    In case I am not clear for some reason, I have NOTHING against supporter packs and microtransactions in a free to play game, Warframe and Digital Extremes have to make profits somehow off of a free product. The past supporter packs I've had no issues with, but this time they have decided to lock a WARFRAME DELUXE SKIN behind a FOMO paywall. The problem isn't the pack or bundle, the problem is the price of the bundles.

      No one would be batting an eye at $30-40. Especially with plat.
      Zero plat at $70 and 600 at $90 is an insult to players.

      i bought the largest pack i can. the only problem i have is the measly ammount of plat i got with it.
      everything else seems fine to me, infact this is better than their most famous use of FOMO the founders pack, since its cosmetics not stat upgrades.
      i dont think this is overpriced for the items i am getting at all, i think this is overpriced for the tiny ammount of plat.
      again, i dont really care though, as i have already bought it, and will continue to buy things from DE

    @koldraxonofthefirstseven5718 Год назад +48

    I agree with this, except... the price choice. The halos are essentially auxiliary attachments (they don't usually count when part of a bundle), and if we're going by how Deluxe skins are normally priced, these together would be around ~375 plat (including everything except the plat and Regal Aya) which would be around £15, if it was bundled with the plat and Aya.
    That I would tolerate. £60 for two skins and redeem tokens for their Primes feels like a poorly-thought cash grab, especially when there's already skins like Frost Harka, Mag Penumbra, and Tennogen that could do similar.
    The thing I personally find darkly amusing is that this is the only recollectable gripe I've really had with Tennocon. The 'games on your phones?' bit was more of a hilarious, if not unfortunate, callback to when Blizzard did that at their Blizzcon - but it's impressive to see phones capable of running Warframe.

      While I get the 'yeah it's to support them', the price for two Deluxe-tier skins, an emote most will never see, a sigil and glyph should not be that.
      The Regal Aya and plat bumping the price to the level of a Prime Access is what's annoying here.
      DE could set the precedent of being able to charge £60 for two skins, 600 plat, and 6 Regal Aya (which is really all it is at the end of the day). If it sells well to them, they'll do it again until people think it's fine to spend £30 on one Deluxe skin.
      While I appreciate the supporter's sentiment, the content in that pack isn't enough to warrant its price(s).
      Upside is that it's the only negative from this year's Tennocon that I can see.

    While with the Zenith bundle, you can only use mag or frost. Which feels like you're missing out. Just kinda feels bad in general.

  • @TJM990
    @TJM990 Год назад +3

    When i did the math Yesterday (in USD). I came to the conclusion that while Prime Acess and Acessories aren't cheap, they offer about 3x the value of what your spending.
    The Celestial actually skimps you a bit by not having the bonus plat/aya that would come from $40 of Aya normally, selling it without any bonus.
    The Zenith does end up coming in at about a $120 value (when asking for $90), so a 30% gain. Compared to PAs 200% though, it isn't great.
    The actual value of the skins and their signas ends up falling to $15 each if you cut out the Aya that you may not want. Despite the low contents vs other 225p deluxe bundles, these at least have their specialty argument to argue the price.
    Now only if you could just get each Frames bundle separately for 15 USD...
    and you know...no FOMO.
    Hell they could remove the 10yr accolade come next year from the packs and leave the skins.

    I actually agree. Considering this content is infinitely scalable for no extra cost to DE it doesn't really hurt them to have a more reasonable price and make up the total revenue in increased sales. $20 skins are too much. You can't ethically charge a 3rd of the cost of a whole game for a single skin. You can try but I'm never going to agree with that concept of value. These 2 skins are more than many entire games. There's no way I can justify paying that. I can afford it. I just draw a line at being overtly ripped off.

