Seriously what the heck happened here where did all the vanity sets on the shop go it was like free money for funcom I’m pretty sure at one time, and then it just stopped being there?
hey funcom any chance you could put those existing vanity sets back on the shop maybe add some more ? it’s no wonder funcom loses money on this game. They dont even have something is simple as vanity sets for sale on the store, but they did it one time.
Even so, they’re kinda shooting themselves in the foot by not offering them on the store for folks who dont want to grind for days/weeks and wouldnt mind ponying up a few bucks
Not all of the previous sets are there, some are still missing.
Also, in the previous shop, you could buy for 1 char, or pay slightly more and unlock for the whole account. This feature is also missing on the new system.
Do the math and calculate what one gilding token is worth in your currency, then you can find out what each piece of the vanity items costs in real money. They are ridicolously expensive.
Also most people want the expensive or rare or especially cool stuff on their mains, which most likely do not need the low tier stuff of the boxes.
Looking at the neclect of the store which is the opposite of a neat use of microtransaktions and the the way Account and billing-options are not handled it seems like FC does not want our money.
You are nearly right. Looking at the changes to the store and to subscriptions, as well as the monetization changes that were done when they relaunched TSW as SWL, it is pretty clear that Funcom doesn’t care if the average player spends any money or not on their games.
Instead Funcom are aiming at the “whales”, the really big spenders, and are trying to squeeze as much money out of them as possible.
