    • Good news!
      I hope the NA/EU will follow soon...



      PS:
      It's a detail but for :


      THIRST FOR POWER


      There are 10 World Testament, not 5 pieces,
      10 Scroll of teleportation, not 5 pieces,
      10 Holy Water, not 5 pieces,as you can read on the Russian website.


      Correct me if I am wrong (I am not very good in Russian language).


        • After reading snuggles and nito I was thinking exactly the same =O

            • I stopped L2 for a couple of month and I tried WoW.
              After 3 month I got bored.
              I know it's a good game but the atmosphere is not the same as L2 and it was too easy for lvling and have good stuff.


              I am not a reference because at that time, I cam directly from L2 to WoW.


              But, of course, I hope... X/

                • Oh, i tought the contrary, that you got disappointed on the Kr servers..


                  Well, the disaster is a company dependency.. if they can't handle things correctly, any product can go down the hole... don't lose your hopes, we haven't see how it's with AG :P


                  Yes, that's why i explain in the second post. Was not clear enough.


                  I agree with you, company can ruined a game or make it fantastic.
                  I do not want to give up, I want to find a good game play! :)

                    • mmo_geezer and Arkray have clearly explain my point of view.


                      F2P is not so bad for Bryan Fury, for me and other who aren't compulsive buyers.
                      I don't care about using 10-15$ for a P2P so I can use in this F2P 5 to 10$ every month in the cash shop, IF NEEDED.
                      But if you don't control yourself it will be an abyss for some people.
                      It is not a coincidence if companies use f2p. $.$


                      A good P2P, everybody are equal and you don't need to manage your impulsion.
                      The word equal is very important for me.
                      "All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights." (Article1. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights)
                      You are rich or not.


                      Of course there are always exceptions.(I put this before being attacked by somebody)

                        • there's so many people that stay away from P2P games simply because they're not willing to pay a monthly fee in order to play with a game, so don't give anything for guaranteed.


                          i myself always wanted to play games like final fantasy XI or XIV since i have the entire collection from FF I up to XIII along with other spin-offs and sequels, but i never did so due to the monthly subscription.
                          and i never paid to play with those titles not because i couldn't pay, because i still spend from 50 to 70 euros when a new interesting console game comes out, but simply because i prefer to spend money once and be able to play and enjoy a game whenever i like, without being forced to spend X money on monthly basis.


                          so it's not always about being able or not to pay for it, it's also about willing to pay for it, and make a choice if it's worth doing so or not.
                          ask yourself why triple A games like Aion or Lineage 2 shifted from a P2P model to F2P in the recent years.
                          the answer is very simple: to not shutdown entirely due to lack of customers.


                          Of course, I agree with you at all point.
                          But L2 used P2P many years.
                          Now, players want all free and very quick.
                          How many players you can take now to play 2 years for only reach lvl 80??
                          15 years ago, the mentality was different. And it's normal.

                            • I am ready to pay (like L2 before) for playing if it's a good game.
                              I've done it many years.
                              And don't tell me it's expensive for playing a game (10-15€). I was unemployed at a moment and I played anyway.
                              You must make choices.


                              If you pay every month, you have people who can work to make good add/patch and the game stay nice year after year and everybody is happy.


                              I see publisher are targeting short-term market that why I suppose they use free-to-play/pay-to-win/cash-shop system.
                              :(
