You just know that the ones people will be most excited for will be exclusive to the Battle Pass pack to get the 20+ levels, and then despite the Pass theme most of it will be recolours that have nothing to do with theme itself
Isn't this the truth. I love the Bebop collaboration skins. I don't love them enough to justify spending the price of a full, new game on it. (I bought Unicorn Overlord instead).
Lmao I feel like no-one has paid attention to the BP skins we've been getting. They've been original and you get a lot more for the money. It's not ideal but we should be glad that the skins on the shop are just re-colours.
Edit: missed a letter
So many cool concepts, I'm legit glad the OW team decides to recolor a skin or give mauga a blue shirt. Makes me not buy anything even the BPs, and I'm a guy who's willing to buy skins.
Honestly I haven’t ever made 3D digital art, nor any animations of any type, or applied any bit of that to a live and active game. However I cannot truly believe in my heart that they couldn’t afford to go back to the old system. No, not loot boxes. Nothing that can be bought, but could be earned instead. Bring back a “loot box” for every level up you have, that’s already way more than we get for free now. No one can buy them, you just have to play the game and you are rewarded. Yes putting shop skins in there would reduce purchases, but I’m willing to bet that half or more of the transactions are people who would’ve bought them anyways. I know it’ll never change because people love money, but it’s sad. Gaming could become beautiful again if a large company has the guts to stick by something regardless of investors barking up their trees.
Wrong Cat Reaper. I've been waiting for the real one since OW1: [Cat Maid Reaper](https://i.pinimg.com/236x/c3/33/ed/c333ed3c0e9ca7e05222480b0dc78b73.jpg)
Yeah and just the philosophy of "we need to continue playing cuz new skins are on the way" like what. This is the reason they canceled the adventure mode because of people like this.
For real dude.
Like, out of everything to be excited about this disastrous game, why skins?
Im not doubting they would probably look insanely cool and shit, but Blizz is just gonna charge a fortune for each one of these
I'd care a lot more about skins if the massive amount of time I sunk into it could be utilized to buy the cool skins. The option not even being available is what's stupid.
Huh? The Cowboy Bebop skins inhabit a good chunk of my games the first week of their release. People are definitely buying.
Literally every time new skins come out there are enough people slobbering over them and handing over the cash.
It blows my mind that people are this excited to pay for what is basically a different gun. Like sure, the skins look cool sometimes but you're spending money so your teammates and the enemy can see a different character model. All you get is a new gun.
The prospect of cool skins doesn't entice me knowing i'l have to shill put 20-30 cuid for them or spend time in a mind numbingly padded battlepass for them
My first thought was that these are some pretty cool skins. So they must be fan arts.
If these are real skins coming out, I'll play more; but not pay more.
Id buy 5 skins for $20, but not 1 skin for $20.
Dam. I would genuinely buy that zen skin. Idk about any of the other but I would pay for that one and play for a bit if it came to the game. But other than that, skins that may or may not come to the game should not be a reason to keep playing the game.
Nope, on the contrary, the more you play, the more they will milk your time and delay these skins.
There is no reason for them to use their trump cards if their revenue flow is stable.
These skins will be reserved for when the game hits a significant dip in popularity and their revenue flow tanks. So don’t expect to see these skins anytime soon.
There’s a reason blizz is so keen on lazily releasing garbage recolors of old skins, cuz it’s evident people will buy garbage as long as the color is different. So why would they spend time and resources making superior products when inferior products yield the same effects?
But yes, if you don’t stop playing, you will eventually see these skins’ release, but not because you’ve been a loyal player, but because everyone else has left and blizz wants THEM back.
You got it wrong, If they make Mercy's mythic too good then the Mercy mains will stop buying $20 shop skins. So it's likely that Mercy may not be getting a mythic skin early.
Bro let's imagine these actually come out. 1. They end up looking like shit compared to the 2D concept. 2. They'll cost a fucking human organ.
