Stop the bundles

Stop artificially inflating the skin prices by adding apex packs.

I'm kind of flabbergasted that you basically cannot buy anything in the shop right now for under $25. I'm not buying anything. There's a couple things I would like but I'm not paying $25 for a skin. $18 was already a bit too much, and the highest I'm willing to go. I like that there -are- bundles, they are a good way to go for people trying to get shards. But they should not be the only option.

Why is there not an option to just buy the skins? On Fortnite, they have bundles, but they also have all the items separately. They give you a better deal if you buy the bundle, but at least you get an option.

lol I still buy skins on Fortnite, even tho I don't play it that often.

@swift07 Respawn used to exclusively sell old skins with bundles and they were called out for it.

With that backlash, they started selling just the skins with an option if you want bundles.

Now they’re back at it again with these bundles maybe hoping people wouldn’t notice. The only collection event skins in the store that you can buy ala carte are the old unpopular ones.

The new Ash and Seer skins are not thematic event skins so who knows if they’ll be even included in the regular loot pool afterwards where you can buy them with crafting metals.

Don’t buy an Ash skin now as Ash will be the level 25/50 skin for the next battlepass along with Revenant.

@Cheese9Man that just makes them look bad. Apex generates a lot of revenue already and I’m sure there’s other ways to sell more items.
