Just visited the office for the first time because anniversary. The place is horrible, why anyone would PAY to be able to spend time in a corporate environment like that really is beyond me lol (sh.itjust.works)

Do people really spend money on a cape to access this place???

It was giving me anxiety from the second I walked through the door, but then I accidentally clicked a thing that started a video on all the screens, and it was like something out of a nightmare, I had to get out of there 😂😂

I've never looked at it that way, imagine playing a game set in a magical world and paying for the chance to go back to a grey and depressing mundane office -_-

But on another note, now that I think about it, the cape has some stuff that for some might make it worth paying for:

For amateur in-game photographers, it has a unique utility, since the office gives you access to a blue, green and blank white room in which you can take pictures that are easier to edit later.
For Sky-fans, the office is covered in posters that give insight into the history and meaning of the realms in Sky.
And for those that want their own Space Oddity: "On certain days, the inside of the Office will be dark, and players will see that the television screen in the meeting room is brightly lit and flashing. Players can journey through the screen to another area – the Space Station, or ISS."^[https://sky-children-of-the-light.fandom.com/wiki/Secret_Area]

Again beware, if I could go back in time I would not pay for the cape. But I guess here it is, my free, completely unpaid pitch for the office cape if someone wants to throw money at TGC for some in-game pixels💀

That's exactly where my confusion stems from lol

I do appreciate that there is more to the office than just the office (I did have a proper look around before fleeing lol), but then again, I guess those aspects of the game just don't appeal to me, not enough anyway - I do enjoy taking in game photos, but again, the scenery is already so beautiful, I can't see why I would want to be rid of it, but then I also don't edit or create content, so I'm sure other people have their reasons, and I can see the appeal of checking out the ISS at least once, but after wasting hours of my time waiting to spawn Oreo the dog and getting massively disappointed at what it actually was, I've learned not to expect too much from the little easter eggs lol though I know some people really love that kind of thing (as well as the history and lore I personally just don't care that much about).

I think we can agree that it's worth visiting at least once, just to know you did, but that it's best to try and be patient and wait for days where it's free because there are definitely better ways to spend money on/in Sky haha
