This move raises concerns about the long-term value of skins and the integrity of the market. While some players welcome the change for greater accessibility, others lament the dilution of rarity. - The value proposition of investing in skins is now questionable. - The update could lead to a flood of similar items, affecting demand. Overall, this shift marks a pivotal moment for the game's economy, with potential long-lasting effects.