    I think they had the concept of trying to rerelease primes at a higher glory with a different look simmilar to a prime acccess price. Probably geared more towards newer players but they include esoteric stuff that the serious players are going to want. I think had they made the pack include 1700-2700 plat in it that it would be a no brainer for the veteran players who already have all the primes but would use the extra stuff an save the aya in case they hit a hiyatus. I think they didnt want to make it have to much plat an ppl buy that instead of prime access or accessories and it seem like they have a decline but at the same time for the ten year pack we are expecting something that leaves us saying sweet, not a bittersweet taste in our moutg

  • @darrylferguson3622
    @darrylferguson3622 Год назад

    I remember seeing the battle these skins caused in region chat after the tennocon reveal.
    Before anyone asks, i think that the skins look great and if you have disposable income, you can get them no problem.
    That said, beyond aesthetics, it is poor value for money no matter the tier.
    The 'Risen' tier ($31 CAD/ $23 USD) has a minimum plat value of 475 assuming the colour palette cost 75 plat, and doesn't include a single skin.
    I could buy 540 plat for roughly 1 CAD extra in total, so even if the decals and sigils cost 20 plat each, just buying plat would be more worthwhile price wise since i can buy Frost Prime for 100 - 300 plat on WF Market and use the remainder to buy his deluxe.
    The 'celstial' tier ($72 CAD / 53 USD) gets you the two skins and 6 Regal Aya. Alternatively, $42 CAD or 31 USD gets you 7 Regal Aya, meaning the skins are potentially valued at $15 CAD/ 11 USD each.
    This is likely why they are not purchasable individually since most people would just buy the sole heirloom skins.
    The highest tier 'Zenith' ($93 CAD / $68 USD gets you the skins, all the decals, 600 plat and 6 Regal aya.
    For $86 CAD or 64 USD, you can buy 740 plat + 7 Regal Aya. You could get both prime frames for 300 plat, buy deluxe skins for both, and have plat left over.
    I suck at math and calculated this before watching the video, so i'm probably repeating old info and/or made a calculation error, but this pack still feels overpriced.
    As a 10 year anniversay themed bundle, the dex offerings make a mockery of this.

  • @samuelemmert5136
    @samuelemmert5136 Год назад +2

    I admittedly have slightly less stake in this than your average tenno as I don't play mag or frost enough for these skins to have been on my radar on the first place, but this does feel super scummy. I've shilled out for prime access before , but it wasn't because of the exclusive cosmetics, it was because I loved the frame, and more importantly, the game. It's quite literally the only time I've ever spent my own money on a F2P game, and perhaps I shouldn't be making broad assumptions based on anecdote, but I can't be the only one who was willing to spend money on Warframe because of the goodwill DE has demonstrated up to this point.
    Founder packs were one thing, it's different when you're trying to get your game off the ground. But now? They don't have that excuse, and considering the steps they've taken to mitigate FOMO with prime resurgence and limiting cash-only items to attachments and other secondary cosmetics, this stinks of them seeing what they can get away with in the smokescreen of anniversary hype.

    If they gave out 2500 to 3k plat I'd be happier, that way it's closer to a prime access bundle. Otherwise, I think the bundle is ok. I will be buying because I want to splurge on the game. I also think the high asking price is supposed to mimic the founders pack of old, something that's exclusively for the biggest fans. It does sadly hurt the fans that can't afford it however.

    How are the idiots again Warframe Prime or Grendel Prime so this sumo which was hard to get but without exaggeration DE.
    The more prime frames they spend, I have the impression that they don't care about the existence of ordinary frames, it's better only checkout checkout and use of FOMO. I wonder if it was just a one-time action but after all, the Chinese and sausage fuckers will support such actions anyway and it will appear more and more often because it was just a test of whether we are so desperate and yes btw if someone is counting on a refund then no you will get because you also pay for two "premium" currencies Aya and Platinum so you won't get a refund just a little warning so that you don't buy mindlessly, unless one of you meins Mag or Frost then please but remember that you buy this set only for money not for platinum or even for all those Aya just for cash..

    Maybe I could justify buying it to myself if:
    1: I was a mag or frost main
    2: Or a collector of skins and warframes.
    I am the latter of those 2 but even then it is still too expensive.
    With how much they are asking I usually buy groceries for 4 people for a week or buy multiple games.
    This is too much money to ask for what we are getting.
