It's a big scam. Why aren't these just edit style of skins? Does that mean that if they want to make another style for these, they'll sell a whole pack again for 3800 vbucks instead of just adding a edit style of skins ?

[@ektairulleon4893]

if we being real with it people who buy multiple of the same skin but low effort are actually morons

[@AgentRaygun66]

That's exactly what they will do.

[@sharkgam3z592]

this is why they got rid of rarities.

[@hearditb4]

I agree, they can price anything whatever price they want now. Seen it especially with the cars

[@hearditb4]

Cars never had rarities however point still stands

[@bp_argo402]

@@hearditb4 cars and shoes are on another stage of scam. w the f are people buying a 40 dollars car on fortnite? or why are they spending 20 dollars for a pair of digital shoes?

[@hearditb4]

@@bp_argo402 lol I can’t even say nothing 😂 I’ve bought so many. I’ve came to the realisation that it all just means nothing but the damage is done 😂😂

[@hearditb4]

@@bp_argo402 Epic’s fomo technique works very very well I suppose

[@King-Zorua]

Back in the day they would’ve made these different edit styles and the people who had the skins would’ve gotten the styles for free

[@hearditb4]

I remember the days where you could log in after a update or new season and you’d have maybe some new edit styles for skins you had for a while. I remember we even got a new edit style for a battle pass skin a whole season after that pass. No way they’d ever do any of that anymore. Not had a free style in years

[@ceemoney5309]

Crazy

[@yaemikos]

@@hearditb4i miss those days

[@TheSupporter76]

These feel like super styles...maybe at one point could have been designed to be unlocked in previous festival passes as the exclusive thing you could have earned.

[@KROW_COMBOS]

@@TheSupporter76 good point! Although I do feel like these are a bit more unique in their presentation vs the copy and paste super styles besides the 2nd style which was always unique but still don’t agree with the price There’s def a different way they could’ve approached this but just some thoughts Thx for tuning in 😎

[@ivi_bit]

for $12 a month, MONTH, crew is honestly a steal, considering there are going to be montly OG passes and an extra 1000 and a skin every month, with the Battle, Music and LEGO passes also coming every so often

[@KROW_COMBOS]

@@ivi_bit yea it’s def one of THE BEST passes I have ever seen in any battle Royale tbh Insane value fr which I gotta applaud 👏 If y’all got the money it’s def worth investing in if u enjoy playing the game a lot! Thx for tuning in 😎

[@reducefilesize]

This stings for festival mains the most. One-year anniversary and all we got was a blatant cash grab.

[@FlipflopMount222]

Now that they've got rid of "exclusivity" they jusy gonna be doing this much more. No more special styles for going to concerts ect.

[@Paladins-Creed]

Spot on. Good idea that if you own the festival pass the price would be cheaper.

[@KROW_COMBOS]

Glad u enjoyed the ideas! There’s def something they gotta do to make getting them more appealing cuz the skins are cool! But it seems a bit scummy to resell them at such a high price, especially if u own the OG ones 😅

[@chantalauclair1966]

I have the Crew Pass and I have paid every Festival pass each time separately so I have the four skins but now I have to pay again for the same skins instead of having an edit style for these skins! If someone doesn’t have the skins, okay, it’s a good deal but not for those who have bought them already! 🤷‍♀️

[@KROW_COMBOS]

@@chantalauclair1966 good point! Like I said in the vid it would be nice at the very LEAST if they gave festival pass owners the bundle discount. So we could buy the skin we want for 950 each. That would be a bit better so we wouldn’t feel forced to buy the whole bundle to enjoy the bundle discount Kinda like a thank you for buying the passes

[@TrookieNL]

I feel stupid now for buying them. 😂😂

[@KROW_COMBOS]

@@TrookieNL noooo 😭 my intention wasn’t to make y’all feel bad about buying the skins but I just wanted to talk about how high the pricing was especially for pass owners who own the OG variants If u enjoy the skin, have fun! Don’t let others ruin your fun Thx for tuning in 😎

[@Aesthxeal]

Im a newbie ( i was interested in fortnite since 2018 but i never had device to play Fortnite ) and i bought this whole bundle, because i love Lady Gaga and other artists which are on this bundle, also i didn't had any skin ( i knew those are just reskins ) and now people are hating on me, calling me dumb, especially my ,, old gen " friends for buying this...

[@PiperMackie]

Don’t worry about other people’s opinions. Buy what you like. But I know it can be hard to not get caught in the hype of some cosmetics. I just bought the McLaren Senna because I love the marvel decals and wheels. Some might think it’s dumb but I love the whole set.

