Naoki Yoshida's Comment in Regard to Jump Potions/Boost Potions

[Fyce]

You don't know that.

Read the opening post, please.
There's data to be found in it which demonstrate that the fraction of new players buying a jumping potion out of the gate is actually tiny. Besides, this data also shows that the majority of players buying said potions have either already some experience in the MMORPG genre, play the game 'til level ~30 before buying, or only buy to play with someone in particular.
Also, keep in mind that these numbers are from the chinese and korean versions. In China and Korea, these services are extremely common (again, already stated in the OP). The EU and NA market for these is smaller. People tends to buy less of that stuff.

So, no, the DF will not change according to these numbers.

And whatever the case, even if new people were to buy jumping potions, it would only be a matter of time for them to learn how to be better at the game and perform to an "average level". So even then, the issue would only be temporary.

Really, this isn't as big of an issue as people think it is. Compared to the benefit of having more player "jump" into the game (pun intended), this issue is almost completly irrelevant because the benefit counterpart is huge.
