$20 for 3 Emotes, Shaders, and Class items

Someone please tell me I read the weekly update incorrectly. Please tell me that Activision/ Bungie are not charging an additional $20 just for 3 emotes, 3 shaders, and 3 class items. That's insane. Did I read it wrong? Edit: please feel free to disagree with me. Personally $20 is too much for cosmetic items in my opinion. Others will not share that opinion. That's okay. I was thinking it would equate to $5. But I guess I am just cheap. Edit 2: there are some really angry people on this forum. Well, we can disagree. I stand by my opinion and the value of money compared to the lack of content/value for $20. I'm not going to bother reading any more. Have a good night and please don't spend too much time arguing. Remember it's just a game...

    • $20 for useless items. Just imagine the kind of content you'll get for $40 from the new expansion...

      • Then don't buy them? Is this beaten-to-death topic really worthy of [i]another[/i] pointless thread? Why not comment in any of the other 30 of these? Do you think you're bringing something new to the table with this drivel? Fu[i]c[/i]k, man. Entitled megalomaniacs. They're everywhere today.

          ...if they truly care about their customers, they could've given out those for free to everyone who'e played since 2014 (for example), selling a SHADER, EMBLEM and an EMOTE (x3) for $20 is downright robbery and nothing but pure greed

          Well, I see where you are coming from but the 3 class items are not just cosmetic. They will actually affect game play. How ever small the Xp bonus may be it will still have an impact on the game.

            • Lesser things are purchased in the Gem store on Guild Wars 2 on a regular basis by many players. I think I've spent close to $500 on gold, vanity items and gems just because... At least you can get the expansion by itself now.

            • Yeah, definitely not worth $20, but they know that people will blindly buy up everything they throw at us so they continue to exploit that, ttk and the CE content cost almost as much as a full game, I'm going to take that money and actually buy another game, just don't see ttk being worth it.

              • Then don't buy the additional content! No one is forcing you to buy anything more than the DLC. Which is all I will be buying.

                It works out almost perfect content wise. Previous DLC = $20 Emotes, shaders, class items = $20

                • This is much better and less insane than spending $80 for the collector's edition when you already have both the expansions and the base game. Plus, when you break it apart, the legendary edition is $60 for the base game, the first 2 expansions, and the Taken King. The Collector's edition is $80 for all of that plus those cosmetic items--that is, if you purchase the digital version. In other words, technically, those cosmetics are of a $20 value.

                • They are taking you (us) for idiots ... And you are asking for more. Gamers seams to be the best clients ever. The product is crap, they are selling you 3 shaders for 20$ (the price don't matter) Seriously ?!?

                • Regarding to 50% of the community 20$ are nothing and they are willing to throw their money at the screen. If you ask me, these people are idiots and you will see: microtransactions are coming.
