If the player has enough opal saved up to purchase an item, and does so during the first "launch" of Reda's premium store menu, he will have a slightly different response. As there's a finite number of items in this store (either the items available in the Daily and Weekly Selections, or the total theoretical inventory), and both the items purchased and the accumulated currency are tracked across all save files via the player's Ubisoft profile, it is possible to eventually become locked out of this dialogue response permanently. | |||
