/Play Dead

[Rin_Sato]

wish I could choose which playdead emote I used, I mean it's the exact same animation as /doze for female lalafells so I don't really see the point in getting it

As a role player I was ecstatic when I saw this Emote during fanfest. I was not pleased at all when it popped up in the freaking cash shop.....I still bought it though which is a large part of the problem. I'm sure a lot of other RPers will react the same way and yet also cash in. I am well aware of the Cash Shop argument, that no one FORCES us to pay for things but the fact that something they knew a large part of the community wanted and putting behind a pay wall, (a fairly hefty one for a single emote I might add) just seems.... not quite right.

"We don't want a /sleep because we're worried people will do naughty things with it"
... Alright SE..

You guys remember you've got a monthly subscription and paid expansions right?

[Seryne]

And here I'd thought /playdead would have been obtainable in game. Silly me

[Roda]

I can't even fathom how they could justify charging for this..
Like.
All of the frames are in the game already...
They did maybe 20 minutes of work..

The one emote I've been aching for so I can /suicide and finally embrace the sweet death Hydaelyn denies me is behind a fiery wall of cash, nah.

I honestly (man I use this game a lot in comparisons) like Aion's system of bonus emotes just being incredibly expensive and out of the casual player's general in game budget. So it'd be like going to a vendor and paying 1.3m for an emote. Pricey, yes. But so is Jet Black Dye which honestly would get the same amount of usage for its in game worth.

Well, it's not exactly sleep emote..


Still feels bad to have to buy emotes.
Saw a video talking about a company that does the exact opposite with huge success just today.
So it definitely doesn't have to be like this.
With it being this way... i feel more like a money bag to SE than anything else.

It's kinda sad, when you think about being just that to the company that created so many titles that gave you so much joy in your childhood. :|
You love them, but they don't love you back.
Just like seeing all those horrible Yuna imitations shatter my childhood hard. :|

Well, it's not exactly sleep emote..

I thought this game was rated T. And no in this case the whole "online interactions" don't apply, that's an actual part of the game.

Instead of making solid content, they selling /emotes, minions, and mounts which can be programmed in less than 5 minutes. If i were you i would never buy a thing from that shop and completly boycott it. They should make and earn money from real content and not make for living from things like that in cash shop. Its subs based game, not f2p.

I'd rather be dead (ingame) than pay to play dead.

On the other note, I already spotted people who actually bought the emote. Shame on them.