[@KROW_COMBOS]

Enjoy the bundle! I never want people to feel ashamed for something they bought but I did want to talk about the potential issues that might arise from products like this Don’t let people bring you down, as long as you enjoy the skins that’s all that matters! Thx for tuning in 😎

[@KROW_COMBOS]

@@PiperMackieW positivity 😌

[@justSAWYERlol]

I have the festival versions of all of these I still don't have any of the item shops variants for any icon artist shown, except Karol G...so... I still wanted the platinum because I love the multi color oil slick... but now I also gained the Gaga and weekend shop variants. Depends on how you look at it and what you own vs not own and yeah I agree with the others, get what you like. Tbh I love collecting the skins and I totally understand how people want these as extra styles because they're fye you'll be the lucky few running the skins. Imagine the 5 year anniversary and they're Galaxy versions lol.

[@blackjackferoz]

It should’ve been something they earned from challenge or quest it would have made more fun

[@blackjackferoz]

I don’t see why would anyone buy the original skins after platinum‘s

[@KROW_COMBOS]

@@blackjackferoz that would’ve been an awesome incentive ngl! Or if they implemented the change I recommended towards the end of the vid where we got the skins at the discount rate the bundles offered (which was 950 per skin) that would’ve def been way better then feeling like u HAD to buy the whole bundle to take advantage of the discount 😅

The Only One I Would Consider Getting Is THE WEEKEND But Even That’s A Maybe Because I Just Got MESSI & With BLACK ADAM Returning Soon I Got Other Shit Too Be Saving My V-Bucks For Rn…..!!!

[@v0iid444]

They did the same with Rosy Rift Goddess Ariana :( She didn’t even get the pickaxe or glider in pink either! :/ Definitely SHOULD have been additional styles instead of selling it separate… Epic are so greedy…

[@Holacooper]

YES DO NOT BUY IT

[@OneIncherPincher]

They're reactive, so they couldn't have been styles, and auras don't work in every game mode only one, I understand why their different skins.

[@JaidenHoffman-j2p]

There are styles that add reactivity though

[@Jamushu]

1800 a piece for reactivity and a slight color change is needlessly steep tho. Like I have the original Icon Version of this Weekend Skin, and I would rather do challenges in Festival Mode or even get this through Crew Subscriptions, than pay for a Skin twice...

[@guwuega8010]

they should have been heavily discounted alternate styles for people with the original, but standalone if you don’t have the original the price is fair. i got the chrome Billie because i didn’t have a Billie skin.

[@ST-hl6ji]

Love this take! Love your content! Keep it up!

[@KROW_COMBOS]

@@ST-hl6ji appreciate that mah boi! Glad u enjoyed 😎

[@lucasalister3882]

Unless you don’t have any of the original skins, I think it’s a good deal it’s about 950 vbucks per skin and that doesn’t even include the other cosmetic items that are in the bundle

[@lo154lo3]

you forget that buying cosmetics is OPTIONAL and you never need to buy them there are plenty of deals in the game such as the CREW PASS

[@KROW_COMBOS]

@@lo154lo3 pretty sure I mentioned that in this video 😅 if u watch it, I’m just sharing an opinion on something that feels a bit scummy to me BUT if people enjoy it I ain’t gonna bash them. Thx for tuning in 😎

[@brainfreeze7549]

The Gaga one is the worst - she already had a metal outfit

[@Gregory-r5x]

If ppl as a whole, decides to not buy the platinum versions. It would stop fortnite from doing this

[@radiant_rj]

If they offered an upgrade price if you already had the regular skin then that would’ve made more sense.

[@yutoad]

corporate greed, from kicks, lego sets, and more, people need to stop throwing their money to these experiments Epic is trying out with pricing cosmetics IMO

[@CMD_Nick]

FR, could have easily been edit styles, similar to J Balvin and Ariana Grande

[@ivi_bit]

yeah, this year Epic has been selling edit styles as new skins sadly, but hopefully not enough people buy them to make them reconsider

[@Ghostly_Shadows]

All of the prices on skins need re-worked tbh.

[@foundation6867]

I am absolutely disgusted 🤮 by epic games making this awful decisions 3509 vbux for a bundle like it’s the same skins but platinum this should have been a style so let’s see you got the weekend in the festival pass and you get that platinum style

[@pony_sona]

the platinum skins shouldve just been given to people who already owned the skins. it just...makes sense that way

[@DaRk_Finn]

It should be a edit style they are just money grabbing 😢

[@trentwilliams5212]

And I’d literally just rather have the Base weekend kit I’ve been waiting for a minute for it just for them to come with this platinum mess

[@ceemoney5309]

😂😂😂😂😂😂the weekend is always in the shop

[@alsa7956]

Is the original TheWeeknd Skin ever coming back? If no, it would be a very Good alternative to buy.

[@BouncyBobas]

They definitely missed the mark on this. I love festival, have every battle pass. The instruments could’ve been free and skins could’ve been recolors to those who have it and in the shop sell og the bundles w/ recolors.

