According to a friend of @Portergauge A survey received from Blizzard asked players if they would be willing to pay $44.99 (US$1,621) per purchase of the $9.99 “mythic skin” and Weapon Charm.
Oof, friend of mine got an Overwatch survey for his account, some of these prices they’re gauging for OW2 are really expensive.
I hope this is just him getting one of the higher price surveys and not an indication that they’re leaning towards this much monetization. pic.twitter.com/RWr7LbwkLB

And finally, Blizzard asked if gamers would be willing to pay $24.99 (1,081 baht) to buy a golden Legendary skin and choose Option AC which product pack is the most worthwhile or interesting, such as…
