Once you hit middle school, the pressure to “fit in” hits. Naturally, this includes games now.

      I don’t care about skins like, at all. And intentionally leave my characters with whatever the defaults are just to show other people how much I don’t care.

      But definitely in my younger years wanted whatever was the hot thing at the time. I remember at one point it was yo-yos. And the “TalkBack” from Home Alone. And Furby. And Tomagotchi.

      In sea of thieves, the noob skins either mean you’re a total day one noob, or a fucking superpirate who’s flag means death.

      I decided to never make an in game purchase for one of the games I play the most. Only once did some random call me a “poor”, which made me laugh. One the stupider things I’ve heard someone say in that game.
