This is where the majority of their development budget goes.

Cash shop then seems to be one of their highest priorities. So yeah I agree, greed.

For sure. If they put as much time into making content as they did Cosmetics on the cash shop, the game might be in a decent state. Might be.

People complain about the dumbest stuff.

This is the kind of stuff that should have gone into the battle pass, it is bereft of anything meaningful.

Especially considering the platinum the battle pass gives you can’t buy anything in the shop. I mean I thought blizz might be nice and like most BP if you complete the whole thing and not use the shop, you could at least buy the next season. But 666 platinum can’t afford even the cheapest option in the shop.

You CAN buy a whole three tiers with it… out of working through 99.99999% of the entire thing…

You realize in order to justify paying off their 8K+ Developers and 400+ Programmers & Engineers they need a source of income correct?

I don’t understand what’s so hard about not paying for the cosmetics they’re selling. The only time you ever see your character in their full garb is from the inventory screen or before you logon, guarantee you aren’t looking at your cool gear in the middle of battle, or your bad@ss tattoos, or the fancy earrings, or the great hair you took 10 minutes to pick out and color only to have it hidden behind your awesome helmet.

The thread isn’t about buying it though. It’s about where they have put development effort into.

Also, if cash shops didn’t work, games like dota2 would’ve never made any money, you know? If the masses can’t get tempted into buying it, even against better judgement, then even mobile games would’ve never become as big as they are.

Still doesn’t change the concept of a cash shop.
It’s weird how the buyer has all the power isn’t it? If you don’t like the price of something you simple don’t buy it.
