Eternal Bond - Standard Plan and Gold Plan

[Kinseykinz]

Soo... yeah I was right, if you buy the top package, you get 'priority' in scheduling your event...+ all the goodies. Which also implies that those who do not fork over the 20 dollars (including those that only buy the 10 dollar plan), also happen to be at the mercy for scheduling options for those that do. So now will you all listen?

Hah, don't get your hopes up.

Well... it also requires that the platinum plan party both be online in a party together at 1:00am PST on Friday in order to get that "priority" (as Gold priority is at 2am and everyone else at 3, with rescheduling at 4), so I question just how much competition there will be after the first few weeks rush. And also, on International servers, there's more likely to be a time spread of "good times", unlike perhaps Japan where everyone's in the same time zone. I get what you're saying about the precedent, but in practice I'm not sure how big of an issue it'll be except on the busiest servers in the early days.

A wedding in the real world has an average cost of USD$28,000.

I think we got a pretty good deal here honestly.

In order for it to be pay to WIN there has to be something you are actually able to win by buying it. It's just a vanity item. You can't take this item, buy it, and go win some content or pwn noobs in the frontlines.

No, but it gives you an advantage. You can use the money sold from the bracelets to buy crafted-melded gear, demimateria for Crafter Books, Novus or just flat out pay someone to clear it for you.

I see. So if you own the bracelet it means you can perform the relevant ceremony. However, if people can buy these cash shop items and sell them then that helps remove the paywall barrier meaning people who don't want to pay can buy it using gil.

If you look at it another way, if you're marrying someone you love, a little money spent goes a long way to show your commitment :P

Oh who am I kidding, I don't know how to justify any cash shop system for a pay to play game. I concede the debate.

Sweet. I'm happy the prices are reasonable. I bought my platinum wedding.

[Reneo]

But I have a question. Do we just buy rings and then we have to buy the wedding for platinum? I'm willing to play for the platinum but just curious.
