$94 Is still a lot to ask for a friend to invest in a game they may not even like, thats why the Free trial is what usually get people on board, try out the game, then commit

Aside from that, the issue is again, player retention, and playing with friends. A $94 price tag is not a solution that sounds welcoming to a new player, the game should make it easier to play with friends, not charge more just to have the privilege of having fun with friends

And no, we are not asking for the story to be shelved on the side, just asking for a way to make it less of a pain point when it comes to progression and group play
