate that I've paid as much as I have 8n the past but I'm never buying an heirloom & def not this skin. Trying to decide if I want to not make any purchases other than the Battle pass this season. Cuz They're getting ridiculous with their store & this skin. There's no reason blue items should be in the store available for purchase! I'm not spending 💰 on blue items! I can understand putting stuff like banners or dives in there maybe but blue items!? They appear to be getting a little too greedy.
