Ok, i hear and see people complain, saying they want the game free to play. If you didnt know, there will be an INGAME item called...

Chrono scrolls, basically what they do is give you 30 day ingame time. They are sold by players for players. And you get them by buying them from Enmasse.Theyre doing this to combat monday seller/farmers. So if you wanna play for free then work dam hard ingame to make money. Simple as that.

exactly, and this isn't even F2P

okay, so people buy these chrono scrolls from EME for $15

then these players sell them in game for gold, giving these players a "free" 30 days.

but the prices of these scrolls will be expensive as hell, make no mistake.

either way, these people who use the chrono scrolls aren't getting the game free, EME is still making the money for those accounts from people buying chrono scroll.s

Correct, EME is now the gold seller. They say right in their official post that selling gold is a "billion" dollar industry..they just want a piece of that pie.

exactly, and a lot of gold selling websites have keyloggers, and steal credit cards and all that crap.

why risk it? play it safe, gain more profit.

Honsetly, I'm against chronoscrolls as some of the very verteran players on these forums know, but fact of the matter is rather the money go to EME than to goldsellers thats for sure.

Yes, if there is going to be gold sellers, this way does seem to be a more beneficial way of doing it. There is also the potential for actual gold sellers to sell their gold cheaper than what people are willing to give for the scrolls though. So this may not work in the long-run.

It will also have the effect of legitimizing the buying of gold, and many will buy scrolls and sell them that have never bought gold in the past due to risks/ethics.

Ill let you know that, theyre LEGALLY gold selling. Because they own the rights to the game. while those other websites are selling stuff within their own servers making money off them. Theyre ILLEGALLY making money off the game.

EME isn't making any extra money off this, though. Their net gain is zero.

I buy a one month subscription for $15.
You buy a one month subscription for $15.
EME has made $30 from the two of us.

I buy one month subscription for $15 and 1 chronoscroll for $15.
I sell the chronoscroll to you for in-game gold.
EME has made $30 from the two of us.


So either way, EME gets the same amount of money. But in the second case, I'm happy because you gave me lots of gold, and you're happy because you don't have to spend $15, and RMT are sad because we're not paying them for the gold. Win, win, win.




Also, based on the prices I was seeing advertised in OBT, the gold seller prices are going to have to come down if they want to compete with chronoscrolls. And if those prices get too low, it won't be profitable for them anymore, and they'll move on to some other game and try to exploit that.

that is what you think, in a month plays can easily gather up to 15k gold

Scrolls will obviously be selling for at least 5k gold, thinking otherwise is stupid.

you just want games to be F2P, you sound more and more like an RMT every time you post.




Diash has tried to take credit for everything EmE has changed, and Everything Bluehole has added.

he also thinks having 200 games is a lot of games.


the ratio to cash shoppers in F2P games to players who don't use them, is easily 1-15

1 casher to 15 non, which means, it is not paying for the amount of free accounts, which is why most suffer and go under, you are think and have never worked in the field, stop trying to act like you have done everything to make Tera possible along with every other game, you are a random.
