But with Legends of Norrath it is just mind boggling. It's like they are snakeoil salesman. Seriously, stop and think hard about what you are doing by spending $1000 on virtual packs of cards for LoN. Don't even try to tell me monthly subscriptions is the same thing. No offense to anyone, but I just find this shit so bizarre.
I don't disagree, but you can also play for free because if you have a sub to the eq and such you get a "starter" deck and by the time you finish the tutorials and start scenerio's you get about 10 extra cards or so.

Then if you continue to play their games you have the chance to find cards in game(consider it free unless you literally only made a game account to find cards which is stupid anyway) or even buy them with in game PP you had laying around since nothing in EQ is worth buying anyway if you don't play on FV...

It's not a bad deal. But I would agree people spending 1k+ on it are crazy...or more likely just richer than I.
