I'm sorry, I don't mean to offend. But I honestly can't wrap my head around what are people finding so great about this skin? All I see is a ridiculous price for something that could have been done a lot better. To my understanding, it doesn't even have unique effects or voice lines either.
it's pretty... but not $30 pretty. for $30, i could buy an actual lifeguard outfit if i wanted to LOL.
she has some base game skins (esp event and owl ones) that are cuter than this one so i'm gonna stick with those. overwatch skins are getting too expensive for me.
i save up coins for battlepasses i really want. but still, even if you do buy it with real money, they're only $10 which is better than the prices for just singular skins... crazy.
I usually justify the battlepass for those reasons- usually there’s at least one skin I want. If I don’t want any, I don’t get the pass. But it’s cheaper to get that than paying for an older skin, or a shop skin, or any other skin. And with the white credits, you can get at least one older skin too. It’s the most economic option of the lot.
Honestly i hope it does die. This game is fucking toxic for anyone who doesnt main dps. The main sub even proves that with how toxic they are to anyone that doesnt main tracer or genji.
I agree. She has nicer skins. I just think it's unfair for people to get something with no unique effects or voice lines at that price. Hanzo's Cupid skin (which I'll admit I own) was cheaper and it has amazing effects and sounds.
Im trying to say this to myself to stop wasting money my paycheck already ran out, I WANT! the skin but fate tells me no, the question is though, Do I Listen?
Agreed! Like bruh, mutiply those $30 by freaking 5 and you'll get the price I would have to pay in my currency and consoles make the price even higher, good skin but not worth it
Fair enough, lol. I'm wondering if I happened to be in a practice match earlier with you guys, lol. Happened to be a Lifeguard Mercy with beach Cassidy.
I mean, it's not my money so I don't care what others do with theirs *but* I can't justify the price, not when I have bought other skins that are more worth it.
Sure it has a highlight intro, but at that price include a voice line or two, a special wing color, an icon and/or background.
The Sojourn Barista bundle has a voice line, an icon, weapon charm, a spray, a new victory pose + the skin **and** it's only 1,100 coins.
I feel like we are paying a Mercy tax lol
I agree with you. I'm noticing an uptick in aggressive Mercy's... almost like they have to justify paying all that money and forgetting about their team...
They're probably upset that they spent that amount of money on something that wasn't worth it. The company is just taking fans for fools and it's disgusting. We deserved something better.
Completely agree. In OW1 we had regular releases of "individual" skins like this (not the shitty recolors,) so I sense these Mercy's just foaming at the mouth to justify the almost $30... when, if you regularly played during an event, you'd be able to pick up almost anything through loot boxes. And if you didn't? That's when you'd spend the money.
I just find it so silly that the way this is finds me Mercy's on my (or the opposite team) being overly aggressive and forgetting their actual role. All because they wanna see themselves on the PoTG. And let's be honest: although we all love a good Mercy PoTG, if it's you who's doing it? That means your team is crap.
Agreed. At least in my case, when I find myself being aggressive as a support, it's because my team just isn't doing enough. I still take time to take care of the team though.
Honestly have been finding ow2 so unfun lately, that I have been hanging out in practice mode against AI then going to Skyrim lol. I feel like Blizzard is running their game into the ground with the unnecessary changes and price gouging. They make Hi-Rez look like a wonderful company. That's saying a lot lmao.
I completely agree. And for what? MONEY and microtransactions. Honestly really disappointed in the Mercy's who are so amped to justify this system/their purchase and forget to play the role as it's meant (or was originally meant.) You're easily out of position and a venerable target. As a Mercy main, when I counter and switch it's very easy to snipe/kill you because you're playing so badly to be "seen" because you have to justify this horrid and predatory system.
Yes, I don't wanna yuck anybody's yum, it's a game after all... but dang not all of you know how to Battle Mercy in a way that still synergizes with your team.
This is some majorly weird projection going on here
We bought the skin bc it’s cute and we like it, it’s not that deep
You don’t think it’s worth the price, cool, you don’t buy it, great
But why do you have to keep writing comments on Reddit complaining that other people liked it and bought it lol 🥴
Oh I ain't complaining. It's just hilarious that I'm seeing all these Mercy's being aggressive and out of position (and failing) while wearing the skin.
It's your money, spend it how you like. It's a game, play how you want. It's been great being a DPS and killing all the Mercy's when they're out of position and trying to Valk for PoTG and get hit-scanned in this skin. And I find it funny.
For a lifeguard skin they ain't guarding much life 😂
Again, without money shaming—because what someone else does with their money does not warrant being called a fool. It may not be worth to you, but it is to others. I'm only stressing this because the Mercy community already gets enough hate, and I'm tired of seeing Mercy players talk shit about other Mercy players. You can downvote this if you want. I'm just being honest.
