Well said,

but...it WAS a complain about the game service.

To demand 10$ for a gamble box is a joke, a bad one. 40$ for a new class is another. What do you think the game´s quality is like? WoW?

I often play an online cash shop Golf game, named Pangya (since I didn´t find a better one, Shot Online plays weak). When I invest 50$ there, then I have a top equipment and usables for several months.
If I try to buy equipment at the Atlantica cash shop - just a nice mount or special clothes... what do you think? How many gamble boxes do I need?

 

 

well we all gonna admit that AO won't be as the same standard as of WoW

the gamble boxes is becoming norm to some f2p mmos nowadays (and one bad idea if you ask me), and we gonna admit that korean mmos are petty expensive even if it's f2p, maybe they ae basing on the koean players wnats in their community, but i'm not sure about it

maybe one good option is to tell the devs that players don't want a gamble box and suggest some godd options to replace it

if my research is right, Childs Play was founded by the makers of the Penny Arcade comic. so yeah, im not surprised they decided to just pull out.

I don't see it that way, I just see it that they really want to share and give a apart of their sales to a charity.... Honestly most of the players contradict anything Ndoors do to the game,  Now that they want to give to a charity still players complain regarding the amount. Imagine in the Stuffer that you can get the most valuable thing like the druid items it cost a lot now in the game.. .And if happens that you get the item, do you think you still complain on the amount of the box for $40? I don't think so, think about the things that we have a chance to get in the box that's why it's expensive..... ^^


 

No, that's why it's pathetically disguised gambling.

Of course, you have to risk.... that's the gamble, if you don't risk you don't have a chance to get any items specially the druid item :) and you have a choice whether to take a risk on this box or not.

Yes, but the gamble ndoors have is understandably misleading. People make their own decision to buy or not, but having it attached to anything of chance is a risky decision politically and otherwise.

The blizz/EQ/etc options were a straight up cost, you knew what you get, etc.

That's their way, their different from other games and ever since getting items from their box is random... Like what i've said if you don't want to risk you won't see what you can get... And all Ao players are already used to it..but still we have an option there's a quest line for it.

almost all f2p games are doing this gambling type of gimmicks nowadays, not just ndoors

and for the case of blizzard, lotro, EQ; they are all p2p games and they can add premium items that are cheap without the gambling gimmick as they can still gain a steady income from their monthly subscribers, unlike f2p games they have to rely on the premium item market, so to keep players from spending, they have to think of ways to ensure players will keep on playing..and that's how the f2p system works

almost all cheaply made and run f2p games are doing this gambling type of gimmicks nowadays, not just ndoors

Fixed. Perfect World, Runes of Magic, Free Realms, Earth Eternal, and many others don't use this cheap gimmick.

We decided to give 5% of gross revenue generated from this box to this charity in the hopes that it would bring a little more joy in the hearts of the charity’s cause.

lmao

For people without a brain this is a scam and a market tatic. omfg I really should buy this to help poor kids. But there only donating 5% of it.. Why? because if they said NOTHING about helping out they would have sold less now more people tend to buy them because there doing it for a cause.

 

So if they sold 10 now they sold say 100..
