Guild Wars 2

They don’t give you much money in NA and Europe, and just make the game feel cheap, and like a 7 year old Korean game. Also.. Is it true that Anet hardly receives any money from the gem store? That’s funny.. I spelled Pakitteno correctly and it changed it. to pakitteno.. what?

I have no idea what you mean about Guild Wars 2 having “mechanical game originating in Japan” so I cannot respond to that part of your question. But the Gem store, along with the box sales, is how ArenaNet funds the game. I do not know the percentage of the income that ArenaNet gets from Gem sales but they do get income from it.

And the reason the name of the “mechanical game originating in Japan” was altered in your post was because the part that was removed is a term that can be used as a racial slur. Therefore the censor kitten scratched it into the cat box and moved on.

A-net doesn’t actually get the money, its Ncsoft the publisher, it was their idea that to get certain things you need to have really good luck.

until you or someone can prove to them that direct and probably more expensive just weapon/armor skin purchases is more profitable it won’t change.
but Anet doesn’t actually get the money to put back into Gw2 it all goes to Ncsoft which then goes to their other MMOs which are honestly crappier and not has popular, to make them better or get the name out more.

Dontain, what have you unleashed upon us.

Oh the recieve plenty of money. If they didn’t you wouldn’t be able to buy gems with gold.

The gems available for gold is a finite resource. If players don’t buy gems with real cash and exchange it for gold there is none for you to buy. so every gem in game has real cash behind it.

And no gems people buy and directly buy things do not end up for you to buy with gold. Once gems are used to buy stuff they cease to be. The gold/gem exchange is purely player driven