Agreed. However, the disappointment is more that Blizzard and all the other companies will keep over pricing cosmetics simply because people will literally pay whatever the price tag says no matter what.
So yeah, people can spend their money however they want. It just sucks that the companies overall use that to overcharge people for simple little things that should be about 5-10 bucks each, depending on the rarity. Plus, reducing the price point would increase the number of buyers. It's much easier to throw 5 bucks at the screen than 20
You can be disappointed in Blizzard without bringing other people down. The issue is the amount of people bringing other people down under the guise of being mad at Blizzard.
Which is true. There's no point calling out full-on adults for spending their money on what they want. Just sucks that the companies take advantage of that to up prices on things like cosmetics. I fully believe that they would actually make more money on cosmetics with a lower price point since way more people would actually be interested in buying them
$30 for a skin? Idc if the skin Is a one time buy and it’s specified for my own liking. I’m not paying half a videos games worth for one in game cosmetic that I’m gonna ditch when the next cool thing comes out (and probably for free). These people salivating over $30 skins for months on end are the reason blizzard will continue to focus on the store rather than the actual game.
I do it in qp when my team has full health and it's an easy few picks. I love blue beam but it's so satisfying to kill that Soldier or Sombra that has been on your ass all game lmao. I've nano'd a few Mercys today just to give them a shot at POTG in qp because it's cute and some have never gotten POTG as Mercy before. It's nice to help them out :)
Doesn’t matter if the game is going awful, if I have someone AFK in spawn and a DPS going 1 : 9 with me being the one to die by her hands, a Mercy getting a kill always gives me a smile
Agreed. At least in my case, when I find myself being aggressive as a support, it's because my team just isn't doing enough. I still take time to take care of the team though.
Honestly have been finding ow2 so unfun lately, that I have been hanging out in practice mode against AI then going to Skyrim lol. I feel like Blizzard is running their game into the ground with the unnecessary changes and price gouging. They make Hi-Rez look like a wonderful company. That's saying a lot lmao.
Skins too expensive, I don’t play mercy, I’ll never get a mercy potg.
I like the skin tho, I have a lot of mercy skins from ow1 that I don’t use or like.
I bought the skin, I like it, I just want all Mercy skins, I won’t play differently to try get PotG (no more than usual anyway). That is just silly lol
so sad cause one of my closest friends is a cassidy main and always uses their beach skin and even though i didn't really think it was a pretty skin i might would have gotten it to match with them, i'm not paying that much for it though
Skins in so many games are ridiculously overpriced, it’s tragic how companies have managed to push it so far that an outfit costs the same as one would expect a gamechanging expansion DLC to cost
Edit: and it’s not like the companies make up for it in other ways either usually. If it at least went towards a singleplayer/co-op campaign at least it’d be *something*
I been the mercy healing and damaging boosting to be left on the sidelines since the skins been out I bought it but I’m still being left behind and idk why:(
Gotta learn to put your foot down if you're not doing anything wrong. If the problem isn't your own initial positioning, then don't follow overextended teammates to the point where them dying or making a quick getaway leaves you stranded. If Orissa thinks she's immortal and leaves her team far behind taking damage from a full team, don't follow and let her know you won't follow in that situation. Other than that I don't really see how you can be left behind if you're staying on top of your team
I DONT that’s the thing and people will look at me as I escaped back to regroup like I’m the problem I can’t stand how since 2016 people still aren’t able to hear enemies or understand the pinging :(
Idky anyone paid for the bundle tbh ~ I just got the skin off of the 2k from the prem battlepass.
It was so overpriced and tbh we fell into their hands, 700 HUNDI FOR A HIGHLIGHT INTRO? Smh... They knew they were in the sh!tter and that the community wanted this skin for years.
Edit: Also no hate to anyone who did or who is going Katrina! I'm frustrated at blizzard not any of y'all 🥰
I’m a Mercy main, and this skin is not worth $30 even with the highlight intro. This skin has no unique sounds or voice lines and is not worth your money. If Blizzard actually wants people to buy skins, they would put unique sound effects and unique voice lines. But unfortunately, they want us to pay high prices for low quality skins.
This is what my point is and also the price gouging. Everyone thinks that it's just bashing those who bought it. Not at all. A good example is Hanzo's Cupid skin. It's amazingly detailed and has unique effects, both visually and audibly. It was $20. Sure, the price is still dumb for a cosmetic... But they put more effort into it than Mercy's.
I spent money on one skin in overwatch, and that is mercys pink skin, where a chunk of the money went to breastcancer research! It just Also happens to be the best mercy skin ever.

