New Microtransaction Skins!

this is the first time i regret there is no "down-vote" button here. shield is somewhat OK, but everything else...

ps: inb4 unicorns and pony in wraeclast

the shield looks kind of fitting but all other skins are somewhat "out of poe" style i can't really find the right words to describe it.

i'm sure asian mmo style stuff is liked by the communities there but let them invade the main game isn't a good idea.

i'm disappointed about this decision.

They're too cartoonish IMO, with those horns and glowing eyes.

Glowing eyes, and horns are part of many of GGG's MTX models...

The difference between Path Of Exile art and say, World Of Warcraft art, is nearly palpable.

Notice he said *style*, and wasn't arguing against the validity of the concepts.

Recently our Thai community (on the Garena servers) designed some new microtransactions as part of a promotion they were running. Today we're releasing these skins to our community too!

Nice shield and helm and im going need some loan....

Wow GGG you guys have really lost your edge... its not gritty and cool anymore, just like any other mmo gear/weapon.

my first thought exactly, the mtx skins just doesnt say Path of Exile to me. It's one of the reasons why I play solo, cant stand looking at everyones glowing character skins and wings...

Does not fit at all into the game...

I don't want to be a jerk but... Was the creative team drunk or something? These are hideous....(especially ridiculous to put such a price tag on such ugly things. Really whoever buys them even for the third of this price has more money than taste)

GGG didn't design these, L2ReadingComprehension

Good stuff!
