This strikes me as a similar strategy employed by Blizzard for Diablo III, where you had the normal marketplace and then the real-world money marketplace. There's certainly a lot of similarities between the two models. Blizzard opted to remove the RW marketplace swiftly due to a massive upset from the player-base, with whales being able to attain Godly gear before others. Imo TL should've just been a subscription based model, they seem to be the best for longevity of an MMO.

I really wish they would release the cap on the dungeons , the fact that you can only do 3 a day and 10 contact is not enough content . It gets super repetitive and boring . The drop chances are so damn low as is so why would they care if we want to dungeon spam all day ? Then on top of that you have to fully trait items , ridiculous grind to have with time / gate kept content .

The zero-loot-policy is mainly to support bots. Bots can farm 24/7 and run endlessly boring content get eventually loot and sell. There are many explicit signs saying "you are not intended to get any loot unless you pay". It could be easy to make loot only available if you take regional quests, needing to go back take quest, and move around and not farm same spot 24/7 like bots do. simply remove all drop loot, so bots get nothing unless the do some additional quests/move around mechanics. But again, the game is designed around botting. e.g. amitois auto loot to support afk farming^^

@@FRESHY_GG really ? When else have they given out tokens besides the new years event ? Because that’s all I was buying and I ran through them all and have to do 3 dungeons daily only . Besides that I already have all my gear +9 and some purple +6 and the only thing worth doing is farming mobs that hopefully drop purple lithographs which is extremely rare or world bosses . Besides that there’s absolutely nothing to do with, and when it comes to journal quests no one’s ever in the sylus abyss bottom floors to do those quests . And those events that happen open world give horrible loot .

@@mgvikings1484 I mean , have you not been to fonos basin or any higher level area , there’s still groups of bots farming all day long for purple gear and lithographs so what your saying makes no sense . I play everyday and no matter where I go in any high level area there’s some form of bots somewhere . I just personally don’t get why they gatekeep dungeons so much when the chance to get the drop you want is so rare PLUS you have to completely trait out your gear . In my opinion it’s just dumb

They need to add durability on all armor and weapons and let players to sell resources and equipment for gold. People who cant grind 24/7 will buy gold and get all the equipment they want and players can earn extra gold for same things. Armor and weapons will brake eventually and you will need to grind again or buy new one on the market for gold. profit or no.

sub model / battle pass / expansion pass is my go to, I will gladly pay 15$ - 30$ a month for a good game or even buy new content, I don't understand why developers try to please the whales, the whale won't stay if the game is dead cause no one wants to play with the whales. Is this the reality now, make a game, cash it in for a year or so, then shut it down when everyone leaves?

Because the raids are made so that they can be carryable, so is PvP. Not to mention all the other uses of gold. If you have enough gold you can pretty much not play at all, that's why it's p2w.

I hate games with 2 currency because it always involved P2W aspect. Ncsoft knows this shit and they still allow it. This is why this game is doom to fail. WoW retail gold has really no value because gold is so easy to come by and its most important aspect for gold usage is to repair gear during raid/M+. People are not trouble by gold because its not an RNG like most Korean games that you gamble to enchant and break. If you can't do the mechanic people dont want you. But now Throne and Liberty has even more dumb rules on being penalty if you die. If you believe their saying "whale gears cant 1v2 you are on cracked."

Wow is NOT p2w, you can buy a boost but what? The hardest part of the game is gearing your character, learning the classes, the mechanics, dungeon routes and if you want to be a healer or tank you need to learn extra stuff. And if you are that dumb to spend money in mythics/raid carry all that gear is going to be useless on the next season. So basically buying leveling-boosts or gearing boosts is not going to give you a real advantage 😂

I speak a few languages but that is besides the point. You are speaking for around ten minutes and I can't understand you. Perhaps put words on the screen so I can read them or perhaps man up and take some constructive criticism. We have only 26 letters on our alphabet. It's not hard not does it take a long time to learn how each one sounds. As of now, it seems you are surrounded by people who want to encourage you and therefore you stay the same instead of learning how to speak a language that you are trying to to make a profession in by teaching on KZitem in that same language
