If it wasn't time limited you would be correct. The point is to make you fomo into buying it even if you aren't using the uniques because "maybe I will someday and I'll look real lame if I don't have that."

So basically just like any collector's item anywhere? Yeah, that's how you sell stuff. Scarcity and exclusivity drives up value to people. This is basic sales stuff that any free to play game has to understand how to do if they're going to continue to stay afloat.

We've always had time-limited packs too. That's not even new.

They create dozens of new MTX every league. Nobody remembers the stuff from the past, and at some point, nobody will care about these either, because there will be new shiny things to decorate your characters with. Anyone who can't cope with FOMO should probably try to keep that in mind. There's always a new shiny to chase.

Path of Exile has provided people 1000's of hours for free... unless they chose to give some via microtransactions.

This battle pass is literally the same as the microtransactions and gives GGG more income that they genuinely deserve for the game they continue to develop.

I know this will likely cause a storm of fools complaining about something that they don't need to get involved with whatsoever.

Yikes

Exactly this.

I am amazed that there are still white knights defending this madness of an idea.

Having an opinion you don't agree with is white knighting now? Interesting perspective you have on the world.

I really don't understand why it has to be that all of my sextant modifiers are gone now after the update, and you didn't warn us to use compass on it to store it!!!!!! So now i lost 2ex because of this.... TNX GGG

A bottled faith that stands out from deli fog and a dying sun that makes it easy to see if you have 100% uptime with every skill without looking at buffbar/flasks are advantages. Sorry.

30$ ? are you out of your mind?

No... just... no.

So much effort pumped into something cool that is built upon monetizing FOMO.

As for someone who bought packs this leauge as well and will get the new tabs and has a bit of a gambling issue so probably will throw a few at the boxes, I can't even tell how disappointed I am in this decision.

WTF??? are you serious? this is a bad sign :S

fuck everything about this.

whyyy what is the issue i really want to know?

Lets say you decide to buy the pass because you think you have plenty of time to unlock things. Well stuff happens and you can't play anymore and you haven't unlocked the skins you paid for. Congrats, you got nothing for your money.

Then don't buy it. It's not a mortgage on house ffs.
