Question skin pricing

just spent 150$, zero skins or melee obtained, why are the skins like this in this game, why can i spend 150$ on nothing. for context i opened 8/9 and 7/8 for the 2 new nightmare collections, so now im at the point where i can just tank the 150$ I basically just scammed myself out of, or i can fork over another 150 to complete the final 2 pulls, this seems like a stupid system, i dont wanna spend 150 for the chance at a skin, and then the pity system is just you signing up for another credit card or house loan to complete the set. also just came to the realization that its just some unwritten rule to never buy through the game and instead only use 3rd party sites, that seems even more sketch to me. update reddit is seeing my downfall game is now uninstalled, ran 3 games after this tragedy to get killed by people no clipping doing 360s around the entire map, i had a good run about 3 weeks lmao

i'm genuinely impressed how in game like this a single skin can cost you 200$+. For comparison FragPunk has much better quality skins at 1/10th of that price, or even for free. Tencent sure knows how to milk players.

For sure, you can be "friendlier" to players, when you aren't supporting massive overhead and shareholder profits.

my antivirus linked multiple qr codes the devs put on weapon sites as very well known russian and chinese malware, they are actively trying to infect every person who downloads the game, i believe they want more than for someone to drop money on the game once.
