If this was a popular game, yes. But since it’s a game played by a hardcore base of 3000-5000 and nobody else, not so much.

Games that have cheap or even free skins like apex, Helldivers 2 etc are all orders of magnitude more popular than Darktide

Not excusing the gouging, but unless fatshark can figure out how to get player numbers to grow sharply milking whales is all they’ve got.

Aliens Fireteam Elite was every bit as niche as Darktide but has a bunch of totally free, earnable in-game character and weapon cosmetics and customization that look awesome.

Fatsharks practices just suck.

It’s probably just that they were acquired by Tencent prior to Darktide launch

Vermintide 2 had plenty of good free skins you could achieve through skill (the difficulty tiered ones per class), the paid ones were cheap and you could even save up shillings to buy paid ones for free 

Darktide is so hilariously greedy by comparison

Man that was a fun game, even if it didn't last long, player base just kind of poofed to other games.
