Hi, Some of us got an Overwatch survey almoust 1,5 moth ago for his account, and right at the start community notice that some of these prices they’re gauging for OW2 are really expensive.
“I hope this is just him getting one of the higher price surveys and not an indication that they’re leaning towards this much monetization.” sayed Portergauge with IGN iterview.
The survey lists proposed prices for Weapons, Skins, and Charms, asking players if they would be willing to pay $44.99 for a single mythic skin, $24.99 for a legendary skin, $29.99 for a legendary bundle, or $9.99 for a weapon charm.
That’s a lot higher than you might expect.
“I am still surprised people are willing to pay this much for skins,” said one Reddit user. “When I played Valorant for awhile I would refuse to pay these sorts of prices, would only get a few select things on ‘sale’ or the season pass if I knew I would be playing enough and it had a few items that I wanted.”
A survey causing waves within the Overwatch 2 community that those pricetags are unacceptable.
“is not indicative of final pricing,” sayed blizz on Twitter
A Blizzard spokesperson told IGN, “This survey is entirely intended to better understand player preferences for different types of Overwatch 2 cosmetics. Prices displayed in the survey were randomized ‘per user’ and are not indicative of final pricing. We plan to share details on our Shop and Battle Pass system closer to our Oct. 4 launch.”
Ultimately, Blizzard says that some of the suggestions in the Overwatch 2 survey are not meant to be reasonable – presumably gauging interest among players to find a spot that makes the company money without scaring players away.
So simply Blizzard lie all of us about those “randome prices” been too high and not adequate for Item shop.
