Overpriced Item Mall

[schloob]

Hello. I am writing this thread to address the overpriced item shop. I will declare this outright: I don't mind paying for a game; pay games are universally better than completely free games. But, this game is terribly expensive. There are 2 items in the shop that are MUST HAVES for any serious gamer: the 120% EXP card and the 30 day 150% hp/sp boost. Together, those are about 18000 outspark points which is over $20/month. Why not offer them together for the price of a normal mmorpg monthly fee? Almost all main stream mmorpgs are about $15/month. I don't think I have to reference them by name. Also, because of the euro being stronger than the US dollar, it costs 50% less for people in Europe to buy things. Outspark, which is HQed in the US is catering to Europeans? Either way, this game is great and I will play until I feel it is economically unrealistic. I think by lowering prices say, 33% you can get more than 33% more people to pay. These prices are rediculous and they are turning people off big time. I have only personally talked to one other person in 20 levels that buys the HP/SP boost and this can be evidenced by all of the gimpy level 20 fighters running around with 700HP. At the rate it is going, I can 3 box in WoW/EQ/EQ2/LotRO for the same price as 1 character in this game. Anyways, that's my 2copper.

You dont neeed any of these stuff. You just have to spend more time playing the game than attacking tis prices.Were in America we aint in a Asian country were everything is cheap...nothing is cheap in America ok???live with it.Your lucky this game is even free with all the goodies beign added every week n month. I never complain so u should'nt to. this game rox alrdy the prices are fine but game bugs shoudl be fixed thats all im concerned with

Don't pay any attention to Tekneeks he is very bitter about something somebody did to him a long time ago and now he takes it out on us constantly.
His very statement that he supposedly "never complains" Is a complete contradiction.
Why most of us caught him "complaining" about a legit item a player was using, and tried to get him banned just this morning.

^ Couldn't have said it any better myself.

Anywho, No one's forcing you to buy these from the item mall. It's all a choice. =__=; You can still enjoy this game without buying from the cash shop. :X
