Cash shop confirmed

[Alukah]

As long as they don't do what Anet did and have everything RNG based and only new skins/vanity coming out on the cash shop I'm fine. Having it available in game and via cash shop would be great, don't want to pay then just farm for it, too lazy to farm just buy it. Anet's gem store really killed GW2 for me if you want any new hair styles or armour skins better give them £8+ (£8 for a single skin, yeah...)

Well, the saints wake event started and guess what? Last years costume is not in the shop, they wont put things in the shop that are currently available in game and, instead of making stuff available for a second year like they did in past events they will just add them to the cash shop from now on.

I hope you all got those summer bathsuits and bomb earrings, it's the last time you will get them for free.

what past events? the only other real game event we had that repeated was moonfire and that didnt have the same things as last time..the others that repeteat are the collaborations which are supposed to be the same


i for one im glad we dont get the same event every year

I don't think anyone wants the same event every year, but they running for 1+1 year (second year = something new + first year stuff, third year something new + second year stuff) was not a bad idea.

Moonfire didn't have exactly everything the same but it did have many returning items, and while the collabs were meant to be repeats, they still count, now you wont see something like that happen again because they can just add it to the cash shop.

lastly....i dont see anywhere a 50 page thread with ppl complaining about that CE goodies, the moogle outfit, wind-up bahamut etc that YOU CANT GET INGAME without buying em with real money

The moogle outfit had its fair amount of complains, CE stuff and soundtrack stuff are older so you might have to dig way to the past to see if anyone complained about that, though people most likely did.

It's perfectly okay if many of you don't really care about vanity, but don't think your views are shared with every single person here, for me vanity is worth more than progression, vanity stays there forever and can be reused many times while stats get outdated every few months, vanity is a form of horizontal content that is now being gated behind a cash wall, I kinda wish they did the same with vertical progress just so you could see it as we see it.
