CS:GO is the only game I've ever bought skins in. CS is an aesthetically static game and you spend hundreds or thousands of hours staring at the same three or four guns that take up 20% of your screen, so it's an easy call to upgrade the scenery. For me it's exactly the same as buying a deskmat/mousepad with a cool design instead of a pure black one. If I'm going to stare at something everyday I want something that I like looking at.

I get the mindset, that's how I felt before in every other game, but I'd consider my $50 of skins money well spent even if no one else could see them.
