Thanks to both you and Reinhart once again! I'm also very glad to hear about the plans for retainers being account-based (especially useful for folks with alts). I do so hope they find a way to make item transfer work and such. Even if it's still a long ways away, this is something I'm definitely looking forward to seeing in the game.Quote:

Also, in regards to retainers, for 2.0 the system will change and we intend to make it so it will not be the character that is given the retainer, but the user's account itself. (Purchased retainers will be usable with any character under the account. Item transfer is a separate problem though.)
Due to the fact that a lot of confusion could arise if we started to charge for retainers now, we decided to hold off on charging for retainers for the moment.
Answered my own question with this:Quote:
As before, and until the release of Version 2.0, players will be entitled to employ two Retainers at no charge.
Yoshida's sister is a DFC Lalafell? Who would had known
I'm sure they'll be able to work out a way to flag which item belongs to which character on the purchased retainers by 2.0. Somehow I don't see this being a issue for most people anyway since I'd venture to guess most people aren't going to play more than one character.
Patch delay doesn't mean much to me. Currently playing Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, and I just found out this morning that I got into Diablo 3 beta, so I got stuff to hold me over. :)
More time for Skyrim!!!
This makes me a really happy little taru ^^Quote:

At the same time I do not want to be bled to death trying to maintain them.
Once 2.0 come out they will have a payment system where you will most likely have to pay for each retainer.
Cool! 1.20 can come out, I can play for 3 days, and then switch to Star Wars on 12/15... /sigh
I'm just impressed they've actually kept putting out patches and maintained forward momentum. Good work Yoshi-P. (^ '')^
