that just seems like the perfect storm on the worst possible time in which the payments should have been added. to me if they had held off for even another few updates to get the battle system changes, crafting changes, and server issues taken care of with the positive direction they started in the last 2 patches it would have worked. i just think right now when things were starting to look up was a bad time.
I can agree with this. A better time to start charging would be around 1.21 with the new jobs system at least.

1.22 -> 1.23 is a 3month gap. Almost makes you just want to wait for v2.0.
