I’m just curious if it was intended. But seems like quite many people agree that the incinerator felt off the mark in being the top tier design.

i never understood why a character in the game world would walk around with such a ridiculous back attachment. it would just get stuck on everything and be too bulky. it also looks dumb.

Perhaps intentionally. GGG might be using a similar model as what many cell service and ISP operators do - rather than enticing customers to buy the most expensive package, they know that folks will try to search for the best 'deal' and so they deliberately design all their packages to steer people towards the supposed 'value' package (usually found around the middle of the price range). Basically, these companies know full well that most people aren't going to buy the top tier pack due to the enormous price, so they manipulate people into buying the middle pack by making it seem like such a great 'deal' relative to the packs around it - thereby reducing the number of people who would've just bought the lowest / basic tier pack otherwise. Btw, the way mobile games do this is even more blatant - they often pretty much advertise the preferred package they want you to buy by writing it in BIG BOLD TEXT and a bigger box.

The Annihilator pack is perfectly placed for this - it's right smack dab in the middle. It also features an alternate helmet attachment and an alternate glove skin, which isn't present in the lower tier packs. It's also the first of the packs to offer a weapon skin (as opposed to only a weapon effect for the lower tier packs) as well as the first to offer physical merchandise. The next higher tier pack - Ravager - only ups on this by offering a hoodie, which imo isn't very compelling since you can get a shirt at the Annihilator level. The Incinerator pack is where a more meaningful difference lies, with the Tarot Card pack, but it's also 3 times the cost.
