    SE tends to be silly in their explanations, Dubont lol, I think they basically wanted people to know it's $3.00 per character so did it that way.

    But basically it's 7.99$ a month on the 180 day payment to play the game with one character, which equals the price per 6 months that I quoted you a few posts back.

    its simple math, it makes sense, people need to try seeing it for what it is, not for how they word it
    Look at what I'm saying. I'm not complaining about the price. I'm complaining about how it is set up. Instead of JUST PAYING FOR A BASIC ACCOUNT and getting 1 free character, we have to go through 2 different payment types by buying 1 account and 1 character, which is over complicating things on an already messed up payment system.


    Again, it would more simple to just set it up as "Basic account: 1 Account and 1 character= $price"

    Instead, they have it as "Basic account:$price." Next option "1character:$price"

    Just like at the game's release, they have too many screens/menus and too much complication for something so easy.

    in the end it comes down to 1 thing
    they are japanese
    we are american
    we like prices up front and in our faces, not "broken down"

    and thats where you have a problem

    gotcha. I see that now after seeing it here rather than on a separate forums. Ty.

    Still don't like how they have it set up =p

    lol yeah I can understand, when they first brought up the payment types I had to think about it for a moment and go:: Ok is that 4.99 with (nah that seems too low) has to be 4.99 + the 3.00.

    Heehee. Glad to help you.

    I'm curious if you choose the 180 days $4.99 (total $29.94), for the first month will they charge you:
    1) $29.94 + $3.00 (Char first 30 days) and then charge $3.00 ever month (remainder of the 180 days) OR
    2) $29.94 + $18.00 ($3 for the 180 day period)?

    The way I understand is it is 2. It is $4.99 + $3 a month, so $7.99 a month or $47.94 every 6 months, $95.88 a year.

    But it was known since Lodestone started.
    I think it was also known before Lodestone started
