This is just appalling

They are kinda cheating us when a 3 second emote is $7 and a shirt with matching pants is $18 with no extra exp boost or stats.

Haha granted I agree prices on these aesthetic items do seem expensive for me (in part because CAD/USD exchange rate is atrocious lol), but that's the point a lot of people are also trying to make in that it may be expensive to you, but that doesn't mean someone else won't buy. So how can that mean SE is taking advantage or cheating people?

If you ask me, the only way I think we could absolutely feel cheated is if they raise our sub fees and forced you to buy actual battle related content via the cash shop. Could you imagine the outrage?

But as it stands now, whether I have the new attire or not, my gameplay and everyone else's gameplay aren't affected.

End of the day though, I get that people have the right to provide feedback and agree on prices, but I just find it odd when the argument makes the company sound like it's out to scam people, when the choice is still in the hands of the user.

That's my exact opinion. There are no hidden fees, no hidden clause tucked in page 500 of your ToA. The price is listed point blank. It's a more hefty with less than usual amount of clothing but there's no in-game environment nor real life one to coerce one into buying it. Furthermore, being ripped off would imply that you were given an item at displayed price, only to be charged a whole different amount. That's an actual scam.

I guess all I'm saying is let us be logically outraged and not pitchfork mob dementia outraged.

I get what you mean, but I have to say if they let us buy an outfit set and hair for $15 and turn around and make a shirt and pants $18.... I feel like that's kinda cheating. Oh well, though. To each their own I guess. I'm still not buying it.

Edit: I guess I mean scummy more than cheating.
