Cool, then you wouldn’t mind shipping me the artwork, right? I’ll pay shipping costs.
I guess I get to welcome you to your first MMO! Expansions and additional content for additional costs are the status quo here! Say bye-bye to console (or those w/o season passes anyway) and steam games![quote=“Heurazio, post:246, topic:619”]
Most of the people out there have absolutely NO problems with paying 9€ / month for netflix and not using it enough (I’m watching netflix 5h per month … if i buy the Movie / Series it would be less expensive [which i do a lot too]).

I’m jealous Netflix USD: 15ish I think? Season USD: 25 or so?
Back on topic: monthly subscriptions should not be a topic in this thread. The dev team has said they want no monthly subscription required for playing.
Maybe you missed this since you didn’t take the time to read through previous posts. I was talking about skins and vanity items. It’s actually quite simple in this world to spend real money to buy paint, a new shirt, a dog…I’m against XP boosts, as you’ve already quoted me saying.[quote=“Heurazio, post:246, topic:619”]
Yes, i already asked for their art-works but i never got a real answer

Last I checked Chieftain rank gets signed artwork. See my first reply.[quote=“Vastar, post:247, topic:619”]
I wouldn´t interpret my quote as something about immersion but rather about keeping a distinct border between the “in game” and your wallet. ( You can also “escape reality” with a game that has 0 immersion)
[/quote]
That’s a fair point, I’ve got no counter. I guess I was merely thinking that escaping one reality leads to another reality. Is it possible to not be in a reality at any given time? A state of nothingness, if you will? I guess we’re getting pretty nihilistic and that’s probably out of scope for the thread.
And? There’s still no such thing as a level playing field.[quote=“Vastar, post:247, topic:619”]
If car brand x produces a new car and sells it in 10 different colours you´d say that they are selling 10 different cars?
[/quote]
Different: distinct; separate.
Yes, I would. Would I say they’re different models? Different makes? No. Would I say they’re different cars? Absolutely I would. Even if they made two cars of the exact same model and color, I’d say they’re different. It’s logic.
If you have two cubes that share all of the same properties, you can say Cube(A) and Cube(B) (A has the property of being a cube, B has the property of being a cube) but you cannot say A=B so long as you have two cubes and one is being “named” A and the other is being “named” B. You can only say A=B if one cube is named “A” and the same cube is named “B” (picture this like two Velcro tags being placed on the cube at the same time. It is both A and B.). Otherwise, so long as there is more than one cube, they will always have at least one property that is different because they cannot inhabit the same physical space at the same time. So they are different because they are separate.[quote=“Heurazio, post:249, topic:619”]
Some may say “skins” are benefits because skins and looks are an important aspect of an MMO for a lot of people

I again offer the argument that Boundless devs seem to be working hard to make the wearables horizontal instead of vertical. The only argument I see against offering wearables or skins is that they’re exclusive, to which I say that this is the point.
I think this is generally agreed upon by all participants of this conversation at this point. The question right now revolves around aesthetic and vanity items.
