F2P players can reach the same progress of paying players with ease on Lost Ark.

All good my dude. Amazon seems to care about this new market they've taken an interest in so I genuinely think they may handle this launch must better. But we will see. I think the head start will be a good way for them to curb the problems much easier as well while we all beta test their server maintenance. Can you imagine the good PR if they nail the launch though? First game in how many years out of how many companies.

Yes, and nothing is locked behind the cash shop.
Everything is obtainable in game for f2p

They have to nail it imo, they are launching the only successful by player count increasing since launch MMO ever.
It's been played for ~4 years and it keeps on increasing in player count.

If they nail the launch, it will be a MMO reckoning.

IGG helps you advance not win in this game from my understanding though. There is no paywall that you must pay for to advance. Sure you can whale it up and hit end game/end gear faster. But your average everyday consumer can also get there playing the game while enjoying it. Never once are you forced to swipe a credit card to make it to the end.

Obviously we all see P2W differently, but to me this game does not have any P2W behind it. There is no defined barrier that stops your progress 99% unless you pay.

Daddy Bezos please bless us with this launch

that's good news. from what i've read the gold early is pretty much used for alts lvl boost so u can farm dailies and weeklys.

This game is so much easier on the wallet compared to MANY other MMORPGs, you name it.
