Why would I want to pay [$60] to get a skin that essentially flash bangs me every time I ADS?

Lol, then don't?

Seriously, why pay $60 for a skin? This is like nft's for video games

EDIT: After playing the video posted on Twitter. I can safely say that this is a "Look at me. I'm a dumbass who spent $60 for a skin! EVERYONE LOOK AT ME!"

That's COD skins in a nutshell. Either that or the skin is broken and it's pay to win. If you watch any ranked play from the last game, 90% of people had the Groot skin.

In a way it's even worse. NFT's gave people the illusion that it's an investment. This is just basically a dunce hat
