First off thanks for all the info on what’s coming and what is. I gained goosebumps on my skin while reading the announcement. Then I gained a rashed skin when I read deeper and signed in.

There is some hate about cleanse points costing cubits. To me this is perfectly normal in all mmo’s. However until level 10ish in all mmo’s you can respec/clense a few times for free. As a new player it’s expected to have trial and error that you shouldn’t have to pay for with real money.
What does irritate me to no end is that your making us Pay real money NOW to use our 3 characters to keep testing (having to buy the other 2 out of debt),and paying real money Now before live or the new universe to keep testing and playing with different builds and cleansing.
WTF? You want us to keep testing and giving feedback, don’t charge us now. Most of us already splurged and spent a ton of money on upgraded accounts. This to me is an announcement that your milking us (your backers) before it even goes live. We’re down to one character now in live, and for me I WILL NOT spend money to get my other 2 out of debt jail to keep testing for you BULLCRAP! You want me to keep playing and testing you let me do it with what I want to test with. Not force me to use one character, then SPEND money for clense points so I can keep testing. You can’t make us spend more money on something we can’t use in live. That’s unjust.
I will not play until the new universe is live now. I will not spend money to get my other 2 characters out of debt. We are pretty much forced into crafter, hunter, gatherer, builder. Being a crafter will be most boring because you literally can’t do anything else well, but stand there feeding machines all day. You will have to spend real money if you want to do anything else in the game at all, other than one thing. That is not boundless, its cashless. Unless cubits are dirt cheap.
Even Jiivita recognized that even to start in this new build, one really needs to have at least a gatherer, because by level ten you already have to start spending points that really define your specific needs, just to go through the tutorial and making it off to other planets. That again isn’t boundless. Its a roadblock thrown in , and is fixed by buying your way around it. I DO fully understand cash shops and their need. BUT you shouldn’t force us to have so many limits in areas that make us spend money. We all have to start off crafting. Advertise the game that it’s 39.00 bucks, but you will need so many cubits if you want to move into any other play mode than what you have to be in the beginning tutorial.
EDIT (egg on the face) I will leave this whole thing up because I will own up to my mistakes. But I did see that my other 2 characters are there. In game however it says I only have 1 of 10 available, leaving me to believe that the others were gone and would have to buy them back. James notes actually say it’s this way so I am confused why I can even access my other 2.
