buy skin

skin gets removed

money stollen

Let's be honest, it was stolen as soon as you got tricked into paying real money for how you look in a video game.

Games make you value arbitrary nonsense. That is what makes them... games. There is no ethical form of taking real money inside a video game.

Does that mean this game about WARFARE doesn't have working camouflage?

This game about WARFARE doesn't have bombers vaporizing everyone with fuel-air bombs from 2 miles away??? Are the devs making the game less realistic just so that it's more fun to play or something?????

This isn't newsworthy.

It's literally a pay to win skin due to it's low visibility, slim hitbox, and the fact that the package it's part of has to be purchased.

If you are against pay to win this pull is a win, all be it an extremely limited one.

As bad as everything about that is, even changing that skin that people bought under those conditions should entitle them to a full refund.

It won't happen, but that's as horseshit as pay to win existing in the first place.

A major franchise taking money for bullshit and not even letting people keep the bullshit is definitely news, even if it happens with alarming regularity.

Only legislation will fix this. If we allow this to continue, there will be nothing else.

It was a cool skin, never used it myself though. I'm happy I played against it though cause atleast for now everyone else is so much easier to see haha
