The Platinum Store
Posted: Tue Aug 02, 2011 2:42 am
What would you like to see most in the platinum shop? Right now all we have is sigils. I've stocked up on plenty of sigils and I know that not everyone can spend too much money on their video games, but if you could choose something to be added to the platinum store what would it be?
My personal belief is that the store should reflect a bonus to the players but not an advantage. The sigils already give players a significant advantage over players who don't spend money by regenerating health instantly (if you have enough). This is fine and by all means I'm okay with it. However, I believe the shop should be used more for extras. If they ever release mounts of any type (ignoring the chariot suggestion which will more then likely happen) I've heard players suggest they want dragons. Let the dragons be earned with platinum, but normal mounts earned in game (horses and celtic themed beasts). Let potions be bought in game but over dose potions bought with platinum. Money should never be the reason one player is, by my definition, distinctly "better" then another. I understand the dev team needs to earn money some way and I wouldn't give a penny more to any other app - but I believe we can work around setting players apart due to how much money they have, but believe me, I've spent plenty and right now I'm happy with how the platinum shop works so far.
This is my take on the platinum shop. What would you like to see in the future?
