    First of all, don't start insulting others.
    And valve already stated, the things in the shop will be purely costmetical and optional, THEY DO NOT AFFECT GAMEPLAY, SO YOU DON'T NEED THEM.
    The lgendary invite exists because they don't have the servers to open the game up fully yet.

    And it's your opinion that the couriers are too expensive, and that they should be 5-10 €.
    What if having them as 5-10€ would make it non-profit? Do you know what was used to make them? What the people behind it was paid? No, you don't.
    Also you can't use more than one courier at a time anyway, and one courier is around 10€, so no problem there. Why do you care about a bundle of couriers? You can only use one at a time anyway, and you even have a chance of finding the couriers ingame. And you paid nothing for the game.

    This thread is illustrious. Nevertheless I must insist that you not call each other pricks.
    Thou shalt not rage.

    I'm not sure how you sensed attitude from my previous post but ill ignore your comment.

    Back on topic what is e problem with making more money as their goal when choosing a business model. Should they set out from the get go to make less money or even lose money? I'm rather confused about that. Yes you are probably correct that they will implement more things that will cost money but it's not you'll NEED to spend it it is you CAN spend it if you want to. The new feature for in game tournament watching is great if you want to spend money to have more insight of the action. If you don't then watch a stream. It is true that more money will be made this way by selling cosmetic items and such but it also caters for a wider range of people that want to spend different amounts on the game. People like yourself will perhaps spend zero dollars but still get to enjoy the game which i assume is great for you while others spend a lot more cause they feel what they are buying is worth it.

    Regarding your price point you gave no reasoning. Why is that price acceptable? Why not make it 1 euro for the whole bundle? Have you thought about the person that put a lot of hard work in to make that custom courier in the steam workshop to try make some money? Why is it fair to rob that person of his hard work?

    I am actually glad they at least supplied the option for people to purchase the early access if they wished cause there are many people that would prefer to give their money to the game developers than the irrelevant people that were hoarding invites/keys.

    I am confused about your inability to comprehend necessity vs. luxury. To keep it within the context of the game anything that can be purchased from the store is a luxury. I am sure that there are many others, like myself, who are enjoying the game thoroughly without buying a single cosmetic item.

    Your premise is wrong.

    I don't see how you could possibly make such a huge deal out of this. The answer is simple. If people want to spend money on cosmetics it's their money. Shouldn't be a problem for you. Sounds like you're just mad because your mom wont let you borrow her credit card to buy nonsense on the internet after that whole porn incident, thus you're the only one of your friends who doesn't own one of those extremely awesome and cool couriers. Too bad for you kid, that's life. Deal with it.
    I COULD be wrong, but I seriously doubt it!

    Bottom line, I know its all about the money, I said it many times, but its still too much, I find it offensive and we agree to disagree, and thats also natural.

    when many of u start making the money with ur hard work, u'll understand why 100's of euros wasted on a game matters, but why would Abdul Raji Sheik with millions, or any other spoiled person, care bout that.
    A diamond has no purpose or meaning other than its a shiney rock that is rare, there are more beautiful rocks IMO but they are more common and cheaper.

    You don't know a lot about diamonds, do you? It's actually a pretty sought after material for things like industrial drills and the like. About 80% of mined diamonds are used for industrial purposes.

    We were talking about diamonds as a luxury item.
    You are talking about diamonds with a purpose.

    Might wanna check the context the next time.

    Diamond rings, necklaces, earrings and the likes, that's what he's and we are talking about.

    Diamonds were used for apparel long before they were ever used in machining and synthetic ones are better for machining anyway. There are plenty of rocks and other rare materials used industrially they dont end up costing a fortune or being worn as luxury items.
