| This kind of makes me sick, it is goes beyond this being EQ but, this represents Sony, their decision making, and their perspective in respect to their customers.
LoN is optional and they've placed item rewards within the game but why grow and reward people for paying money when people are paying monthly fees and box costs. I would take this more lightly if EQ went to around 3.99 or even free in addition to this move. This is just so egotistical (and delusional) to feel that this 10 year old game merits such an investment of time and money to have access to the full game/content.
This is greedy and it is a slap in the face to those who have been around 6,7, or even 10 years. Why squeeze money from the people that still support this game? Give these people are break... If they want more subs adding the cost up for a outdated yet, nostalgic game does seem how to lead the horse to water. They need to start cutting the costs, enhance their store, and packaging in their other games and throwing in the game that started at all as a very proud gift.
I think a lot of people would play EQ for a reduced (especially a free rate) but if I, as a subscriber, have to end up paying 20 to even 50 dollars a month (if you add up LoN packs, Store costs, monthly fee, or even an expansion time to time it gets costly) that is just insulting and makes me say to myself not to support or consider their games in the future instead of saying this is what brought me years of fun and entertainment i'll give their next game a shot.
Whatever... this really isn't worth the time I even put into this post but I think it's shameful that they are not making moves that appear more appreciative to their fanbase. |
