Eververse Cosmetic prices are ridiculous! Give me a reason to give you money!

Let's talk about price for a moment. I hate to help a company sell microtransactions better, but hear me out: If your prices are high enough that it's not even reasonable to consider them -at all- then I will never buy a cosmetic. $7 for a skin for a single armor or weapon? That is a whole, high quality indie game! $21 for a pack of 3 finishers? That's half an expansion pack or a AAA game from a year or two ago on sale! Once you've cracked my wallet open I'm likely to spend more, but if your prices are so ridiculous that I'm not going to consider it then you don't get a dime. Wouldn't 300 people out of 1,000 players buying a few items at $3 a piece be better than 50 whales out of 1,000 players buying everything? Especially when the whales buy everything either way? I just can't believe anyone looks at an animation or skin and says, "Yeah, people will be happy to pay $7-$8 for just that!". There's some cool stuff here, but as someone who works for a living I can't justify using the store for anything but bright dust. Not when I could cook a meal for the cost of a single cosmetic. On a more positive note, season pass is pretty good, feels like a decently rewarding content track for the money, even if the mossy season armor is of...questionable aesthetic taste.

  • In mobile games they call them whales. Bungie is selling a base product for the lemming masses and then focusing on people with Deep Pockets and Big Spenders that will pay these ridiculous prices for minimal effort. It's not about making a good game and improving it, it's about producing enough addictive gameplay to try to hook as many big ones as possible so they can maximize their profit. They are creating a cycle of addiction instead of a video game at this point and they know exactly what they're doing. So much for post Activision Bungie
