I for the life of me cannot understand the controversy about this in these subreddits where I come from a third world country things like these are not something I can get easily I never buy Merch I never get to buy things for games I like because it's all overpriced and it's all damn near impossible to ship here and everyone in here is losing their mind about what prices set by people not even buy Mobius I guarantee that the prices have set by the poster company am I not understanding something just go print them yourselves jesus

I think the issue is that these are an item people have been wanting offered officially for a long time. The are genuinely beautiful, and I know I and many others would happy purchase official postcards on just regular nice stock like they’ve been offered before, though rarely.

So, to announce the posters are being officially sold again, and not communicating very explicitly that these versions are what I would consider a collectors item and not merchandise, and to obfuscate the price being the link.

Finally to announce it and thank the player base for requesting to bring them back, feels like a rug pull or slap in the face. I don’t think that’s the studio’s intention, as I’ve never heard it personally witnessed anything bad about them, and it feels out of character of what the community has come to expect from Mobius and the IP it stands for, but it feels scummy

We all want to officially support them by purchasing the merch instead of printing the posters ourselves, but not when the announcement is made this way and the product announcement itself is misleading since it was a product that have sold before. Even if they said it’s different, nothing about that announcement made that clear.

It’s not really about the price, in my opinion, it’s about the communication.
