    Is it the same type of cash shop they tried in Diablo 3 at first or something else?

      @Magusbear No, it’s the ‘standard’ cash shop that’s in every game now - overpriced cosmetic bundles.

      Super disappointed by it. I get that it’s just cosmetic, but it feels really scummy to have purchasable cosmetics in a $70 game. Just makes me feel as though that content got ripped out of the base game to be sold.

        Bad enough. Looking cool is half the fun.

          @Magusbear Agreed. It’s really sad that the whole ‘Pay Us to Look Cool™’ thing has become the standard over the last few years.

          Call me old fashioned, but I would vastly prefer the older model of selling full-priced DLC expansions every year or two. At least then it didn’t feel like development time was wasted on feeding a cash shop.

            I’m right with you. I’m a huge fan of the whole souls (games) fashion thing and usually prefer cool armour over stat bonuses (if the game doesn’t become impossibly hard because of it).

            Yes, content DLCs are my preference as well. I can understand cosmetic shops in free to play games though. I don’t necessarily like them, but they at least make sense to me, but not in full priced games.
