The headline bundle jumped again from 1600 last week to 1700 this week.

Because you don’t have to pay for the base game to play. So they made it you get a lot of the armor by purchasing it.

A common Side effect of the change to F2P.

Yeah, but they made that choice. Just because the game is free doesn’t mean you get to start charging $20 per armor set.

Which I could understand… If the prices were reasonable. For $17, you can buy a bevy of full games on sale. Right now, on Steam, I can buy Leadbelcher armor set in a game that barely works (thanks desync) or I can buy Monster Hunter World. Or Devil May Cry 5. Or Disco Elysium. I can also buy the entirety of Witcher 3 on sale. That’s just a few examples.

343 isn’t considering the fact that people can buy entire games for the price of a single armor set in their game. These aren’t microtransactions, they’re macrotransactions that I struggle to see paying off for them in the long-run.
