Can someone Explain me how can it be that an Game which needed Thousands of Hours of development Cost in the end 20$
and then you got Skins which maybe cost 5-10 Hours or Maybe even Less and Cost 10$?

I mean are People who buy them realy think that a Skin is worht 10$

Same for Auric cells you get like what 10 or 20% Bonus when you buy for 50$ compared to buy 5x for 10$?

In other Games i get 200% Bonus when i Purchase directly for 100$ how money greedy are these dev's and you guys even support that kinda sad.

    The answer to your question is lootboxes.
    They are as costly as they are because any cheaper and the only viable way to make a profit off the few players that  are actually willing to buy cells and not just grind them out would be rng lootboxes and as those have a bad rep they obviously didnt want to travel down that path.


    They have zero effect on gameplay. Theres much bigger problems with this game right now

    As gibbly said, they have absolutely no effect on the actual game. They are virtual skins and nothing more. There are soooo many problems with this game and complaining about cosmetics is not the way to go I'm afraid.

    I've always wanted Auric Cells to be given alongside new Chapters. So if you buy the Chapter within the first week of it releasing you get Auric Cells as a reward.

    My question was more how can it be that the development of a skin which cost 5-10h cost 10$ while a whole game takes thousands of hour cost 20$?

    How I personally feel about cutesy little cosmetics aside, its not up to me to decide how someone decides to spend their money. Nobody is being forced to buy or grind for these cosmetics... If someone wants them that doesn't have the $, at least there is a way to get them. Id rather have fixing ongoing issues be of a higher priority but, that's a different discussion.
