China is getting wings

I'd pay for the bardings lol.

Personally, I think they could've did a better job on the wings or at least add a costume without them. The costume does look nice, but the wings kind of ruin it. That barding looks really good, kind of shame that it will be CS instead of in game via crafting or something.

Why doesn't it belong in a sub mmo? Who made this rule? And when? Cause the way I see it why not? Nothing is in there but QOL items. I mean unless you want everything to be easy and free? Life doesn't work that way tho. I just hate people saying you don't earn the item thru buying when you have to have an income to buy the thing in the first place. Income which you EARN. So I don't see how they AREN'T earning it when they use their RL money to get said item. Again a case can be made that you getting it in the game with no cost isn't "earning" it, but noone wants to say it.

And no, your sub ONLY covers that you'll be able to PLAY the game it does not cover extra items. Same with DLC. You have to buy that stuff too. That's life, it may be unfair but we live in a unfair world.

Never thought I'd see the day where the cash shop was defended. Paying for a sub used to mean no cash shop and instead special items were implemented via quests and usually involved team work, farming, crafting etc to get. You know, it paid for stuff to be obtained by playing the game...not swiping a card.

Cash shop being defended ? Ever since they add it, those who dared say it was a sloppy road were "attacked" by those more than willing to pay first for recolor or services and now for exclusif content xD
Know the sad part ? we are a minority xD

Funny how it's always animals name, here in France we call them pigeon (although I never understood why pigeon instead of something else oO)

Bit off topic but while we're on the subject of the cash shop, can someone explain to me where the term "whales" came from and what it's supposed to mean?

Whales is a term usually associated with gambling, but it's a high roller, someone who wagers huge chunks of money, in this games case, spend large amounts of money for items, no matter the cost for entertainment, as long as they want it, they will throw money at it. that outfit you want cost $50 ? No problem, These people usually have no sense of value or just simply do not care because money is not an issue to them.

and the end of the day, someone will spend say $1000 in 3 weeks on cash shop items. That is considered a whale. f2P games will usually have these type of people in large numbers.

Whales

Or, more realistically, it's a derogatory term used to insult CS buyers.
