Acceptable Cash Shop Items: Suggestions!

[Bloodclaw]

Isn't this kinda selfish and narrow minded? Aesthetics and glamour might be what they play the game for and they have no interest to tackle end game content whatsoever. Locking them out to certain vanity gear behind a cash shop even though they pay the same subscription fee is kind of unfair don't you think?

You know, this thought had actually accrued to me. However I feel our backs are up to the wall on this one, and figured what would hurt the least.
Feels like F*cking triage.

No thanks, we already pay monthly we don't need to pay for anything else.

Instead of cash shops or some other pointless form of micro transactions because we all already pay a subscription fee. There should be a way to create a "poll" players can "vote" for content that the dev team will agree that it is reasonable to focus on for a major patch aside from what they have planned.

For example.

Drop related.

Primal vanity Gear.
Primal minions.
Primal barding.
Ramuh's epic beard.
Long Hair.

Votes decide which gets priority.

Content specific

Favour system
Open world dungeons
Primal FATEs

so on and so on.

I find it incredible that OP, who is so vehemently against "P2W retainers" is now talking about implementing a fully fledged cash shop! Personally I think a vanity based cash shop is worse than their P2W issues like retainers. I can still get myself on even footing with people buying extra retainers by playing through the game as intended. Whereas no matter how well I do in the game, no matter how many times I beat every turn in Coil, no matter how much I do of anything, I will never be able to get those cash shop items without paying real life money. And I just don't think that's fair. This is a P2P game, if they want to start adding cash shop stuff then go F2P.

I really hope you are being sarcastic. That is a terrible idea.

I think they should honestly add an alternative to paying for your subscription similar to how Wildstar and Tera Online do/did. This would be an item you could buy on the cash shop and sell on the market place where the item upon use would apply 30 days to your account.

The good thing about this is that it would effectively strike a huge blow to RMT

When did gaming turn into something that can't thrive past the initial purchase?? The only reason I support Fantasia as an additional payment is to not abuse the privilege of it. There was a time when creating your character was an honest effort and you took your time and cared for your creativity.

Exactly.

Cash Shops are a horrible money grab, I hate what has happened to gaming with the advent of f2p and cash shops. It's disgusting.

Yeah, its an unfortunat thing, but with the way markets work in the world if you can constantly be finding ways to make more money for less then a company, or in this case a video game, is considered a failure and in either cases a company will lose stock value. I predict that soon, in like 3-6 years, games will have a big crash like back in the 80s. It almost makes my cry when I think what games were and what they are now becoming.