[@RudyandNicole]

Exactly I agree of what you said. I'm really curious on how there morning meetings are. Lol

[@VMGStudios]

Huge Ripoff! Especially if you have already purchased them on release.

[@lilroast]

Never forget they had the weeknd in shop for like 2 months last winter 😂

[@foundation6867]

This is a straight up a Scam literally why can’t they be edit styles 😑😡 I hate epic games

[@red5wormy165]

Hell no I already own that skin can’t believe og players let Fortnite get away with recoloring their og skins.

[@KROW_COMBOS]

@@red5wormy165 bro there’s no way u believe epic hit us up and asked us to let this happen 😂 they are doing this cuz they want to! If anything they are prob experimenting to see how many people buy this Also the reason why I made this video sharing my thoughts about it Thx for tuning in 😎

[@red5wormy165]

@ Oh I know they didn’t ask you bro, I’m just wondering why there wasn’t a backlash back then like this one.

[@foundation6867]

This is why we need Fortnite rarities back 😑

[@AgentRaygun66]

They don't hand out styles anymore. Everything is a payday now. Glad they didn't f*ck around with Metallica on this.

[@Khasanov_047]

Yeah man for real, at least a discount for those who already owns the skins would be nice. If they would've been in a bundle with the original skins, like 2000-2200 vbucks with original skins, I'd consider buying it. I already have original billie eilish and weeknd, and it would be a nice deal if i could get the platinum ones for additional 500-800 vbucks. That would be a very nice deal. But 1800 vbucks just for some color changes and reactive effect, i don't know about that. But it is what it is. Would love to see your review of these skins, especially billie and weeknd. Maybe they end up being better than they seem in the actual gameplay. By the way, the new survey skins came out recently, I'd like to know your thoughts on those as well, there are some pretty cool skins there, maybe worth checking out)))

[@Deathangel6590_gaming]

Remember when edit styles were a thing?

[@primalchaotix3715]

Would have bought weekend if I didn’t already have the original skin ~.~

[@savagelydiva]

They should've been edit styles.

[@TheMartins-xt4cy]

Im down with your solution id get that Weeknd but i cant pay that price, if i could get it for 950 vbucks i would definitely get it, maybe that Karol G

This was a good deal and a rip off for me. I dont play the rip off guitar hero. So I never baught the passes. I'm not going to play so why bother. I was terrible at the real guitar hero with the plastic guitar so I'm not going to play it with a controller. So I had none of the singers and rappers. Honestly not interested in Real life people characters without a gimmick. Ninja looks like a ninja...you get it, gimmick. So having none all I wanted was billie eilish because let's face it...she looks like a total boss. Chick screams cool factor.(her other 2 skins i wanted but one was item shop the other guitar hero pass. I didn't want one without the other.) And The weekend because of the mask skull gimmick. The problem is I only wanted those 2. I had no choice but to get gaga(which I never cared for.) And Karol...whoever she is(looks like barbie) just to not get ripped off. If you buy 2 like the guy said you will see that it's not worth it unless you give up and buy the bundle. Re listen to how the guy explained it. I can't articulat it. But yah, it kinda worked out sense I had non. (Hey!...where's my wallet!? EPIC!!!! Give that back!!! I need to buy groceries!!!

[@bp_argo402]

Also this is happening with emotes .the "BRATTY" emote and "attractive" emote (chali xcx's apple meote ; ILLIT's magnetic emote) are rushed and poorly made, they have weird facial expression, and are animated poorly.

Fortnite Festival Platinum Birthday sucks everything we got this month for Fortnite is really good but the Festival Birthday is bad and Festival really isn't that popular anymore so I see why and I stopped playing Festival because Festival is boring but the new Metaverse modes we got in ch6 are so cool we have OG Fortnite back permanently thankfully and Ballistic is here permanently thankfully there is a Metaverse of shooting games in Fortnite now thankfully because we have BR, Reload, OG, and Ballistic thankfully the Metaverse has just gotten better this chapter Fortnite learned from ch5 they fixed the movement, they brought back hitscan thankfully, they made Fortnite cartoonish again thankfully, they made fun little details on the island, they made the map beautiful and look and feel like Fortnite, they didn't shove Metaverse modes, and they made better Metaverse modes in ch6 by bringing 2 permanent shooter games being OG and Ballistic and they also brought Lego GTA 6 called Lego Brick life and the mode was teased with the same keyart as GTA 6 and Lego Fortnite said ah bricks here we go again when that teaser was posted as a refrence to GTA so Lego Fortnite have GTA 6 before GTA 6

[@chronicallysinclair]

I wasn't playing when the other Billie Eilish's were in the game so because of the Platinum Icons I now have her the only rip off is The Weeknd. The Platinum Icons help people like me get skins we missed. Just because you have the other skins doesn't make it a scam.
