Not just story skips, no outfits, no mounts, nothing. Time passes and well after 3 hours we tried it for the last time (we quested meanwhile and watched some houses) and still nothing. So, the thing is officially for the online store and lodestone this character hasn't existed for 3 hours... is this up to date? So what have we experienced in 3 hours as a beginner? The website of the game isn't aware of the existence of a new player, the game mechanics as eat food while another window (Moogle) is open are impossible since it's too hard I guess? So what happened after? Well, somehow after hours he was able to buy the skip and tried to start leveling. The limitations of the early game beside questions appeared again. What's with other characters, why is a shop item like an outfit not account-wide, why is the shop not in-game like in every other MMO? I mean come on even Metin2 has an in-game shop... So we started laughing really hard but not because the game was fun, it was because everything was so outdated and weird that we couldn't help ourselves otherwise. So yeah, it wasted time even he quested a little and got some mentoring of how the class he's playing works it was worthless since it was the middle of the night. By the way, he's still after hours missing his rewards from friend invitation... after 3 hours his review was and I quote "if it wouldn't be for you I would have deleted this game already" this made me think. Yoshi P was saying in a Japanese interview it's important to keep new players.