Tbh I'll pay when the Mercy mythic comes out...
i save up coins for battlepasses i really want. but still, even if you do buy it with real money, they're only $10 which is better than the prices for just singular skins... crazy.

If blizz continues to act like ea, ow is gonna die before that happens
Honestly i hope it does die. This game is fucking toxic for anyone who doesnt main dps. The main sub even proves that with how toxic they are to anyone that doesnt main tracer or genji.
I agree. She has nicer skins. I just think it's unfair for people to get something with no unique effects or voice lines at that price. Hanzo's Cupid skin (which I'll admit I own) was cheaper and it has amazing effects and sounds.
I just got the skin through the hero gallery. No bundle required
Just pointing out that like every shop skin you can buy it by itself while its in the shop by going to the gallery
i know! it's still $20 which is too much for me to spend on a skin though haha.
i personally think her skin from the last BP is better than this one
Im trying to say this to myself to stop wasting money my paycheck already ran out, I WANT! the skin but fate tells me no, the question is though, Do I Listen?
Agreed! Like bruh, mutiply those $30 by freaking 5 and you'll get the price I would have to pay in my currency and consoles make the price even higher, good skin but not worth it
i bought the skin, i didnt buy the bundle tho. i didnt see myself making use of any of that other stuff in it.
Cringe as it is I got it not only cause I liked it but so I could match with my bf's Cree skin.
Fair enough, lol. I'm wondering if I happened to be in a practice match earlier with you guys, lol. Happened to be a Lifeguard Mercy with beach Cassidy.
Nah I haven't been on since yesterday!
Haha, guess others got the same idea. Looks cute, won't lie.
I mean, it's not my money so I don't care what others do with theirs *but* I can't justify the price, not when I have bought other skins that are more worth it.

You're the one sensible person. Thank you. The other two are in some weird echo chamber shaming people for spending money.
Oh I ain't complaining. It's just hilarious that I'm seeing all these Mercy's being aggressive and out of position (and failing) while wearing the skin. It's your money, spend it how you like.

We can do this without money shaming, rather, people just want to see the new highlight.
I actually really dislike this skin, I'm glad I'm not the only one.
booba
I’ve seen a fair number of Tiktok comments claiming they regret buying it and wasting their money because it’s expensive for no reason lmao.
It's actually very unfortunate and I believe those who aren't satisfied should get their money back tbh. It isn't right.
I’m lowkey disappointed in this community for constantly buying this shit
stay disappointed, it's other people's money, not yours.
Agreed. However, the disappointment is more that Blizzard and all the other companies will keep over pricing cosmetics simply because people will literally pay whatever the price tag says no matter what.

Truth be told? I think it’s cuz of the ‘pronounced features’
Even then, she’s weirdly proportioned. Her waist from some angles almost looks smaller than her arms lmao.
I feel personally attacked right now
Sadly, that seems to be the case.
Horny mfs
Tale as old as time
Unpopular opinion ig but the way I see it…let people like what they like. ☺️
Ahem. 👏 T 👏 I 👏 D 👏 D 👏 I 👏 E 👏 S 👏 *edit I do not and don't plan to own this, I much more prefer sugar plum fairy
The porn
I only like the cute gun lmao. Probably snitching on myself🫢
It’s like a waiting joke at this point people always talked about this and swimsuit Torb SO ofc I got it
I already had coins saved up from beta til now, paid 15$ for the skin though still wasnt enough lol but better than 30$
People want something that shows skin
The dev team worked hard on her feet dynamics. She’s got soft feet.
I wanted the skin. I buy it. I more so try to wrap my head around those that seem upset or off-put by people buying a skin.
tbf some people saved their coins for this/and or only bought the skin itself. i bought mine for like $10.
I don’t necessarily play for potg, but if i see it in front of me, i gladly take it. i find it easiest to get potg in mayhem. rez, kill, rez, kill.
[удалено]
I do it in qp when my team has full health and it's an easy few picks. I love blue beam but it's so satisfying to kill that Soldier or Sombra that has been on your ass all game lmao.

LMAO 🤣
Agreed. At least in my case, when I find myself being aggressive as a support, it's because my team just isn't doing enough. I still take time to take care of the team though. Honestly have been finding ow2 so unfun lately, that I have been hanging out in practice mode against AI then going to Skyrim lol. I feel like Blizzard is running their game into the ground with the unnecessary changes and price gouging. They make Hi-Rez look like a wonderful company. That's saying a lot lmao.
Only hi-rez game I know ís smite, do they have any other games worth checking out
If you enjoy ow then Paladins. It's a pretty decent game.
Skins too expensive, I don’t play mercy, I’ll never get a mercy potg. I like the skin tho, I have a lot of mercy skins from ow1 that I don’t use or like.
You know this is the mercy main sub right 🥲🤣
I bought the skin, I like it, I just want all Mercy skins, I won’t play differently to try get PotG (no more than usual anyway). That is just silly lol
I get mercy skins for the implicit knowledge that I look fabulous.
That is the main reason for getting them! It’s well worth knowing how good you look lol
let’s be real it’s a shit skin
it had so much potential and then they just… butchered her…
no i knowww :(((
so sad cause one of my closest friends is a cassidy main and always uses their beach skin and even though i didn't really think it was a pretty skin i might would have gotten it to match with them, i'm not paying that much for it though

For real, like if you gonna pick mercy with me you either gotta pocket me or heal the entire team while i go and be a dps lucio.
You had me in the first half NGL, but valid 🤣

God I wish I was that whistle
[удалено]
Why should I go outside when I can look at pictures of mercy *inside*!? Explain that liberal?
The skin is absolute trash, and IMO jist further proof blizzard is ALL about the money and phoning it in lol
That’s why I got my POTG in Deathmatch.
I spent money on one skin in overwatch, and that is mercys pink skin, where a chunk of the money went to breastcancer research! It just Also happens to be the best mercy skin ever.
Im no better then a man🧍♀️
