NOOOOO!!! This game will be dead upon arrival if this is allowed to proliferate in the USA. Look at what happened in Aion. Americans are cheapskates and won't stand for subscription and P2W. Please tell me pots in the cash shop are a joke. They make a huge difference in pvp.

We will make the decision based on the needs of our audience and market. You can be sure we will carefully evaluate any system or item before we introduce them to North America.


Translation: of course we will have a cash shop. How could we possibly not have ? $$$sssss

"Carefully" - like you did with everything else - elins, ip blocks, shops removal, unicode crippling, bop additions, boxes removal, and who knows what else that you don't even bother mentioning. Very "carefully". Then you will ram that down our throats in Europe, whether we want it or not.


On a less sarcastic side - who wants to bet the name of Tera's Aurum equivalent ? Naive belief that c.scrolls will sustain the demand ("game time" will devalue amusingly quickly) is just well, naive.

Why do people jump at conclusions on cash shops?

Any AAA game out there that has one doesn't have game changing items in them just fluff. How is that bad?

You will never succeed in business, lol.

PR is all about making the customer think one way while having plausible deniability if you change your mind later on.


lol, so true. It's a business responsibility to cover their azzes. If / when they implement the cash shop they'll refer back to that after their "thorough research", bringing the cash shop here is what's best for the west, just like everything else they've been doing.

Just remember people EnMasse is a publisher not a developer. And publishers are only concerned about one thing.... $$$$$$$$$$$$$

This would be a fantastic subject for the devs to post a sticky about to allay fears...

Many AAA's dont have pay to win items.

K-TERA does.

I would bet 10 chronoscrolls that they will give a vague, ambiguous answer with no substance as to whether or not this system will be in NA TERA.
