Eternal Bond - Standard Plan and Gold Plan

[Ilitsa]

I don't wanna go off tangent this thread is on but just gotta comment on this. Grand Chase originally wasn't like that. It became like that because the developer killed off 90% of the global player base with bad patches and still wanted to milk the game for all it was worth.

Be that as it may, it's like that now.

With all 100 players left.
A dead game with a bad developer that had no other choice isn't exactly the same as a successful game with a huge player base that actually listens to its players for the most part. Most games that have gone for cash grab schemes like that are dying. That's why I said it wasn't like that before. They screwed up so they tried to make as much money as they could before they have to trash it.

You're comparing apples and oranges.

Not even close to the same situation / reason for going full on into the cash shop.

Its really only a few vocal people on the English forums that make a huge fuss over microtransactions. For example out of 70 people or so in my FC nobody even cares about it. Most of the people that play the game don't care about it. Most of the JP players do not care about it.

I've seen plenty of people fussing but we all pretty much said the same thing in my fc. As long as there's no pay to win stuff then no real reason to care much.

The only thing I personally think weird about this situation is that the extra plans didn't really seem necessary, especially if it's just for mount/minion/slightly more detailed clothes. Me and my friend already decided that we were gonna go ahead and pay for it, so i'm not really in the camp of caring much about it being a money thing. I just find it a little odd to even make separate plans in the first place.

However like I said to the person I responded to in the first place. I was pretty much just responding to the comment about GC, I also didn't mean to go as off topic about it as I did so I apologize.


The only thing I would think is a little bad for this is how much they over hyped that double mount. People seem pretty upset at the chance of that costing money.
