    PPl whom think this cash shop will contain "Meh/so-so crap" have another thing coming. Just my 2 cents.
    Crying over something that might happen somewhere down the line is a waste of time and quite pointless. What they have said will happen is both what matters and is worlds apart from what you think might happen. If go through life always thinking the worst, it will lead to a miserable life while you wait for the worst to maybe or maybe not happen. They said it will be vanity only, until they change their stance and say otherwise on this topic your just complaining about something they are not even doing if complaining about being P2W.

    Not really, made a successful/happy living in rl thinking ahead; I do not live in a utopia, it is imperative that I Acknowledge various possible scenarios.

    But anyways, in my previous post, I mentioned the importance of aesthetics (Or vanity); which is what you were referring to "Vanity only." I stated, if ppl think this cash shop will contain "Meh" stuff, they have another thing coming. For instance, the "Vanity" could be exclusive hair options or weapon skins for all we know. Vanity.

    You do not believe it is merely a possibility/possible scenario, you think it will happen based on what you keep saying; in your mind you have already made the jump from possibility to certainty. There is a difference. Someone who considers the future as a job or career should know better than that. You have a closed mind on this and forward thinking people in general should not.

    If indeed you was a forward thinking person and considered the possibilities you would have said it is possible they might change their mind about vanity only items switching to P2W items too based on what other developers have done but you ruled out all possibilities with exception of the most negative one then jumped on that bandwagon prematurely and prior to it happening by deciding in your mind it will happen despite being nothing more than a possibility...one that is not based on what SE have done but what others have done instead.

    I guess so.
    Cultural Marxism, technology dependance, global climate change, extinction of rare species, Dr. Seuss warning people to take a part of the war before the war came to us, running out of candy on Halloween. All these atrocities happened regardless of how much people cried about them up the line. So I guess it is pretty pointless.
    And yes. This is just as bad as the insanity that has shaped our world. Fully. Maybe more. Defiantly more.

    Runs through the cash shop thread, a byproduct of late capitalism, while screaming "FROM EACH ACCORDING TO HIS ABILITY TO EACH ACCORDING TO HIS NEED" while using centralized leadership methods to distribute loot among raid groups. The red plague cannot be stopped. The world is over.
