Sooo, why would you buy a skin? If...

[Koba]

Your favourite heroes can be banned in competitive and you cant even use your cosmetic?

You cant charge £17 ($22) per skin AND have limited access to those cosmetics, because others dont want to play against that hero...

Will pay ZERO to play this game while hero bans exist... Simply because people start to recognise your name, and ban your heroes even if they arent an s-tier pick... SO you get no money devs GJ.

I might even just try OW2 again.

spending money for entertainment is perfectly fine.

if people don't "play digital dress up" the company running the game closes down and you don't get to play for free and sit on that high elitist horse anymore, maybe think on that and use some critical thinking skills before insulting people you rely on for keeping your game free.

The typical "it's free" excuse. lol

Your logic is flawed, because I'm not the one trying to make a profit. If the game wasn't free, barely anybody would be playing it in the first place. You aren't keeping anything alive.

How about making a good game before releasing it? That way you don't have to release it for free which is just a new disguise for Early Access.

The game doesn't even have a tutorial for every Hero, yet they expect people to dish out 20 bucks for a lazy reskin my little cousin could've done in photoshop/unreal engine in less than a hour.

[Rayman.]

then you just play other heroes you like and mastered. Not a big issue

[Akasha]

How do you only have one favorite hero, that you demand to play...you are that guy that quick picks and flops through the match because you are a one trick. Tell you what, wait till your character gets nerfed and power crept by newer heroes and when your character falls out of meta you'll never have to worry about it again.

Idk but the funniest thing to do in this game is to make fun of people for buying skins, especially if they get mvp. Hit them with a "lmao this guy paid for a skin" and they get so triggered

no ones saying pay anything you feel is over priced, but the battle pass is very fairly priced with high quality skins for several characters and even if you don't play all of them you get back most of the currency you paid

so $5 to support the game you play is more than reasonable for what would be minimum 20+

again f2p is fine but don't then go around trashing paying players because without them you don't have a game to play for free. Especially when its purely cosmetic purchases because then there's zero hint of p2w either

I don't care if you want to waste your money on useless cosmetics.

You pretended like the game is depenedent on your purchases when it isn't. The game is only successful because it's F2P in the first place. Nobody would shell out money for this unbalanaced and unfinished game. So keep spending your money on cosmetics and not investing it into actual gameplay features and updates.

But for the love of god and again stop spreading this bs narrative as if you are keeping this game alive. YOU AREN'T.

skins are only $22 ??? in valorant skins are $50 and more .. lol and thats a weapon skin not a character model skin..

And regardless of skins, you'll need to pick at least 3-4 characters to be successful in ranked - especially since you're talking hero bans, so dia+.

Absolutely this. So many people just only get good with one character, then get mad when they get hard countered or someone insta locks "their character" and then proceeds to go 3-15 on it. Also IF they flex to another role... They are useless to the team because they have no idea how to perform in the role.

I flex all the time and I have played with a lot of different characters and roles. I feel so much better at the game than most of the average players in the community.

[StoneFrog24]

Okay so just to you know, I have many skins in many video games and even one character is getting banned when I have like more than 1 skins with that same character, I'll just play another character with who I have more than 1 skins on him.

I've been playing games where characters can be ban in ranked match cause it's just normal to ban a couple of characters so that the other team wouldn't be able to make a deadly team composition or if the character is just way too much of a meta pick or if someone wants to have a character but that he could get counter then you have to ban the character that the other team could have picked.

Even after each team can ban a certain number of characters in a ranked match in a game, when that game will have more than a 60 to 100 characters in it, there wont be enough characters ban to be honest with you if both teams could just ban for exemple 5 characters on both sides.

No the model changes back to buy the game and unlock stuff but you know some people have no brains, and enjoy playing digital dress up with digital dolls.
Love the projection too very funny 10/10
I'm glad my brain isn't trained to find buying skins that do nothing at all to add to the game entertaining.

[Cat Ears Enjoyer]

Try to play more than one character
