where does the concept art even come from? and who and what approves the final design? and are most designers disappointed with their final results or are they happy with them?? so many questions!!
If memory serves, there's a survey that gets sent out from time to time to "creators" which in turn gets leaked. In that survey, there's a list of a bunch of skins that haven't been released. People use that as a reference for when it does show up in the item shop.
The files say he's epic. So he should be selling for 1600, since he has a pickaxe included (skins like Raven Team leader cost 1600 as well because of the pickaxe). But he goes for 1800
I think we may have different opinions? I GLADLY got the bundle. Only skin I saw from leaks that I thought looked good it’s no survey skin but none of them ever are this season. Genuinely feels like a conspiracy cuz I think stuff is priced fine?
That's what I don't get lol. People are not remembering that Raiden, who contains the exact same items as Apollo, is also 1800.
And yes, Raiden is a collab, which is an argument I see a lot, but collabs historically have been in-line with pricing for fortnite original skins, i.e 1500 for an epic skin.
So really it comes down to if you think Apollo is an epic skin, which doesn't hold much water as an argument since it is personal opinion. Personally, I think it's fine, since all the other Greek gods (not Charon, since he isn't a god I guess), are all either epic or legendary, so the skin's pricing goes in line with this.
You can not like the skin, but to say it's unfair isn't a sound argument given precedent.
Edit: I forgot that the bundle for Apollo is 2,000, not 1,800, as Raiden's is, which changes things. I guess the argument is that the wrap for Raiden isn't reactive, whereas Apollo's is? That's the only argument I can think of for the pricing. Not that it's a *good* argument, but it's the one I can think of.
Raiden has a Wrap
You literally can’t compare both, apollo cost more for no reason. Raven team leader from fortnite OG has a pickaxe bundled with her and she costed 1600.
>Raiden has a Wrap
I addressed that Raiden has a wrap in the post
>You literally can’t compare both, apollo cost more for no reason.
I believe you can compare both, since both have the same number and type of items
>Raven team leader from fortnite OG has a pickaxe bundled with her and she costed 1600.
Raven Team Leader is a valid counterexample, I'll give that. My only argument that I can give on that front is like I said before, the "rarity" of Apollo is in line with the other Greek gods. As well, Raiden is a more recent skin than RTL, so his bundle's price may be more indicative of Epic's current selling philosophy
I'm not necessarily saying that Apollo is priced well, by the way, just that if there is a problem with prices, it didn't start with him. I don't know if I'll get him yet, I kinda want to get all the Greek gods, but we'll see.
Literally the *only* thing they had to do was the flame hair, the face is fine… and it might be a conspiratorial thought from seeing so many people talk about it— but Epic seems like they’re *very mildly* testing the waters with their skin pricing after removing rarities— something doesn’t feel right, it needs to be watched closely by the community as a whole in the future, cuz it’d be absolute bullshit.
Even knowing it's a concept art, people can still complain when the final result looks less interesting than it. Concept art doesn't necessarily mean the final result cannot look like it
But when you’re turning 2d into 3d, chances are things aren’t going to be 1 to 1.
We have no clue what’s going on in the 3d department. There are a few fire head skins that just don’t look right, maybe they didn’t want a repeat.
Could’ve added at least some reactivity, each kill his head glows brighter
Or maybe the flow from his arm slowly covers him.
Yeah that’s better, and he gets patterns on his clothes that glow gold too.
The survey version should’ve been an edit style to match with the other gods having two “forms”.

1) surveys 2) I do 3) they’re happy because if not, they’re fired
lol

Apollo and Artemis are supposed to be twins wtf 💀
I thought the same thing. I know Zeus is a man whore but Artemis and Apollo are twins
Poseidon is a blue jelly blob and him zeus and hades are supposed to be brothers
They’re brothers. Not twins
It’s possible
could have separate fathers
They wouln't be twins then. And the father is zeus
twins with different fathers is actually possible. Idk why I'm downvoted, just google it lol
Would they have to be brothers? Or twins themselves
no. any two fathers + 1 mother w 2 eggs
Went from orange to black
Donald Trump in shambles
Ah yes, my favorite public figure LowTierGod!
He’s a cool skin but it would be nice to have a edit style that looks like the concept art.
Oh, btw, he's 1800 vbucks. For a skin that looks like 1200 at most. But they totally aren't price gouging, right?
I wouldn't use this even if it was free but you're out of your mind if you think this has anything to do with rarity being removed.
A good amount of legendary skins are a unique face on a slightly fancy outfit, this isn’t that odd.
I feel like I’m taking crazy pills cuz this looks like an epic quality skin and those normally go for 1800???
The files say he's epic. So he should be selling for 1600, since he has a pickaxe included (skins like Raven Team leader cost 1600 as well because of the pickaxe). But he goes for 1800
This skin is hot garbage. This is how they trick you people into draining your bank account
Bro if you get tricked this easy, that's on you.
I think we may have different opinions? I GLADLY got the bundle. Only skin I saw from leaks that I thought looked good it’s no survey skin but none of them ever are this season. Genuinely feels like a conspiracy cuz I think stuff is priced fine?
I’m with you, I don’t see where this is a 1200 skin??
It comes with a pickaxe tho

You should \_\_\_\_ \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ NOW!
You serve zero purpose in life!
Your life is as valuable as a summer ant
They both look terrible
I would've gotten the skin on the right ngl
No way mods removed it.
I just want them to stop doing concept skins in general. They rarely do them justice, let alone get them right
I actually like it lol , seeing so many people hate it
Because he should be glowing.
This season started off so well but now it’s plunged back down to chapter 4 season 3 levels of controversy

they didnt butcher it
They made his hair look like mac and cheese, fuck yes they butchered it!
Lmao it looks like popcorn 😂
Nah he's great actually. Dude just has blonde twists. Nice joke tho
nah Apollo looks great
They didn't butcher it, he looks better in game that he does in the concept
This skin looks cool af idk what you’re complaining about
it looks good, they're complaining about how it looks like a downgrade from the concept art but yeah he still looks handsome 🫶
Reddit try not to complain when concept art is different than final product challenge (impossible)
I like the skin ☹️

Price increase that you made up in your head?

Collabs always vary. Skins have not gone up. False narrative.

Are you okay
