And to answer the "devalue" argument objectively. The very fact that you desire cosmetics that are no longer available to you and owned by other players gives those items value.
They changed the formula for Keys I don't see why they couldn't. If they made the modern packs available to older early adopter I wouldn't be mad.
True it creates an artificial value that doesn't feel good for most people, Some older adopter might have wanted a more modern pack too There's a reason everyone hates scalpers they abuse of that first come first served mentality and while it makes sense in a limited/physical supply market, This mentality makes less sense when its a few digital lines in a database that could be that could be changed for a few queries.
we've already established that New players who wants to get into the Alpha 2 deserves to do so even if they missed out... Why not allow those who bought cosmetic packs to exchange them for another in order to have a pack they like and are going to use for years to come instead of dissatisfied people not wearing a costume they don't like out of a circumstance.
there's already quite a lot of friction when games provide 1 Pre-order package, Intrepid made like 25-40 of them. Do we really need more friction and toxicity for pre-order packages that are all worth the same monetary value?
At this point I feel like this conversation wont evolve much but I loved everyone's feedback even If i might not agree with some of y'all so i'll stop following the thread.
I hope intrepid takes some time to look at this thread and weigh both sides of the argument in order to make the right decision whatever it might be and I cant wait to see you all in Verra! Have fun and stay healthy!
Tell me where they said they'd never have alpha keys again with the last cosmetic pack? They only said cosmetics would no longer be available. Nothing disingenuous there.
But saying things that were limited are no longer limited would be disingenuous.
As for whether people deserved access or not to alpha, I'm indifferent. I say only release more as needed. If the participation gets lower, make it available again. If there are plenty of players participating, no need to add more. Nobody is owed the right to test the game unless theyve already paid for it.
Makes Sense.
But You know what the most " f~ed up " fact about all of this is ? About 2018-Cosmetics and the likes ?
That some to "MANY" People who pre-ordered that 2018 Stuff, are now dead. Because "something" came around the Corner,
from People who "constantly dream and slobber over" the Fantasy and Idea, that a World with "LESS PEOPLE" inside it, would be a good thing,
and then a "Vaccination" for this "something" - came around the Corner, too.
"and then" some People dropped dead "without Warning" suddenly, someday, sometime.
" It was Magic ", i tell you.
And with this, i end already what i wanted to say. In fact, by saying the bare Minimum i already said to much in a way. This is not a so called "political Forum" - and Nobody will appreciate that i don't trust Anyone who thinks they rule and "OWN" Humankind all around our beautiful Planet.
Fact is : some People have no longer have enough of a Pulse, trying to "profit" from buying the Cosmetics around 2016, 2017, 2018 or when the first of them were around.
And the remaining Rest of us will never "see" these Cosmetics.
Or we will see them on a few, VERY rarely strewn People - who then "Wonder oh Wonder", will probably find their Way then onto the Blocklists to some to many People.
Like with the "Black Qiraji Battle Tank"-Mount around the Time of WoW Vanilla.
Then i found out about the whole Story regarding that Mount. And i was only like : " Oh ... ... "
Like the " Oh ... ... " - from John Wick. (hahahahahahahahahahaah)

Yeah... the value of depression and the feeling of being treated like a lesser human being.
I know it comes to a shock to some people in this world and they may not even understand it in their entire life, not even if a certain type of symptom can be experienced by them for +80 years or so.
But respect... cannot be forced.
It cannot be triggered, activated, or commanded.
This is something that builds slowly and naturally.
And no superficial look will ever be able to invoke this.
Even naturally beautiful people IRL start to look super, mega, giga ugly if they just talk enough bs.
And that is a very good thing.
It's not so much the painting it's more the artist, but I agree it is ugly lol
You good?
Leave your tinfoil conspiracy out of this forum. There are middle aged Facebook mom groups for that.
If you want to call Doctors all around the World - who can 100% clear explain to You why a certain "Vaccination" killed countless People - "Conspiracy Theorists", then sure - go ahead.
The sad Part about this is, when People like you right now act like they are to stupid to understand medical Science. It's okay if our Monkey-Relatives can not understand. We however should be smarter.
The not so sad part is - > Please tell me you got the Shot as well.
