Well from what I see, I can tell you that we think in the same way, so yeah no Items will be sold in the shop, it will be purely cosmetic.
The skins that will be accessible in the game won't be horrible in order to drive people to the shop.
Those candy canes, pony mounts, and stuff don't look good for sure in a fantasy medieval game.
Thx :___ )
(no unicorn candy cane mounts please... XDDDDDDD)
