Cash shop confirmed

Debunked how? There has been factual evidence in the previous pages where it shows games have retained and even increased their numbers since their "cash shops" had been implemented. All you get in response is rumors and personal opinions on the scale of doomsday naysayers. That's great and all, but if you're going to get all defensive about facts because that's how you feel then boohoo. Feelings don't make money. The whole rude/immature thing is quite amusing seeing how half of the defense does nothing but call your facts trash and attempt to be all hard and belittle everyone else without offering anything else to the conversation. Honestly, it gets annoying after the first few people.

You're asking me to cite a source based on personal motives. Right. Make a poll asking that if that makes you all hot and bothered. People don't just get the CD and go: "Oh boy, it comes with a free pet too! That's nice." Most of the decision to spend money on a physical CD, when you can just get the music elsewhere, comes from the ingme item that comes with it.

Besides. Who buys CD's nowadays anyway.

EDIT: Not that it matters. The shop is coming regardless, and the people who are all broken over it for whatever reason will quit. Nothing will change.

You keep thowing about 'most people' bought it for this reason, you must have something to back that up, or why would you be so adamant it's true. Share it with us, please. Don't keep us in the dark.

Apparently you can justify spending money on an ingame item with no real world value, but not a physical item with tangible value.

Also, any other way of getting the soundtrack on a disc is illegal. Some people shy away from that.
