Hold onto your seats for a wild ride as we take a track about Fortnite’s one of the wackiest collaborations, Squid Game-style! And the prices? Well, it has triggered some deep debate among the people. Here is the full scoop from the leak by @NotPaloleaks, with gamers seriously conflicted upon calling this a bargain or an outright robbery.
First, before going into the debate, let’s talk numbers. Cost-wise, the skins bundle stands at 3000 V-Bucks; a gear bundle is 700. Individual skins prices thus go for 1,500 for the Guard and the Manager, while the male and female variants bargain five styles and sell for 1,200 each. Backblings like Dalgona and Ddakji are 300 V-Bucks, emotes and wraps are 500 each. So, all in all, about 3,700 V-Bucks for the entire set.
Here’s where it’s getting a little crazy: Some gamers think this is a steal. @RealTheParadigm responded to the haters, “You are getting 12 skins for 3000 V-Bucks. That is a DEAL.” Others, like @GhostPoiint, are questioning the price, tweeting, “Overpriced as fuck.” Then @chanx_x3 jokes, “I’m going to have to join Squid Game to afford ts.” Relatable.
And then there is drama pertaining to characters. @Light4MVSkira ranted, “No Frontman is actually insane… feels like this Collab wasn’t worked on by fans.” Ouch. Then there are those such as @CodyCain20 salty for no secret skins, calling the whole thing “utter bullshit.”
Then there is the bundle confusion. @ElonSucksPeePee seriously asked, “What skins will be in the skin bundle? Does that include all of the defaults?” Meanwhile, @outplayedbyben was losing it over bundling, “Happy everything in a little bundle 😭 even got a gear bundle big W.”
There’s one that is not giving much thought to it. @marcosgonza was very blunt, “I dont want this, not even as a gift.” Harsh but, fair enough.
So, where does that leave us? Some gamers are ready to throw down cash as if signing up for a VIP round in Squid Game while a few others are calling Epic louder than the show’s creepy doll. Overall, it is going to be utter chaos on June 26, whether you are getting the bundle yourself or just watching the whole thing unfold.
Oh, and by the way, in case you haven’t been able to decide on anything yet- they won’t shoot you if you lose in Fortnite. Probably.
