Only Fortnite is priced worse with skins sometimes priced at nearly $40.
But Apex has done this. I mean, not only are some character skins basically $18, some weapon skins are priced exactly the same. That's just far, far too much. Freemium game...this is not something I can ever imagine paying for at this price range.
The only deal worth paying for in Apex Legends is the battle pass. It's a shame, because the skins are nice, but there is no way ever I will pay $18, or $15, or $12, or $10 for skins like these. Try more like $5. And if that' too little, seriously don't make them.
Or since some people will pay anything, maybe they should raise the price. Maybe like to $1800 per skin, while we're just charging anything at all. :P
I have the money, make no mistake. But one reason I have my money is because I spend it on things that are worth it. $18 for a skin for a game I'm wondering will be able to create more content enough to keep me playing is certainly not happening. And don't tell me that they 'need' this money....if you can't basically charge players $10 every few months on your video game and stay afloat, then your business model need to be re-evaluated.
$18 for any skin is far, far overpriced.
@KelRiever We don't pay $10 on every battle pass, we only pay once then level up to 100 then get free next battle pass so they only get $10 revenue ONCE in a lifetime !

True, unless you decide to spend those apex coins on something else like event exclusives but even then might not use them all. I mean come on, don't you think the battle pass should account for some sort of season pass like free access to events or something? They shouldn't have to charge so much money
- 6 years ago@GreedLinguine A regular game fresh out the gate can cost 60 bucks and can still hold microtransactions... 18 bucks is steep, but I’ve seen worse and ppl buy it so there’s a market for it.
I think they can run their business however they want. Some ppl will buy and others wont. I can guarantee that even if price per skin would be 5/10 ppl would still complain or say it’s unfair. A lot less than now, but still some.
Heck even you say you think only the BP should cost money and rest should be free or a lot less expensive.
@KelRiever, so you have money eh?

If they did drop the skins to say $9 each....surely more than double the amount of people who currently purchasing skins would be inclined to spend more....as it's much more affordable for many.
It's a shame they'll never do this as a test run as I'd love to see the figures.
- 6 years ago@GreedLinguine Free access to events? Now that sounds like asking for too much buddy.
They should make the skins cheaper and sell the heirloom for a fixed price and take out the bloody gambling packs.
Now if I remember correctly, bloodhound axe was priced at $35 during that whole iron crown fiasco, after unlocking every other event skins ofc xD- 6 years ago
Why would free access to at least a part of an event be asking too much? I get that the heirloom costs money bc of how rare it is but making that whole lost Treasures thing cost money so you can't get any skins doesn't make sense to me. And yea, they should keep the prices fixed

@asukojo Please, that's such a lie and total theory to any but a minority of players.
More people spend their Apex coins then save them from season to season, which is why Apex does it, which is why Fortnite does it...they don't do it because they are running a charity. Like their super expensive skins, enough people are too stupid to stop themselves from spending it, and then coughing up $10 each season. Don't fool yourself.
