    Lmfao $300+?!

    What’s funny about this stuff, is Apex Legends developers more than likely gets paid to include this cross promotional material in their game, then they turn around and sell it to players. Really this is all just an ad, and if you pay for an ad you’re an idiot.

      The big price tag is part of the ad! That’s how you get mentioned and people speak about it.

      Some idiots will also buy it, so there’s that, too.

      I actually don’t care if a free to play game has cosmetics you can buy. They need to make some money some how. As long as you don’t get a real advantage by paying money.

      Whats funny about this is /people still play games with microtransactions at all/.
