I would never buy it though.

If people are getting upset about it, they should take a moment and think it about it. Nothing wrong with spending money on online clothing, but at the end of the day how much does it matter?

Hm, yeah. It's just such a new option still, it's like a fresh wound so right now the set feels kind of like someones spreading salt in it. Sucks, but it'll heal.

Never? Not even if they change the amount of credits you get with it? o;

THAT is true. I've often wondered if it's worth it to spend thousands upon thousands for something that you will never physically be able to hold or even touch. It's probably not in the long run, but temporary it is.

Can we just compare how 96 euro a nintendo 2ds is on which you can play a plenty of games with great content. Just comparing it becausw both has to do with pixel.

what about if you buy chocolate. it's a lot more temporary than buying cr on VP. (for me at least, chocolate lasts me like 10mins tops

)

i mean i would never spend it and i don't think a lot of users are like i see maybe 5 people buying it
i just hope that with the extra money they get, they can update the site a little bit, like newer games/fix game glitches, hopefully the app will be decent. idk how much is just laziness on admins part and not on paying someone to do it though lol

I'm fine with there being 96€ cr set option, there's a lot of websites that have even more expensive sets on sale. But i think Kaj should improve the website (which i think is finally happening, the translating was excellent example) to be even better so putting 96€ here would be worth it.

But i think 1 set for the last option is not enough, there should be at least 3 sets coming on your way if you put 96€ to the cr set week.

I partially agree. Like I want Kaj to upgrade the 48 euro one before putting an entire new option up, like just 3k would be enough and that's just 500-600cr more than what it is now. The 96 euro one would be worth it if they made it worth it, right now they just x2 of the 48 euro one. When the 48 euro one isn't worth it, the 96 euro one sure as hell won't be either.

also i think what people are constantly forgetting is that

you get
the set
for free

ok

it's a free set

you pay for the cr just like every other week of the month. just this one week you get extra sets for free

All true,,, but is it worth it to buy credits when there are not free sets though?
For me, the sets make it worth it, so if there were more sets in the 96 euro one, i MIGHT have considered it. It's just a preference thing I guess.

no but like i met this old lady in the train once and she spends like a couple euros every week buying lives on candy crush. a lot of ppl will say that's a waste of money because you can ask those lives for free, but she was like "I used to buy puzzle booklets every week because i like puzzles. Now i buy candy crush lives every week because it's another puzzle that I like"
and it makes sense? like at the end of the day you're paying for your own entertainment. almost everything you do for fun/in ur spare time costs money. like what hobby is free let's be honest

i always wonder how many people actually buy cr on non mega set weeks because from what i can tell most people wait?

Remember the times when Kaj gave out sets randomly, so you had to buy a pack without knowing if you get something in the end of the week ahahaha

I think people make a too big deal out of it. It's pixel, there is other stuff you have to worry about. If you can afford it, nice, go for it. If not you shouldn't cry about it.

Well, not everyone have that opinion and find VP more of a comfort place to come to, so it can be quite a shock to have something so nice out of reach. Though, I agree. but i already cried, can't take back the tears now

Yeah but the people on this site should comfort you and not the pixel itself. It's not that important to own everything. In my opinion people on here are quite greedy. On gSm no one was able to own everything they wanted to and here a lot of people almost do. I think the fun is higher if you have some stuff you can't reach. Maybe you'll get something you thought you would never get, that's a lot more satisfying in my opinion.

Hm. I love all these comments, making me realize stuff I never did realize until now. The only bad thing about the 'items you can never have, but get and it's satisfying' there are a lot of those. Like my wish list is stuffed with items I'm not sure I will ever get, so the list keeps piling up when there are stuff coming out that's out of my reach.

If not for that, you have a point, a good one.
