    Btw, Id like to get in on the fun and go to Hawai, but those airplane tickets are kind of a paywall. Cant they be more like $50 or so? I'd like to get in on the fun.

    Aloha from Oahu.

    That's not a pay wall buddy. Those are cosmetics and have no impact in the game. Also why are you going on about buying cosmetics when you're already worried about the monthly fee?

    Cause the cosmetics are cheaper and I'm not paying for the game every month yet so easier to buy skins now.

    I may be mistaken, or this may have changed, but I was under the impression that you could only buy skins up to the level of access you purchased.

    So, if you wanted to buy an accessory skin in the future, you would need the $75 pack, as that is the pack that comes with an accessory skin, and so allows you to buy more of them.

    On the other hand, if you wanted to purchase a caravan or freehold skin, you would need to buy the $375 pack, as that is where access to those skins come in.

    Assuming this is still the case, that would mean a pack that didn't have any skins in it at all would give you access to no skins in the future.

    I don't mind the current prices, but it is pretty expensive however there's a bit of rarity in it which I can respect. Also from my understanding these cosmetics will be obtainable ingame but with different color varients. I asked about the polar bear mount on discord and got that answer at least.

    That’s the case for many of these cosmetics. And it makes sense; spend a few hours designing a detailed cloak with feathered shoulders, a glowing rune on the cowl, and shimmering trim. That’s one item you can sell or have someone earn in the game. Then spend 5 minutes tinting it a few different ways and now you have a half dozen items. MMOs have always recycled art resources that way, it’s tradition.

    Just wait until 2022 when the betas start, maybe something else will pop up then.
