As someone who’s spent a decent amount of money in various games, idk how can people do it in this game.
No offense to anyone, but if you have even a tiny bit of self-respect you would never spend a cent on this game. Obviously excluding the first few weeks when we didn’t know what we’re getting ourselves into.
People who kept buying gold during the RMT-fiesta are like those lowest level junkies buying the worst shit just because they got hooked. I’d rather flush the money down the toilet than spend any on a game in it’s current state.
Don’t get me wrong, I think it’s a very good game and there’s still hope. This week has shown promising signs. But I need at least one bot-free month and more importantly blatant RMTers banned to ever consider spending on this game again.
Yeah, that’s different. I still haven’t bought any, but I was mostly referring to people that spend thousands to get like 5ilvl while RMTers walk around with +25 weapons. Have some dignity.
I personally spent a bit less than $30. Arkpass and that lvl50 package with 2.2k (was it?) blue crystals for 1.1k royal crystals.
i refuse to buy dat pass of course its pure p2w. i did buy 2 x charslots, ship skin, char skin and i got another charslot for the powerpass thats incoming
Everything you bought was p2w though… Charslots = additional resource gains even if you only just run the story. Ship Skin = P2w in the group sea events with auto spacebar increasing speed, aka P2Progress faster than those who don’t have it. Char Skin = Gives stats/P2w.
Anything you buy in this game is p2w by at least 1 person’s definition of p2w since it’s so unique to each individual, it’s not an excuse to not make a purchase. If you buy even 1 royal crystal and never use it, someone will say p2w because you wa winning by having 1 more rc than they do.
not doing sea events. charslots should be free so imo its not p2w to have more chars. the skin i could have bought with gold but i refuse to put any progress i made into cosmetics
No need to defend yourself, lol. I’m not attacking you. Just poking fun at people crying about p2w in a p2w game. It’s like crying about breathing in carbon dioxide with your oxygen but not as bad.
Thank you.
Please don’t listen to the 0,0000000001% of the playerbase.
We don’t need that cashgrab system in our version.
AGS/SG should put Amethyst Shards as a reward for more achievements, so the mounts, skins, etc would be more like a trophy for doing something cool instead of “hey I spent $150000, look at this skin that you will never have because you are poor”.
But yeah I agree that the current system will not work if all that we get is 500/1000 shards per month.
With respect, I have no clue why these two systems are even in the same sentence for the purpose of being compared.
I don’t want to have to spend obscene amounts to get cool stuff from a mileage-shop-like feature.
But I also don’t want all of the money I do spend to count for nothing?
I don’t “earn” shards - They’re allocated at a rate somewhere between “Zero” and “Oh, these still exist?”
I can’t “buy” or accelerate acquisition of shards - They have nothing to do with my spending/support/contributions to the longevity/viability of the game.
Even if the reverse were true for these two statements, there’s honestly nothing in the shard shop that I’d even care that much about.
