Cant buy items to win, and cant give urself a any power bonus, so i dont give a fuck what they sell.


you notice how every game says that you cant pay to win using their cash shop? then notice how the majority of them are wrong on that? thats why noone trusts the model.

this, I would much rather pay a few extra money to support ArenaNet

there is a lot debating going on over at GW2Guru, and so many people are raging about this.

But why? You can get all the cash shop items just by playing the game and buy gems from others and people who buy gems wont bring more money into the game, since there has to be someone spending time farming that gold. So it's a good gold sink aswell actually.


easily if the shop starts like that at release it will be pay to win soon...

gw1 had item shop, but never pay to win items. only cosmetic items.
also you can pay gold for the gems, so you can buy things in the shop without ever spending real life money.

Um, no, you cant pay to win in LoL, cant pay to win in WoW (not an open cash shop, but u can buy alot in WoW outside of the game, mounts, transfers, etc.)

the model works fine infact, and many MMO's have worked it perfectly fine.

Pretty much this, anybody who thinks otherwise is retarded.

You will not be able to pay to win, period, you can do anything stat/power wise in game with time/hard work that you can do with your wallet.

You can put it incredibly plain for people, and they still won't get it. I'd ignore these ignorant dumbasses