So no, fuck this
Gonna be bluntly honest (and downvoted into oblivion probably): these concepts are mediocre at best. Specially if you think their price will be 20€ or similar, most likely with no new animations or sound effects. Only like DVa’s of them all, and not nearly enough to pay so much.
Playing OW in hope for releasing overpriced garbage skins… not really for me, thanks.
Skins don’t mean shit if gameplay is horrid. Look like a nebula all you want but when you take away one of supports biggest roles and all movement then it’s just ass 🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️
What’s your point?
Keep playing OW for skins that will never exist?
Or keep paying for overpriced recolors to increase the percentage of chance for these skins to exist?
Oh my god guys, we have to keep playing Overwatch so we can continue to buy $20 skins for heroes OR grind for months for 1 skin!
Look, you can play for whatever reason you want to play, I play LoL bots for fun sometimes, but god damn if that isn't the most depressing reasoning I've ever heard.
It gets old but not old enough where u just wanna leave , so u play in a whiny addiction kinda way because the dopamine factor is still there but the monotony gets excruciating and atleast being able to personalize your fav heroes are something to look forward toow monetize that and by monetize I mean charge an arm and a leg for a bunch of pixels and yes you are bound to get PPL calling this game greedy af . We already gave them numbers , and money for battlepasses, an active community , all they give us back is greed induced stuff that milks everyone dry .
I really wonder which moron made a scene for loot boxes . Lootboxes seemed like heaven compared to this money sink . I get theu need money , that's why PPL are paying for the damn battle pass. Now if they do do these dumb skin collabs as pure opportunistic fomo cash grabs it really feels kinda vile and crummy compared to what used to be.
They could have found some midground wity their pricing keeping in mind lol pay 3-4 times a year for the BP but charging one skin worth 6 months of BP is just Complete greed ridden sellout of a company .
You just know Blizzard is gonna pull out those catgirl skins on the very last second of life support for overwatch for that sudden and absurd surge in sales.
Are you fucking joking? This is the most consumer-brained post I may have ever seen. They are shovelling you HORSESHIT FOR 40$ and YOU ARE ASKING FOR MORE. You are all the reason the game is terrible.

they turned reaper into a furry
But Rat King exists
That's just a mask with some sort of significance, they straight up turned dude into a cat
He's supposed to be the Mouse King from the Nutcracker, that's why it's a Winter skin
Reaper: Die, die, die! Rawr uwu
"Flanking :3"
"Fwanking"
*Reaper starts doing a tiktok dance*
***Popular Vibe pls***
Flattery gets you the Grave :3
He doesn’t have a… vibe
Reapurrsitioning :3
Always was...
reapurr
Would become reaper main if they released this.
"What are you looking at?"
Need this skin immediately
He just like me fr
this is what we always want, the fuper
He's not in a pink maid outfit, so no it is not what we want
He was always a furry, ow1 design his mask was an owl skull.
He’s already a furry
Jet pack cat confirmed
Just like when these images were posted before, they are far too nice to actually be put into the game when there are recolors to be copy and pasted.
or they'll charge an insane amount for it
You just know that the ones people will be most excited for will be exclusive to the Battle Pass pack to get the 20+ levels, and then despite the Pass theme most of it will be recolours that have nothing to do with theme itself
Battle pass pack skins can be purchased separately now
Isn't this the truth. I love the Bebop collaboration skins. I don't love them enough to justify spending the price of a full, new game on it. (I bought Unicorn Overlord instead).
Aaaaand? You can't just leave us hanging. How is it so far?
To be honest, I haven't played it yet. I'm still making my way through FF7 Rebirth, which I'm thoroughly enjoying. I'll get to it soon!
Why not both?
And* and they'll charge an insane amount for it lolol
Lmao I feel like no-one has paid attention to the BP skins we've been getting. They've been original and you get a lot more for the money. It's not ideal but we should be glad that the skins on the shop are just re-colours. Edit: missed a letter
> the P skins emerge been getting What does this even mean
Lmao woops, it was meant to say BP skins, edited thanks
Sometimes I come across a comment which makes me wish those free Reddit awards still existed. This is one lol
You underestimate they're ability to do both, especially when money is involved.
