What the hell GGG? - 1 Limit Divergence Hideout Decorations?

I feel like at this point, we’re just grasping at straws to find issues that aren’t really there.

As mentioned, the text clearly provides guidance: you can apply it to a specific weapon type, and using the hideout MTX grants you a single “A” hideout decoration. Nowhere does it claim that multiple hideout decorations are obtained, and similarly, the weapon description does not suggest that the effect applies to dual wielding. In fact, it explicitly states that it affects only weapon type X.

That said, you’ve essentially answered your own question regarding why the Severed Arm MTX doesn’t work on both weapons simultaneously. As Bex noted, it’s not an MTX from a supporter pack, so there’s no restriction preventing you from purchasing two separately if desired.

Ultimately, the text never makes any promises beyond what it explicitly states. Nothing from GGG’s side is misleading, if anything, any confusion likely stems from personal expectations of how the MTX should function rather than any oversight by the developers.

But there you have it, the answer was in the MTX descriptions all along. You’re welcome.

Read it again. I can't be bothered to explain it all over. This is where I end this "conversation" you once again forced on me.

In cases where it's not easy to get two weapon effects, like with supporter packs, those weapon effects automatically apply to both weapons if you're dual-wielding.

As mentioned, the Severed Arm MTX is not a supporter pack MTX, and therefore it does not grant the effect to both weapons. Beyond that, there’s little more to clarify, the item description accurately reflects exactly what is being sold. The messaging is clear and transparent, if you purchase a weapon MTX that states it applies to axes, it works on axes, if you buy one for bows, it works on all bows. It really is as straightforward as it gets.

Similarly, if you’re buying the Mannequin Hideout Decoration, you get exactly one Mannequin decoration for your hideout, just as the description states, “Adds a Mannequin decoration to your personal Hideout.” That’s it. Not more, not less. The use of “A” is intentional and precise, you receive one single item, exactly as promised.

If there were truly any issues with the marketing, misleading claims or deceptive information, rest assured that some regulatory body would have intervened long ago. Yet, more than a decade has passed without a single case, and no significant changes have been made. Do you know why? Because the marketing is, in fact, fair game and entirely above board. Even if you’re a new player and haven’t yet noticed the obvious patterns, the messaging is clear and transparent. Any misunderstanding arises not from the marketing itself, but from skimming the clearly stated product descriptions, and then feeling disappointed if one expects more than what is actually being offered.
