Funny thing is.. it's not a conspiracy or anything. It's true.



GW2 CLEARLY states before release about their cash shop and its contents.



Tera in its defense has a two year old article before release. (only thing trolls can cite)



So which of these two seems less deceptive? I wonder.. I wonder why Enmasse didn't make any other claim about the vanity cash shop after the two year old article.



Conspiracy starts here:

I can only guess that they thought any more mention of ze cash shop would harm sales..

I for one would never be here, posting on these forum had I been told, UP FRONT, that there would have been an included additional fee of content labeled as vanity in a cash shop.





FFS let it go man!

The Tera "Cash Shop" provides no in game benefit. But from what I hear, GW2's will.

If that is true, tell me again which is worse for the player base?


I invested money in this game. How could you possibly tell me to "let it go" when I've clearly been deceived? Did I also mention that I knew nothing about Tera 2010? Around the time the article was released...

I only recently became aware of Tera this 2012.. around the time the big hype about this action MMORPG started. I do tell you that NO WHERE! Anywhere was there any official announcement about future vanity cash shops and its contents.

As for the content the cash shop for GW2 has is irrelevant. What matters is that Areananet makes it clear to its customers about a cash shop prior to release. To the point that there are pictures of the cash shop and official multiple announcements.

Once again, had I known that Tera would include an additional cash shop for access to further content prior to release.. we would never be having this discussion, Swaay.

If possible.. I'd like a refund and be done with this all.

You're not even a true fan! I've known about TERA since day 1, when a developer at NCSoft said "I have an idea".

I don't get this line of reasoning. You know that 1) Every other version of this game has some type of premium content. 2) Most other games sell items like these, not just the account services but vanity services too. 3) You also know one of the selling features of this game is an item that you buy for real money and can trade in game that gives a month of game time.

With all of this knowledge, it should be fairly easy to assume that there would be a cash shop eventually. Also, what the shop has really doesn't add anything besides cosmetics which you would be receiving by subbing at the end of this month. People will try to find anything to have a issue with, but they don't think about how ridiculously small the issue is.

I hope hope hope it's true. Minea wrote "last warning" in a thread she locked about the cash shop, dear god I hope she meant it.

EME released a video like 3 months ago some interview of some kind.
In the interview the developer said "we don't plan on adding any play to win cash shop items, but if we add anything at all to a cash shop it will be something the entire team debates over. However, at the time we don't have any cash shop items" something to that effect.
