“We founded ArenaNet to innovate, so Guild Wars 2 is our opportunity to question everything, to make a game that defies existing conventions.” – Mike O’Brien
Then let me take this opportunity to question the Lock Box scam. To question why weapon tickets are behind such a horrible system. This doesn’t defy existing conventions but makes an existing convention worse. This “gem” of a game is tarnished by it. This is not innovation.
This is my suggestion to you. Stop with the lock box scam (might as we be snake oil). Stop wasting our time and money with this. Start selling these weapon skins via the gem store. The Braham and Roxy items were a great start!
