Radianite

If you lack radianite to upgrade your skins - you have too many skins.
It is a good system, it always was and it is crazy to me that seemingly the opposite is a common opinion among people.
You might have problems with pricing in general, the skin system in general, but picking on radianite is just wrong.
Am I not seeing something here?

I don't see how paying for the upgrade of a skin you already bought is a good system

at the very least make it so you can turn kingdom credits into radianite or smth, or even better say if you buy a skin from a featured bundle it'll come fully upgraded
ideally just remove the whole concept but they won't because it makes them money

If I’m buying the liscence for something, then I’m expecting to not pay extra for that thing.

That's the entire point of it. You are not paying for it. Only people who buy absurd amounts of skins pay for it.
It is a sort of tax on rich and i'm all for it.

They should add radianite with skin bundle purchases smh, like seriously unless you are crazy rich theres no way u spend any money for radianite.

They advertise the skins at their max tier but sell it to you at its worst tier tell me why someone might not feel cheated. Yes most people have radianite by the time they buy their first skin but its still frustrating when you run out of radianite and you really want a skin.

Aren't skins in the shop displayed at their base unupgraded state?
There is even specifically filmed preview for every upgrade level and you 100% see what you buy and how much it costs?

In all social media advertisements its always showcased on its max tier, yes they are at the base tier in the shop but its still frustrating to wait and grind allat XP just to get the product you initially wanted, especially for someone who has a job and gets to play only a few hours a day.

paying for the upgrade of a skin

You are only paying for it if you buy crazy amounts of skins.
There is basically a threshold before which you pay less, and after which you pay more. Why is it bad for people who buy ltitle amount of skins to pay less for it?

I can get your point but still, it’s basically like buying a car but still having to buy a motor, it’s morally wrong. There are not additional advantages.

i got 710 Radianite

Im coming up on 700 radianite

Bruh you a riot employee or something
Stop defending those greedy mfs

The only reason radianite exists, is so you buy the battlepass.

why would there even be a need for a "tax on rich" in val. its a videogame and the skins dont even grant a competitive advantage??

this is pure bs, if you don't buy battle passes and don't complete the entire battle pass, you barely get any

If in real life, for the first 10 cars 1 person buys the motor is given for free and for the all next cars the motor needs to be paid for - there IS advantage for the person who buys less.

I just like the idea of people having to pay less for their first car and their first skin at expense of those who buy absurd amounts of cars and absurd amounts of skins

it’d be a good system if the skins weren’t already expensive as bitch

Then it's not equal, we are in a video game, not real life, so no one gets more advantage, there is no tax the rich, I want my car, it better have a motor, I'm not gonna wait for my pockets to fill to be able to pay it nor wait for someone to pay for it ? Like yeah someone pay for my motor, but I genuinely don't care ? I just want to buy my car with my motor

It HAS the motor, you just get it for free. What do you mean you do not care if the company that sold you the car paid for your motor instead of you? You do not want to get the same product for less money?

What would you rather get: a Prime Vandal skin for 1775 VP that you have to upgrade for free or Prime Vandal skin for lets say 2500 VP that is already upgraded?

A prime vandal at 1775 upgraded instantly. It's that easy...

ye bro, same, agree 100%
but that's not an option sadly

this might be the most braindead take on the site

Slightly agreed on the first statement
rest is jst pure bs, the radianite system is no where near a good system, kingdom credits exist and they could just make kingdom creds ---> radianite trade possible and encouraging ppl to play the game in the process

OP is one of those brokies with brokie mindset “tax the rich”

Just self exposing that you have no desire / can’t see yourself being rich.
