GW is gonna be interesting too. Guess a lot of people are gonna pick that one up as well, since it has no monthly fees.

With a monthly fee it would be a shame if TOR had any kind of cash shop. Maybe it's okay for strictly cosmetic things but even this kind of blows.

I know a few retired old players that really have nothing to do with their money but spoil their grand kids or buy fake MMO items to get a good laugh from time to time.

If you enjoy it, then it brings you happiness and is worth more then anything could ever charge for it.

You don't have to buy it, but it does no harm to offer it to people who do, assuming they aren't shop a holics and can't control themselves. I don't dictate to other people what they buy, even if I don't think I'd ever do it.

It's kind of like buying a limited collector's edition. You're paying extra for things no one else is really going to be able to get. It's almost the same as having some shop to buy these items with, it just has a limited quantity.


I personally would rather such things be in game for anyone to obtain, from quests or what have you.

Oh I don't have problem with people buying them, it's their money not mine. I'm just frustrated by the fact that they don't seems to understand the cost/value of what they buy...

Well that's a whole other issue. Some people don't care as much about money or might care enough for something that makes them sort of happy for a while. Much like Kai explained.
