overpriced cosmetics (shards, auric cells)
seriously the stuff the devs added is so incredibly expensive and in about 3 weeks of playing here and there i was able to buy two items with shards. of course i could just "buy everything with real world money" but that ######### is ridiculously overpriced. it wouldve been alright if we wouldve received 4k auric cells just like in the ptb but we didnt get anything. im sick and tired of the devs craving for money without implementing any gameplay features. the game is 2 years old and theres one mode. i will no longer support them with my money like when i bought some of the dlcs back then when they cared enough to make spotlights.

whi do these people think they are working for a pay check, that obviously the government fund because the gaming industry is a charity that supplies endless cash steams for patches and new content.
Buisness 101 if they’ll pay for it sell it at a price they’ll pay for it.6 -
The problem is the Dev's know how to make a game and to keep people interested, yet they lack a eye for business. to pay around 10 dollars or euro for outfit. while a killer is way cheaper to buy like new content is just weird and makes no sense. if they did not get greedy and realise that the balance makes no sense. they would have to aty least makes the outfits cheaper so it cheaper then buying a new killer and chapter or make it ingame currency to earn that does not share the same currency to buy skills. which is a dick and a smart move since people rather buy skills and then outfits and would pay normal money for the out fit instead fo wasting their skill pointson it. yet it shows the Dev's are kinda not caring about the people who play this game and are slowing going for profit only. this means the game itself like so may other big games will go downhill and wont be played soon., they dig their own graves atm.

Buying the killer and survivor separately costs roughly the same in cells as it does in real cash, they have a comparable, the other stuff doesn’t, it makes perfect business sense.Desjar1986 said:The problem is the Dev's know how to make a game and to keep people interested, yet they lack a eye for business. to pay around 10 dollars or euro for outfit. while a killer is way cheaper to buy like new content is just weird and makes no sense. if they did not get greedy and realise that the balance makes no sense. they would have to aty least makes the outfits cheaper so it cheaper then buying a new killer and chapter or make it ingame currency to earn that does not share the same currency to buy skills. which is a dick and a smart move since people rather buy skills and then outfits and would pay normal money for the out fit instead fo wasting their skill pointson it. yet it shows the Dev's are kinda not caring about the people who play this game and are slowing going for profit only. this means the game itself like so may other big games will go downhill and wont be played soon., they dig their own graves atm.
Sell high during initial hype reduce later if required.
you understand without cash there are no devs, so any of you work for free?1 -
People still spend $60 for games by Electronic Arts, and they get a lot less value of it than Dead by Daylight at $20.

I agree it's a little too expensive I've spent £80 on cosmetics. That's too much in my opinion but I did get tennis meg, super dark claudette and my favourite mummy Jake.1

Yeah most items are overpriced but this game doesn’t compare to other games with their rip off DLCs.0

Because people are dumb and will buy them.

I think it's fine as is, I like the Grind
Overpriced, dude £40 for 6k Auric is cheap as hell in my opinion, I spent like 10k on other MMOs i played and each skin cost £20
only thing i dont like as Killer u dont really get much to see ur skin since ur in first person thats all
it would be nice if they made everything grindable and not exclusive to RL money

True. The most I’ve spent on it is $25 only because I have other things to pay for. You gotta grind, dude. Only use your auric cells for cosmetics that can’t be bought with iridescent shards otherwise you’re wasting your money.
I agree that that should bump the auric cells up on the $50.00 pack. Way too cheap.0 -
We'd be lucky if Feng's bunny outfit wasn't $100.

I don't really think it's that bad. Gotta' remember that the DLCs are basically free now too. At the end of the day, you need to pay the bills somehow. Most stuff is available for free with a fair bit of grinding, but if you just want something right now (or one of the few items that are AC only), you can just pay real money.
I think of it as a matter of perspective. I found it to be a little pricey at first, but then I realized, "I don't really need to deck out all my survivors, I only play one or two. I don't play every killer either." Thinking of it that way, you don't end up spending all that much. After you get the things you actually want, everything else is just a free bonus you get just by playing.

Is that even coming out? I know Paulie Ester posted it on his stream but it never came out with the 2.0 patch..Visionmaker said:We'd be lucky if Feng's bunny outfit wasn't $100.
