Dual Business Model Idea
Pay to win? Hell no!
Edit: but since I’m not playing anymore and if they don’t want to go back to original ideas for this game, they might as well introduce this. I won’t be around.

It is a win, with GW1 when the game stop selling, they created costume and personally I didn’t mind dishing out a few buck to look awesome. I get to look cool anet get to make money, it is a win win. Since there was no sub fee it was a way we the player help keep the game alive. How else were they going to keep the server running and pay the maintenance fee?

Buying costumes and buying gear from the cash shop are two different things. I’m all in for the first one.

Yes the gear stat changed all that, I would agree never to pay in order to be competitive, but if its cosmetic its all find by me.
The root cause behind this dramatic shift is financial. They weren’t earning enough money. I have always been willing to pay a monthly sub for this game (before now). WHat if some of us could pay a monthly sub and be given the option of buying this gear or even some of the critical components via gems?
ALternatively, if money is the issue, allow us to buy this stuff via gems. It’s a win win….win (The Office) Those who love the grinds can grind and get rewards. Those who hate grinds can do what they love. ANet makes more money.
lol the actual sistem is indirectly aiming on a p2w model. and in any case…
P2W games, are a plague on the gaming panorama.

LOL
I don’t think it has anything to do with money and more to do trying to quickly fill the content gap it has with games like WoW.
I don’t see how adding this new stuff is going to make people buy more gems.
There are making the same mistake ALL NEW MMOs make, The launch with alot of people and then they start leaving because they have finished most of the content. The reaction to this is ALWAYS, Holy crap we need to be more like WoW.
But the closer you become to WoW the more your lack of content compared to WoW sticks out like a sore thumb.
They should stick to there guns and over time launch lots of new fun content. IMO. While still trying to be GW.
There is never “enough.” You are assuming something not demonstrated and asking for something already provided.
They haven’t provided me a way to get this gear without doing dungeons.
