    So... does Tracer get a giant dragon head skin?

    Because that'd be awesome.

    That looked like a potg/highlight intro, her new costume that mostly black outfit with the fancy detailing

    DVa bow from inside her mech!

    Roadhog's hook is now a... claw? That's pretty awesome.

    I think it's supposed to be a rake.

    That would make more sense, considering the Journey to the West character.

    Just got done browsing through all the new content myself, and man most of it is fucking awesome.

    Dragon head Tracer is a highlight intro and is super awesome, and Mei's alt-color legendary skin is cool as hell. I wasn't feeling the red, but this one is white and pink and looks great. And Zenyatta's and Winston's new skins are beyond awesome. I think Winston's blows his Yeti skin out of the water, personally.

    oh cool you're going to just be really shitty to me for daring to be frustrated with a predatory DLC model.

    Fuck you too, I guess.

    You (I think it's you, anyway) seem to bring this up literally every time another event rolls around. You voice the same complaint, everyone who agrees or disagrees throws out the same arguments for 10-20 pages, nothing of value is gained. Plus, now that you can buy event costumes with in-game currency (which yes, we all know is not easy to come by) makes this complaint of 'I can't get the exact video game thing I want in exactly the way I want to get it', honestly, kind of entitled and insignificant. If it really bothers you that much, take it up with the devs. We can't do anything about it, and in the meantime the pointless arguing about it drags down an otherwise fun thread about a neat video game.

    I think you're mistaking me for someone else.

    It's not the first time I've mentioned it ever but I've never been in a big argument about it with anyone on the forums.

    I am allowed to express my opinion and no me saying "I think this is a shitty thing" doesn't really merit being talked down to.

    And the idea that we shouldn't complain about something we don't like if the devs aren't around is pretty silly. This is a forum. I am allowed to express a negative opinion about a game as much as you are allowed to do the opposite. And my opinions aren't any more "insignificant" than yours.

    But yo thanks for dragging my name through the mud and getting people to agree-dogpile me over something I didn't even do.

    You've gotta have the cool gear during the event tho

    I'll get my free box and the 3 from the arcade, plus any from XP during that, then I'll get one more box.

    If I don't have the D.Va skin by then, I'm just buying it.

    I wish I could buy loot boxes or credits with CP. I'd rather have that than more gold weapons.

    The hero balance changes.

    Mostly stuff we already knew.

    One thing I think is interesting is that Lucio can now wallride backwards. I didn't here much talk about that and it'll make using his wallride so much easier.

    That's the downside to events all being tied to holidays or similar things like the Olympics.

    A good chunk of the skins look out of place once we get some distance from the event.

    Like, it's gonna feel weird playing as Santa Lucio in Spring.

    I feel like if a skin can't hold its own outside the event

    it is not a skin worth worrying over

    Winston is always going to look cool as a yeti. Junkrat is always going to look cool as Frankenstein.

    Heck Tracer is one of my mains and I haven't changed off the sprinter skin since I got it because it's so good

    The more events we have, the more surprised I am that Blizzard let us buy the event items. I am weak and I would definitely have bought an 11 box pack at the start of every event, like I did for Summer.

    I wonder if they'll ever have premium event boxes. Like have boxes that have 4 event items in them and no dupes, but you can only buy them.

    I understand your opinion, but disagree with it. If it wasn't you, as seems to be the case, I'm sorry for my mistake. That being said, I didn't 'drag your name through the mud' and I didn't 'get' anyone to do anything. You might be letting this affect you more than it should. But I'm not really interested in talking about blind boxes or how mad people get at them, so that's about it from me on that topic.
