This was taken on my PC using Vesktop client

    So the way that promotion is worded, if I stream “the finals” to a friend for 15 minutes I’m guaranteed to receive that item, shipping paid for and all, like in a quest? Or are they just baiting and entering you in a lottery?

    Seems like an easy way to farm real life merchandise.

        That does make way more sense. Though, the ad makes it seem like a (clothing) set and not a skin, but I’ve never played the finals so I wouldn’t know.

          Most of the “skins” in The Finals are actually clothing sets, each with interchangeable parts.

      Nag it’s just in game items/dlc exclusively for people who stream it over discord, can’t buy it otherwise

      If it were real merch I’d kinda like this

    Vesktop client

    Heh, so you’re halfway there already.
    Find which CSS class this stupid thing uses, hide it and bye bye forever.
    Matter of time until someone makes a plugin to stop the client from fetching new data from these endpoints

    The first time I saw this was yesterday and I thought it was an April fools joke.
