What is not right about it? If that is the best pricing strategy for Respawn to make the most money, well it's perfect! That's business 101! I have hundreds invested in skins now. I do agree that it's expensive compared to other titles but nobody forced me to spend my money, yet I did. If the cost is too high for you then don't buy it. Why you expect them to lower the price because you think its expensive is baffling to me. Pay for it if you like it and think it's worth it. Don't buy it if you don't think it's worth it. If the free market agrees with you the price will drop, if they don't, well expect to pay what there asking. Not knocking your opinion, I actually agree its a very expensive game to hold a lot of skins. But I don't blame Respawn for baking in a system that allows them profit. Would I rather pay $69 and get it all, yes, but that's not their business model. Do you complain when paying for gas? How about when you go to a store and by some cloths? Do you tell them on their forums how to price their jeans? Nope, you buy them or you buy the competitions. Free market my man, this is not unique to Apex.

You're literally just paying for the luxury of not having to grind your way to a skin.
There is no impact on gameplay so if they want to charge that much for skins leave them to it, just as i say the same about any player willing to pay for them lol

I don't care how much they charge for fluff, I don't buy fluff. I did support the game so far buying the first BP but I could have been fine being a totally F2P player. As it goes as long as you finish the BP each season you will never need to buy it again so that is right up my alley.
I plan on supporting the game more when netcode is improved and cheating becomes less noticeable also by the way. I prefer good gameplay over cosmetics and thus any money I throw at a game is due to the gameplay.
I get that people like to dress up their legends and weapons but i don;t feel sorry for the price they have to pay to do it.- 6 years ago
They probably know better than me but from where I'm sitting I think they'd make a lot more money if they charged a lot less for the skins in the shop.
