This is a little sensationalized, $40 is a lot, and it's more than past season pass ultimate bundles, but it's not just one skin for $40 like a lot of people want you to believe.

Is it shitty that the only way to get the skin is through the bundle? Undoubtedly, but it's not any worse than the industry standard.

it’s not any worse than the industry standard.

Why did you phrase that vicious condemnation like an excuse?

You're taking it like an excuse; I despise what the gaming industry has turned to, it's just the reality of things.
