F2P Σίγμα Posted October 29, 2021 Posted October 29, 2021 Am I the only one who thinks that Ominous stare, viridescent peeper and eyes of molten look way more spooky, sinister generally better than amaranthine, the ooze, and stare from beyond? Also, will this year's Halloween effects seen a similar rise in value (especially the new pumpkin moon effect) like the old Halloween effects?
Trigger_ Posted October 29, 2021 Posted October 29, 2021 Ominous stare, viridescent peeper and eyes of molten = Wet fart amaranthine, the ooze, and stare from beyond = dry fart

Vincentius Posted October 29, 2021 Posted October 29, 2021 the new eye effects are just a chinese ripoff, shame that 0 effort effects that are just copies get added to the game

n_n Posted October 29, 2021 Posted October 29, 2021 They do look good but Eyes of Molten is too red in my opinion (team coloured). I mentioned to the creator a while ago but nothing was done about it.
Keks Posted October 29, 2021 Posted October 29, 2021 i do prefer the newer eye effects but its really just a better ripoff
medio Posted October 30, 2021 Posted October 30, 2021 I mean most of the effects this year were rip-offs of old effects. The 3 clouds are literally just the 2014 clouds but a little more detailed The 3 floating ghosts are just the bat effects but with ghosts and little/no trail, their movements are very similar. Pumpkin Moon is just yet another "moon behind a cloud" effect etc
Xorfizz Posted October 30, 2021 Posted October 30, 2021 Yeah, the old eye clouds were alright, but I personally much prefer the new ones. As for their value, well, don't count on them rising as drastically as the old-school effects. They aren't nearly as rare. Specific hats might be able to fetch a pretty penny, though. I managed to get 300 pure for my (currently) 1 of 1 Eyes of Molten Nasty Norsemann.
Fr3unen Posted October 30, 2021 Posted October 30, 2021 The old fart clouds are just overhyped effects and purely an investment project at this point. However I do agree that most new effects are a bit lackluster when it comes to creativity, but Valve are the ones picking them so what can you do.
purple person Posted October 30, 2021 Posted October 30, 2021 would be cool if one day all private inventories were set to public due to a glitch, then we could see how "rare" these old halloween effects truly are. as I can guarantee most of them are just left in a private inventory to make them seem rarer

Saying that most are in private accounts for these old effects would just be silly, especially since no one knew they would go up in value this much.
N.J Posted October 30, 2021 Posted October 30, 2021 They're really just rip offs, I much prefer the colours of the older 3, the new green one in particular is really disgusting.

I mean there are just so many examples

mcextraTTV Posted October 30, 2021 Posted October 30, 2021 New versions are darker, which in my opinion, make it a bit though to pair with some purple / green combos.

That is accurate and actually funny And, yes I can agree new eye effects look awesome, they remind me of Auditor from Madness Combat And I honestly think they might rise in price over time as well as pumpkin moon, but only on hats from cases that are not Crimson Cache #133
MailDaemon Posted October 30, 2021 Posted October 30, 2021 Spookier? Maybe. Personally, I don't think they look as cool though
h21 Posted October 31, 2021 Posted October 31, 2021 old eyes are better, the matted and duller colors match tf2 style

TheAilingSword Posted October 31, 2021 Posted October 31, 2021 I mean they look good but I LOVE my stare from beyond bone dome. I will say that I hate the arcana/spellbound and the demonflame/hellfire effects, they are worth so much but they are just recycled assets, and they don't even look that good. Bonzo, to a degree, also is but he's actually really cool. But I like basically all of the other halloween effects. (Except for 2020, those were ass.)
