Their official statement on the matter is "At launch, the cash shop will be cosmetic items only. Starting in the year 2022 we may offer level boosts, trade skill boosts, quality of life and convenience items" So they straight up said "hey, for the first six months the game is not pay to win. After that, anything goes" And also what are "quality of life and convenience items"? So you're telling me I have to pay $40 for the privilege of being inconvenienced by Amazon? And also like I said, in an MMO, I'm more about the PvE side of things. Dungeons and raids and all that good stuff. From what I can gather, at launch there's only 6 dungeons, there are no raids at level cap, and the dungeons that are there people said are pretty easy. It is primarily a PvP focused game. There's nothing wrong with a PvP focused MMO, it's just not the primary reason I play MMOs. But even then, it almost seems like the earliest adopters get a massive advantage since they'll be able to buy up all the territories, then everyone else will have to fight them for resources. Idk. Maybe that part of the game won't be so bad, hard to say. Mostly my issue with the game is, I do not trust Amazon. --- Nintendo Network ID: papercups 3DS FC: 4124 5916 9925 <cite>papercup posted [p:956345923] in Anyone pla...
