Yikes, more than 48 hours since release and still no response from Anet. As a lot of people have already said, this is pretty bad.The price of the skins is actually fine in my opinion (except the 2000 gems one). It's the RNG aspect of it that I don't like. I would happily pay money for the skins I actually like, because there are a few that are pretty neat, but I'm not going to spend money on this. I do hope Anet realises they should respond to this. Jim Sterling already made a video about this. If a bigger youtuber gets on this (like AngryJoe as someone suggested, who praised the game when it came out, but hates lootboxes), this game would be fucked.
No one is demanding free mount skins. People who are upset about this (including me) are not angry about the price of the adoption license, but about the RNG aspect of it. I will gladly pay more than 400 gems for the skin I want. But only if I had the option to choose the skin, because there are 2 skins that I really like, but I don't care much for the other 28.