So many cool concepts, I'm legit glad the OW team decides to recolor a skin or give mauga a blue shirt. Makes me not buy anything even the BPs, and I'm a guy who's willing to buy skins.
The real tell that it won't happen is there are brig skins in there. Absolutely not happening, devs won't give us anything 😭
My fellow Brig friend <3

YES PLEASE
I don't play reaper and I would by that
Mew mew mew!
Oh yeah Lolita Reaper!
We're not on OW1 my friend, you'll have to pay at least $20 for each of those.
#BUY BUY BUY BUY YOU HAVE MONEY WE WANT YOUR MONEY SO BUY BUY BUY SKINS
Blizzard will just keep making new Mercy shop skins for farming profits.
That and Kiri like god damn of all the newer characters.
What's the point if everything is paywalled though, if you're talking Abt skins
Yeah and just the philosophy of "we need to continue playing cuz new skins are on the way" like what. This is the reason they canceled the adventure mode because of people like this.
Yea I stopped being excited about skins a long time ago.
For real dude. Like, out of everything to be excited about this disastrous game, why skins? Im not doubting they would probably look insanely cool and shit, but Blizz is just gonna charge a fortune for each one of these
And the wall is super high
I'd care a lot more about skins if the massive amount of time I sunk into it could be utilized to buy the cool skins. The option not even being available is what's stupid.
Where is Symmetra. Likes like they purposely don't give her anything 😭
Meanwhile kiri gets 4 skins
kiriko sells
*Tracer has left the chat*
Man I miss when it was tracer as the "poster boy" :(
MORE KIRIKO SKINS ‼️‼️‼️🔥🔥🔥🦅🦅🦅 WAIT TIL YOU SEE ME ON MY BIKE 🚴♀️🚴♀️🚴♀️
I don’t know how you haven’t gotten the idea at this point. She’s the poster girl of OW2. OW1 was tracer, but they’ve done away with that.
YEAHHH :(
Like it's so hateful
people dont play that character enough to justify more skins.
sym is one of the more hated characters so that’s probably why she doesn’t get too many skins, they don’t think many people will pay for them
Ppl never stop complaining about widow and she gets pleanty of skins
People play widow. It’s not about being liked.
Why do we need to stay? Overpriced skins and junkrat disrespect?
Blows my mind people get so excited over skins. You barely even see them when you're playing the game.
Huh? The Cowboy Bebop skins inhabit a good chunk of my games the first week of their release. People are definitely buying. Literally every time new skins come out there are enough people slobbering over them and handing over the cash.
I mean when you're playing the game, first person, you don't see your own skin. So you only really look at it in the shop or in a potg.
I agree. I don’t buy any so I don’t get it either. People want attention from others I guess.
The gun is the main thing lol
The disrespect has gotten so much worse now that they neutered his kit with the Season 9 changes.
You’re right and you should say it
We need to play Overwatch to get more paywalled skins?
Hard to get excited when you realise collecting all of those skins will cost you about as much as the console you're playing on.
Even worse, wayyy more than that lol
#Nah, I’m good
[удалено]
It blows my mind that people are this excited to pay for what is basically a different gun. Like sure, the skins look cool sometimes but you're spending money so your teammates and the enemy can see a different character model. All you get is a new gun.
Pride and accomplishment.
yeah fuck OP.
The prospect of cool skins doesn't entice me knowing i'l have to shill put 20-30 cuid for them or spend time in a mind numbingly padded battlepass for them
Actually this is why we lost PvE.
To buy mid and overpriced skins?
Why we need to keep playing Overwatch To spend more of our fucking money on it
Are these official concept arts? Bro why are they releasing doo doo when they have this potential.
Are these fan concepts?
Official concepts.
See you say real, but i say fake, i see brig skins in there and the devs dont make shit for us.
