Also 20$ for cosmetics seems a bit much. I could understand that price point for a new javelin, because of all the gear, abilities and variants that have to be implemented into the game, but I couldn't argue for a purchase if it's "only" a skin. Yep, pretty much my view, they have played a strong transparent game so far (aside of technical issues) with a lot of goodwill building. This is no time to muck that up.
Transparent? ... yes, BUT ... VIP Demo game economy and the GOLD edition are totally different, according to Darrah. That raises alarm bells over here.

It is almost impossible for EA to get something good out of this. If the cosmetic stuff is too easily farmable through playing the game most people won't bother with spending money on it. If it requires hardcore grinding and/or money prices are too high, they get nailed to the cross (and rightfully so).

If it requires hardcore grinding and/or money prices are too high, they get nailed to the cross (and rightfully so). Same scenario I mentioned before. If the cosmetic stiff is easily obtainable in game without buying shards....then nobody will buy shards and thus EA doesnt gain any substantial revenue as they intended. If it takes a large grind....then the game will be bashed.

People buy the most surprising things through microtransactions. A lot of players obviously have way more money than patience.
In Warframe, for example, you can buy basic weapons with microtransactions. Basic weapons that are as easily available as buying the blueprint for a trivial amount of in-game currency and then crafting the weapon for a trivial amount of in-game resources and waiting 12 or 24 hours. (The required in-game credits can be earned with one or two alert missions, about 5 to 10 minutes each, and the standard resources practically pile up on their own.)
And people spend platinum (the currency bought with real money, but also can be traded for with other players) on those weapons every day, despite the fact that the button to buy the blueprint for in-game credits is right next to the "buy with platinum" one.

They’ve been transparent about the difference and acknowledged that actual pricing of cosmetics is something that can change at any time up to release. How is it raising alarm bells? It’s as transparent as they can possibly be.

Heimdall If they had an idea about how to price cosmetic items, and were confident in their decisions, they could have come out by now, or even weeks ago. It is not Bioware's fault that they are under dramatically increased scrutiny regarding MTX because of EA, but it is what it is. EA has been effing up for a loooong time now, so plenty of time to take this fact into consideration and act accordingly.

It’s as transparent as they can possibly be. For some posters, "everything raises alarm bells"...Mark Darrah could fold his hands a different way and they would raise an eyebrow and say "You see..". So, some imbecile breaks NDA, posts placeholders screenshots and the YongYea's of the world get to lead the "AAA games are bad so please contribute to my Patreon" circlejerk. Microtransactions exist so that game developers/publishers can make money and, based on the numbers, it's quite profitable. The MTX in "Anthem" won't be lootboxes, randomized, or "pay-for-power"...I can't get worked up about this.

It's the same thing in every game really. It is very popular right now to lambast Beth and FO76 but you can earn everything just by playing. Sure you won't be able to buy everything. But really is that such a bad thing? On the other hand we will have to pay for something in some fashion if we want the games to keep on coming, if we want the games to be continually developed. I fully support going forward with all content DLCs being free for all so as not be in a situation where you cannot play a certain mission with some players just because they don't have the required DLC. And therefore I am willing to now and then buy something for real money. A support pack or two for POE, a cool looking emote for The Division, a cloche hat for FO76. In the POE forums it is easy to count just how many thousands of dollars some players have supported GGG with. It seems over the top for me but hey, it is their money. And yeah, I will keep supporting BioWare.

And it wouldn't matter because whatever you could make (if) in coins during the demo will not be the same as the live game. They have clearly stated that the economy is totally different.

And that’s fine, but the existence of cosmetic microtransactions is not new information. Nothing about the current “news” is new except for the highly speculative dollar value of the currency.

No, but it'd still be nice to know what you get for your purchase. And the grind / economy balance is part of the game.

I really don’t understand the idea that they haven’t finalized pricing should be seen as a warning sign, that seems like scraping the barrel of reasons to be concerned. Sure, they could mess it up, but all a lack of finalized decision means is that they haven’t finalized a decision. It does not portend what that decision will be.

Either way, the pricing will be visible February 15th to all. We don't know 100% pricing will be visible on the 15th. They could wait to 'fully implement' the cash shop until the release for the scrub population.
And 'the correct pricing' is more than people on forums think. And people spend more as well. And most of these games are doing quite well. Lot of doom and gloom for Fallout 76 but I would guess it is making money.
Warframe crushes it with their microtransactions for everything and everybody pulls Warframes pud all day. Path of Exile appears to be successful.
I'm still sticking with my vote of 20USD ... not because I actually listened to the poll question and voted with what I though was fair but because I voted reality.
Skins 20USD
New Javelins 19.99USD but no way to buy with in game currency, and maybe not even shards. Direct purchase only most likely, maybe also with Shards.

According to some very cursory research, Fortnite skins cost varies depending on the "rarity", ranging from $8 to $20.
I haven't yet heard if vinyls and armor will have a cost range or if all will be the same, however if there is a range it would make sense to be something similar. Maybe $5-8 for a more "average" vinyl, and up to $20 for something like the "N7" vinyl. I would expect vinyls to be usable across all 4 Javelins, although I could be wrong.

That is only 5 levels of hyperbole. I think you need to up those rookie numbers when telling other people what they should with their money. Maybe you can get in an "implore" somewhere? If you think charging $20 for a SKIN or $15 for a FO76 power armor paint job from FO4 isn't an insult, then I really don't know what else to say.
You can do with your money whatever you want but greedy is greedy.
A game like eve online sells a locale for 70 dollars in real world money. People buy it as a sign of status. Believe me when I say the pricing shown here so fAR doesn't scream greed or predatory.

So I didn't play the VIP demo, and can't really comment on this. Were you guys able to get Coin during the demo, and if so, how much from a particular activity? I got like 10 to 20 coins a mission, and all prices were fixed at 25 per cosmetic. This was done on purpose for the demo, so if anythi g the coin drop needs to increase a bit, or maybe it is who can say right now.
