The only thing they could do is maybe change what they are baiting you into paying for.
I can see his points on the competitive pve creating p2w but he also said 1 thing i keep saying otherwise. blue wards cost $ to make enchants work 100%. u can buy them with AD - meaning not p2w just quicker for lazy people
Fanboys wont ever grasp this simple fact.
When you want to make money you need to strike a balance between the prices you ask and if users feel like they get proper value for their money, otherwise you won't sell anything.
Correct me if I am wrong as I am not max level and have not dealt with this issue directly yet but isn't the "blue ward" only purchasable through the Zen Market? I'm not counting people that buy them from the Zen Market and then put it on the AH...I'm talking originally.
They will always make money. But they will make a LOT more money if the prices were not so ridiculously high. Like i said in anotherr thread, a 1 out 10 ppl will eventually buy a 40 EUR mount. If the mount was 10-15-20 EUR all these 10 ppl will buy at least one mount. Guess which one brings more money. Simply because the price is normal thus more ppl can and will afford it. The respec cost ~6 EUR which is ridiculous. But if it costs 1 EUR probably ppl will be respecing constantly - just because the price is realistic and not incredibly ridiculous. In fact if they lower the prices they will make a lot more money, a LOT more...
I agree whole heatedly with you on this. Less is more in cases with this, they will expand their window of "buyers" if the prices were adjusted.
Because I am just going to assume that most people are like me when it comes to gaming prices and such and it does not take but about 10 seconds to press "Y" in game and glance at these prices and laugh your *** off at them and close that window out and never look at it again. Completely ridiculous.

Not sure what you think it is that I am not grasping but I agree with you. Their does have to be a balance, and maybe their is already and I'm just to tight to spend anything.
In my opinion the prices are ridiculous, but their doesn't really seem like their is a shortage of people running around on Spiders or the $40 mounts so maybe they got the gaming community figured out already and know enough people will spend that kind of money on things.
I just would hate to see the game's population deteriorate due to prices on stuff because I like the game.
I have no fracking idea what is going through their minds when they choose to pollute the board like this.
The only real shame is the game is quite good and fun to play but not worth it for the players that aren't prepared to spend $1,000 to pump up their toons on a game. Oh, btw, the $160 enchants give the player 30% on crit to stun the enemy and works in PvP. Think about a rogue that mass crits in rapid succession.....stun lock to death much?
You can get them by praying for 7 days, chance, and other ways which i'm spacing at the moment, but i know i've gotten them from other sources than the zen market. Although, what is the difference with getting them in game or the AH?
Because anyone cares what some streamer says is the way the game should be played. OH NO Kripparian isn't playing out game oh woah is me. He *****ed about all the things in PoE too.
No, you can also get a crate every 7 days with your celestial coin that has a chance to contain a blue ward.
First of all: I really like this game. It is really fun. But what I dont like is especially the topic "enchantments". If you want to get high end enchantments you have to spend ridiculous amounts of AD on the AH (for the radiant, dark etc. enchantments) and if you want to get a weapon enchantment you have to pay zen because the chest you get 1 time PER WEEK does not guarantee you a blue ward item.
Also I dislike it that there is no real place to farm the non-weapon enchantments other than maybe epic dungeons but since everyone rolls need on every enchantment the chances are very slim to get the enchantments you acutally need.
The Problem I see here is once more content and higher Tier-Levels will be released people who do not pay are cut off from any serious progression which should not be the case in an MMO.
I am personally totally fine to pay for bags, to pay for character slots to pay for bank slots etc. But what I dont like is the fact that if you dont spent money on enchantments (and they are quite powerful) you will be cut off from any progression at a certain point.
It's just the nature of "F2P" games. You just can't blame them from a business perspective. But as a consumer, yes it always blows.
A bit of nostalgia for the old timers.
PVP guide - Keeping it fun with the basics.
PoE has a huge issue with stat weights, and a disparity between melee and ranged and elemental and physical damage. He wasn't wrong in those regards, so he's got SOME insight.
Some folks will listen to what he says, will avoid the game because they have learned to trust in his judgement and believe in his rationalization, you'll just have to live with that.
A good player tries to push a game to be designed as best it can be, a bad gamer takes it all at face value and accepts the <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font>, much like a person in an abusive relationship, constantly going out of their way to badly defend their "beloved"