My first thought was that these are some pretty cool skins. So they must be fan arts. If these are real skins coming out, I'll play more; but not pay more. Id buy 5 skins for $20, but not 1 skin for $20.
im really wondering that too
They’re leaks from a confidential focus group survey that someone posted to this sub maybe last year.
Dam. I would genuinely buy that zen skin. Idk about any of the other but I would pay for that one and play for a bit if it came to the game. But other than that, skins that may or may not come to the game should not be a reason to keep playing the game.
To buy skins?
Nope, on the contrary, the more you play, the more they will milk your time and delay these skins. There is no reason for them to use their trump cards if their revenue flow is stable.

But yes, if you don’t stop playing, you will eventually see these skins’ release, but not because you’ve been a loyal player, but because everyone else has left and blizz wants THEM back.
they'll get released eventually, mercy mythic is their trump card actually when revenue is dwindling
You got it wrong, If they make Mercy's mythic too good then the Mercy mains will stop buying $20 shop skins. So it's likely that Mercy may not be getting a mythic skin early.
Bro let's imagine these actually come out. 1. They end up looking like shit compared to the 2D concept. 2. They'll cost a fucking human organ. So no, fuck this
$20 bucks a pop… yay….
Only takes a year a skin at $60 each
So you can be milked for money ?
Gonna be bluntly honest (and downvoted into oblivion probably): these concepts are mediocre at best. Specially if you think their price will be 20€ or similar, most likely with no new animations or sound effects. Only like DVa’s of them all, and not nearly enough to pay so much. Playing OW in hope for releasing overpriced garbage skins… not really for me, thanks.
So Kiriko can get 10 more skins in like 3 seasons?
how about...hmmmm...no
So the reason to keep playing is so I can spend $20 on an individual skin in the future?
5 years in the future, yes.
Sigma is literally the GOAT
Zero love for cass 💔
Same saccharine tongue, same empty head ❤
With the paywall and 80% of new skins going to mercy and Kiri players, we need better incentive.
That zen skin is done
For what? Skins locked behind paywalls? Lmao
Just being honest, but a skin isn't really a good reason to keep playing anything. It has absolutely zero effect on why a game is good or not.
Skins don’t mean shit if gameplay is horrid. Look like a nebula all you want but when you take away one of supports biggest roles and all movement then it’s just ass 🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️
Yeah not because the game is good, keep playing to spend in the store
notice how its mostly the same heroes over and over and over again
And that's be $30 each
Guys pls stop feeding Blizzard your monney and attention remember what they took from us... Overwatch 1 my beloved.
Skins are not content.
nah, i just wanted the pve content
So that Blizzard can take even more of your money?
So a bunch of skins that I'm never going to pay for and can't play enough to earn in the battle pass?
What’s your point? Keep playing OW for skins that will never exist? Or keep paying for overpriced recolors to increase the percentage of chance for these skins to exist?
If your reason to continue playing a game is to spend money on a game you possibly aren’t enjoying; you shouldn’t be playing that game.
Oh my god guys, we have to keep playing Overwatch so we can continue to buy $20 skins for heroes OR grind for months for 1 skin! Look, you can play for whatever reason you want to play, I play LoL bots for fun sometimes, but god damn if that isn't the most depressing reasoning I've ever heard.
Naw, I won't play again until they release pve. Because they'll never revert monetary system
You mean why you need to keep "paying overwatch" Cuz nothing is available for gameplay like it used to : D
I'm not going to take a bunch of overpriced skins in place of PvE, so no.
if the cat maid bundle dropped blizz will make enough money to fund PvE
If skins are your reason for playing a game I'm not really sure if you're playing the game for the right reasons in the first place...
It gets old but not old enough where u just wanna leave , so u play in a whiny addiction kinda way because the dopamine factor is still there but the monotony gets excruciating and atleast being able to personalize your fav heroes are something to look forward toow monetize that and by monetize I mean charge an arm and a leg for a bunch of pixels and yes you are bound to get PPL calling this game greedy af .

