Petty? I purchased something for a very specific reason and now that reason is gone.. Am i not allowed to not like that? am i not allowed to give feedback on it? is that entirely selfish of me as a Consumer to say something when the product that i payed for is no longer what i payed for?

Yes, petty is just the word for it. You are literally crying about GGG giving a more appropiate name to an MTX that was released five years ago.

The spectres don't look different.
The animations don't look different.
The only thing that changed was the label on it.

Do you judge books by its cover? Because you very much sound like such a person.

To add to that: the actual Stygian MTX-line looks much different. Ebony is more in line with how the spectres look like.

And by the way: I also own that MTX and fuck no I don't care how it's called. They look cool, case closed.

I am a really wierd dude and the things i care about and how i go about things don't generally mesh super well with your average person.

I said in an earlier post exactly why this was so important to me..

The name of the skin was important to me because it makes me feel like i have obtained their power and when im running around the world it pleases me a great deal to have that feeling.

The issue has been resolved and no i didn't get any "free" crap in fact im fairly sure i lost some points but i am happy as i now have that feeling back.

So maybe to you or others it might look stupid but it was important to me and now not only am i happy but my faith in GGG is stronger than it has ever been, If and when i do have spare cash again i'll be spending some of it on this game again.

Look, I didn't judge your "being weird" in your reasons to purchase anything, that's totally up to you. For all I care, you could buy everything in the store that has a number 2 in it, more power to you.

It just struck me as a little... let's say unorthodox to no longer want an effect you've used and liked for years (I guess?) prior to its name being changed. Also, the way your opening post was written seems a little like you're trying to make it seem like GGG did something to you here, when they didn't do anything wrong.

You're asking a favour, which I guess was granted, so I'm happy for you. :)

I'm weird too btw. I have more than a 100 Weta pets that I use to carpet a room in my hideout. :)

I hope i didn't come off as angry at anyone here, yeah i was a little upset about the way the mtx addition was handled and part of why i made this thread is because i've brought this up before on what might happen if they did this.

I will admit i did not feel good writing the OP as i've been collecting data to make a really positive thank you and feedback post to GGG due to some recent changes they have made that have given new life to this game for me.

In the future i hope they consider these changes and perhaps come up with a solution such as allowing people who have skin that was then upgraded to pay the difference consuming their old skin and upgrading to the new one somewhat similar to how those sets from the boxes work.

Anyway <3 GGG, take my money if i ever have any spare xD!

Wait hang on a second so... it wasn't about the name then? You wanted the new Stygian look... but that came out just now... and you had the now Ebony one for probably years, right?

You call it an upgrade, but it's an entirely different effect, mate. You saying "oh, well I wanted the blue one" doesn't hold up if it didn't even exist when you bought the original.

I'm... huh??

No, I really did just want the name, i cant see these damn things 90% of the time anyway.. If they had called it stygian lord or something and left the original alone i might've gone "squints eyes.. Touche GGG" and carried on with my existence.

The whole upgrade thing was just a thought on how GGG could potentially handle this with other MTX in the future.

But... but you... you don't see the... name either...? I don't... huh... okay. :D
Whatever floats your boat man, I'm glad they helped you.

The upgrade doesn't fly though, because it's not an upgrade of any kind. It's a different effect entirely. The name should have changed when Stygian armour set came out. It made no sense from that point onward to keep the name of the old Spectre effect that had nothing visually in common with any Stygian effect since.

May I suggest that you send whoever helped you with this some flowers?
But don't send real ones... of course with current crisis... take a picture and send an e-mail. It's the thought that counts. Be nice. ;)
