why do people spend so much on Fortnite skins?
This varies by nation and tradition. I grew up in a small Slavic country where clothes, phones, and cars signaled wealth. You won't understand how someone earning 300-400 euros borrows money just to buy a fancy Galaxy S9+ or expensive jeans for status. Then I relocated to Ireland, where things are quite different. Locals often prioritize having an Instagram-friendly phone over practicality. Need fresh pants? Head to Penneys and spend just 10 euros—done.
Around my age group, teens tend to be the ones who purchase skins. Their developing frontal lobes might mean they don’t fully grasp the worth of money or how spending on skins could affect other priorities. It’s not meant to be taken seriously—it’s just about the clout crowd.
I know why folks purchase skins and emotes, but honestly, personally I find it quite unreasonable. For just a small fee, it might make sense, but given the current prices, you could avoid several buys and still get a full new game for the cost! It feels like a huge waste to pay for the "privilege" of changing your character's appearance.
In CSGO skins, new items and designs are constantly being released.