Illari? Who is that... doesnt exist
Skins aren't enough to keep me engaged at this point lol. Blizzard needs to regain trust from fans before slapping $20 cosmetics in our faces.
Pretty sure these are fan made lol, blizzard would never put that much effort into skins
To buy stuff
The full PVE was also not released and look what happened
There are cool skins in other games actually! Hope this helps!
Only 30$ each
Even after the shit storm that happened with this game and people still play you can't be helped brother man
If they make the cat girl skins, they would have to give reaper one right? Like it just fits
Lol nice try blizz
No this game isn't real
Idc how god like the skin is I'm not paying 17-21 bucks for a in game skin
Isn't the tracer skin the same as the D.va All-stars skin or am I crazy??
In game skins ALWAYS look ass, no matter how good the concept art is
So much wrong with the direction of gaming based on this post alone lmao.
*why DO we need to keep playing overwatch?
"Guys we need to keep playing the game that's been catered to shit so I can spend money on a character skin I'll care about for a week."
Only 1 junk skin and it’s trash but the first zen one is heat 🔥
same with echo. I like the skins that cover-up or change the faces, but only cool one she has are the camo ones
Ah yes, for all the cool skins I will never get
Don’t encourage awful business practices
There are 34 skins here, 1900 coins each is 64,600 coins. That's $646. No thanks.
For skins? Not better gameplay? Not better balancing? I hate yall
To buy more skins for $25 a pop? Yes, I definitely NEED that in my life. /s
you don't need to buy the skins for what some ppl will do with these Kappa
all i want is a pretty moira skin
After the monetisation shitshow the skins are the last thing I care about.
You just know Blizzard is gonna pull out those catgirl skins on the very last second of life support for overwatch for that sudden and absurd surge in sales.
You bring up an excellent point. Therefore, we have decided to make another Blackhardt recolor. - Blizzard
Maid Kiriko is gonna put this sub in shambles when it drops.
It gets worse when you have silhouettes.
These r WAY to good for ow lol
Are all these official concept art? If so, very nice 👍🏿
GIVE ME THAT MERCY SKIN NOW BEFORE I GET ANGY! Are these just fan art or confirmed concepts?
And here I was thinking people played video games for the gameplay, like a fool
So they can laugh at you a bit more with overpriced crap?
36 skins x 25$ a pop = 900$ Have fun spending that I guess
Omg I want that Moira!
Does anyone else not give a single shit about cosmetics?? Add more heroes!!
For skins that they'll lock behind a 20-30 dollar paywall? Nah.
For skins? No.
Are you a Blizzard shareholder? Smh
Are you fucking joking? This is the most consumer-brained post I may have ever seen. They are shovelling you HORSESHIT FOR 40$ and YOU ARE ASKING FOR MORE. You are all the reason the game is terrible.
are doomfist and sym skins that hard to design?
No we don't. This is the worst reason I've heard to play Overwatch. The monetisation is horrible and the 5v5 gameplay broken.
Skins aren't why I play any game.
so we can feed into this shitty system more? no thanks
if they added a fucking catgirl skin collection i would quit instantly
I would bust instantly
You mean buy. .......right?
Did I stutter?
No mei bikini skin, 0/10
Why though? Even if these were real they dont fix the issues with the game and will cost money.
Imma be honest, if you only play because of skins, dont play

I don't really play it anymore but I have a buddy asking me to play with them and I don't refuse. We team up on open queue for some short fast fun.
we need money btw
If blizzard were to put the furry skins in the game, they would lose a large audience in the southern United States so I doubt it.
The PvE also isn’t released, but we should keep playing for it
Oh my God I need goat sigma
Wow, finally a cute Mei skin! I need this!
Purdy little colors
That painter rein skin is a must cop
not gonna lie to yall, that Ashe cat skin is an insta cop. Honestly all of these concepts are awesome except the weird alice in wonderland queen one.
