You answered one question after missing it at the end of my first post. Then again ignored the question in the follow up. I'm aware you're not a tutorial.

I think you missed my point, if you don't know the game that's fine, I have no interest/obligation in helping you understand or answer anything about it, that's what I mean by "not a tutorial", understand now?

That's why I said that it might be an idea to avoid threads about the game or games featuring such free to play economics. Otherwise check wiki/Reddit FAQs about it.

What makes your think I wasn't asking a rhetorical question? Of course the 1000-v-bucks in the bundle, which I said were a dubious value, and $9.99 worth of Fortnite junk, are not going to net the player anything of value. You say: "call it $10 of fortnite junk and baubles if you want to believe that." Junk is a fair appraisal. 

 

Which leaves the exclusive items for the Switch. A cursory glance seems to indicate the PS4 bundle came with with no such items. You speculate they could garner anywhere from 5-100 Euros. A pretty big window. In fact, a 5-100 Euro window is what I would describe, in terms of value, as something that is, idunno, maybe, not to be relied upon. Suspect. Dubious? A dubious value? 5 Euros of added value relative to a $299 USD bundle ( I can't find any info on European prices) is garbage territory. It will be interesting to see how that plays out, in terms of how high the prices will get, as well as the scale of activity. It's certainly not as stable in it's potential resell value as a physical game or download code. The last 2 bundles I bought had actual, tangible value, approaching the $50-60 dollar range, felt immediately, right there, at the till, with no need to mess around with secondary market speculation.

 

As for your suggestion, I have an alternate idea: It might be an idea to avoid threads about the game or games featuring such free to play economics, otherwise you might accidentally quote somebody, type out a paragraph long response, and then have to deal with the obligation of answering one or two questions germane to the topic at hand.
