Afterthought

If that vaporware they call 'Ashes of Creation" ever gets out of alpha and releases as a full game ( if ever, LOL ), I am stocking up on popcorn..I give it less than 2 months after release for them to realise why you dont spend millions making a pay to play, full loot open world pvp game.

I give it three months for the honeymoon to end, four months, for people to start jumping ship when they discover they dont want to pay to be someone elses chew toy , six months for their playerbase to hit rock bottom going FTP.

Open pvp games have very low player numbers for good reason.

Josh Hayes has the best take on the matter.
