from official forum: the part in that article that states in the subject line, "You can play Drizzt" - is VERY misleading. You CANNOT be Drizzt. You can however, if you buy that particular Package, have a similar background to his for your drow character(s).

Damn I wanna play a Drow but $200 is out of my price range right now with so many other great MMOs taking my time and money! Might splurge on the $60 pack as it seems like a good deal though. I don't mind supporting a game even f2p

Originally posted by MikeB There nothing kneejerk about it, it is downright scammy, your example doesn't hold water, that guy that keeps playing and playing and playing won't know if he will like the game till he tries it.
The problem is that it add a bunch of junk you don't really want to force you to spend more for that "exculsive" item you can only get while the founders deal is going.
If it was truly like you say they would add the exclusive items and account unlocks in all three tiers minus the other junk you will be able to buy from the cash shop.

Originally posted by Torvaldr That depends solely on your point of view and what you consider of value. I believe the majority of complaints here revolve around the quickly increasing cost of content. $140 more for lets see: 2 Extra Days in Beta..(Paid Beta time is F2P???) A race A mount A pet A title No queue (Ahhhh Queues, the greatest addition that F2P has brought the gaming community..a wait..to play a game..) Excluding the Queue, because loggging into a game in a timely manner used to be free and a must for any game, we arrive at a cost of 28.00 per perk. Not a single one of which, you will ever be able to hold, or keep after the servers are down. Sounds like a great deal, pony on up! |

FoeHammerJT people on kickstarter gladly pay 5000$ extra to name a place in the game.

Da? I'm taking a shot of vodka every time I see a reference to a game being a WoW or Diablo clone. |

Just a note- $200 pack doesn't unlock drow race, everyone has access to drow race. What you're getting is the "Renegade" drow "background.' No confirmation is that means different or additional skills over the standard drow.

I love how I bought TL2 just to be in the NW beta and I get "two days of closed beta". This is so XTREME that I can't possibly explain it through mere words.
You know what Cryptic? Fuck off. |

This preorder pricing stuff is getting interesting. If devs can sell these $200 top tier packs without any physical product, I can easily that shifting to $200 as top tier digital with a $300 or even $500 boxed edition above it.
filmoret: One thing I have never figured out is why the game devs hardly ever fix simple problems that arise. It is like they don't care about the pvp community. Nitth: What makes you so sure its a simple fix? filmoret: Because most of them are. Sometimes its just changing a number in a code string other times its creating a few variables. However none of them should take over a few hours of coding. |

Ok so really the marketing teams for these mmorpgs need to get real. This "WAS" number one on my watch list, but now it's off the list due to this stupidity. I don't care if this turns out to be the best mmorpg ever made. I will not play it.
