New pet videos on youtube

I do get Kabraxis' reaction a little bit though.

The underlying question it seems to me is whether the same tiered system as the one from supporter packs should transfer to miscelnnaeous shop items after Open Beta.

Meaning, even as a F2P game and not "pay to win", there is something I find a little bothering that there would be exclusive pets and items for the really rich.

So he does have a point in that the tiers should not be as exclusive as they were for supporter packs.

This is not the same situation now. Gold/Diamond Supporter packs were understood as a way of funding the game essentially. A kind of kickstarter. Very smart move from GGG.

But as I said even as a F2P game I feel that supporting this type of Diamond/Gold, super expensive items is not cool for the player base. Funding is over. Now hopefully GGG can make a good regular income by selling reasonably priced items in reasonably priced tiers.

Meaning, that it would totally suck that some pets can't be bought because they are like 50$ or more. That's silly.

People will be to busy praising GGG on the lack of P2W to give a shit about prices on optional cash shop items.

Go check out Allods. People have payed well over $300 for mounts on top of the massive amount of items required to remain competitive.

And whats the price? Hope is not so high, same with Spell Animations.

For 5$ i would buy 10-20 pets/animations over the next 1-2years but for 15-25$ i will buy 0, than i would stick with Stash Tabs etc. :/

hehe all this "adoring fans" have are insults? pathetic.

I have very strict rules ehan it comes to cash shops. I dont like buing something for too much proce. End Of Story. Pll that insult me can kiss my ass.

Also... to Chris... http://massively.joystiq.com/2012/12/04/turbine-proposes-nixes-50-lotro-hobby-horse/

Just do some research how community react for this 'great idea' in F2P game.
Overpricing and cash grabs are ALWAYS BAD. Sadly they are common in F2P games and i see that they will be here in PoE too.

End OF Story.

And to pll that insult me - kiss my ass again i pay money for my playtime already (and its exception because i dont pay for betas) so i owe GGG nothing and i may express my opinion.

If you don't like the price or think GGG is cheating people with expensive prices, then don't buy anything. Simple as that. Keep your butt hurt out of threads though, it is nasty :P

I had no idea that completely optional, cosmetic pets that have no effect on gameplay could be considered "overpriced".

That being said, GGG will want people to buy them, so I hope they provide a range of different costs to suit how much people can and will pay.

2) How can something be overpriced when it's completely optional? It's like saying an expensive bottle of whine is overpriced.

I like this comparison the most.

Ya know what...? The people that will pay for these cosmetics will regardlessly if the rest do or dont.

Pricing is in GGGs ballpark. Dead discussion.

PS - the poster back several pages that asked for multi pets on field at once ... i agree. That would be cool purchase.

It's not like you're forced to buy them. All the pets are purely cosmetic.

For me its upsetting selling pet for the price of AAA game. Period. Anything more than 5$ is greedy. Period.
I dont forbid you to make money from your game but overpricing is overpricing.

Just look at this (i circle important stuff with red):

[excluded from quote]

YEA SURE..... apparently in F2P one character class is worth 30$ (1,5x Torchlight 2 price) and whole game is worth 750$ (!!!!!)... Its laughable.
Its very bright example but overall... F2P games are overpriced and far more expensive than even AAA titles from corporations.

I know that my spot doesnot change anything.. but i want you to know that for me pricing a pet at 25 or even more is 100% greed nothing more.

And if the pets are that expensive i have very bad fiilings about cash shop (one time use weapons glow for 10$ anyone? its centainly possible i think).

And it have nothing to do with 'no Pay2Win" philosophy... Its compeltely differrent matter here.

There's nothing wrong with charging $1000 or any amount of money for a vanity item (key word: "vanity"). You're gonna have to get over the fact that getting all them would require serious cash. You're the one being unreasonable here, not Grinding Gear.
