I'm worried about the future of content because they question is going to be can we sell this in the cash shop and get a way with it. How far is too far till they lose the player trust once again?
So you're basically admitting that ARR is doomed to go F2P or Freemium? Because the only time a cash shop "goes too far" is when it's their sole source of income. You know, like how D&D Online used to sell 'premium' access in order to access more of the game? That's called Freemium, something ARR is not.
