    If they still keep the $1 = 1 gold yes...

    Still no confirmation of the price of zen....

    Please respond if the cash items are priced permanently that way and please post if $1 = 100 zen = 1 gold is correct.

    I saw elf wing is 15 gold which is $15. Seriously, I played this game in PW-MY and did not buy a cent because I knew that the PWI will be online someday. This day has come and the price is nothing to sneeze at. Heck, $2.50 for silver heiro that is just 6 to get to $15.

    My point is I could play WoW for the same amount every month. I always thought that for $15 dollars that will go a long way in this game. Given that the client is free which is I think a big plus. The way I intend to play this game will be more expensive.

    Please rethink your prices. This is a good game but I still price it at $15 a month where you could play comfortably, level moderately, giving you the right gaming satisfaction. I reckon that will cost me $25 a month. The price is more that what I value it for.

    Else I will be cheap like in PW-MY and play it horribly slow but at least it will be free. Your call.

    I WAS going to pay for heiros to level at a good pace but now I think i'm going to earn the money ingame instead.
    I like to rub it in. Enjoying the game?

    I looked at the items that intrested me, 2 gold for a Cage, 90 silver for a bronze HP charm. I think it was 3 gold for an inventory stone. I should have really just used print screen ^.^

    When they said they were going to lower prices, I thought they'd actually lower them. 50 cents off of something that was tripled the price of what it should have been was nowhere near enough. I don't care about the rest of the stuff, it's just the hierograms.

    $2.50 is still way too high for silver charms. Maybe a gold one would be OK at $3, but silver ones at least need to be dropped.

    These prices are excessively too high for the games own good. I mean people will put up with some latency issues for cheaper items. And if no one used the cash shop then eventually Everything dies.

    Tho in a semi related note I love the fact that you make people have an account for a week before accessing the shop. That should cut down on people starting and on day one spending a bunch and then quiting on day 3.

    Prices are retardedly high. And this doesn't hurt big guilds like RQ, it hurts the little guys who can't control terrs and can't afford for them. And they don't need to be hurt anymore.

    Fix this ****. You want your community feedback? Here it is.

    I have to agree, I seriously do. I am all for supporting your game, but for people like me, who barely get by as is without paying for extra things, you just alienated me from your cash shop items due to the fact I can't afford to pay for that much, and won't be for a while yet, you'd be best to lower the prices more, or else you will lose many players, specially those who have high lvled characters on MY because the items are STILL cheaper there, and thats including any conversion rates. Seriously mods/admins/devs I love this game (I gave 2 sleepless nights, and 3 full days on your contest for the 10 zen, only to come up short due to one quest that wouldn't work, and a bunch of really crappy drop rates for quests which set me back, A LOT) and I would love to support the game, but I just can't at these prices, do lower them more guys, you made a small step in the right direction.

    That could have been said a bit nicer O.o Your demanding service from a free game >_< The best way to show your dissapointed with the prices is to just say "I don't like these prices" then not buy anything.

    And the community agrees. They're just playing OB so they don't check the forums. These prices really need a look at. The 1 dollar 1 gold conversion is fine, just change the damn prices in the shop.

    Simple, same speed, one requires 20 less levels...thus more money to fly faster at a lower level. If you don't like that, then just get to 50 and buy that one.

    I must say, I was planning to spend a good amount of money (roughly $100) when I got home from work today on the Cash Shop, only to see the prices are soo high that I decided I would not spend any money on the game and just play casually and wait for another mmorpg to come out which would cost me less money to play.

    I feel the exact same way. I was pretty excited about the CS opening before I actually saw the exchange rate.

    That's exactly what I was going to do. I filled in my profile and was about to make a purchase before I saw the prices then stopped.
    I'm not sure if I want to continue playing now.

    Anyone know any good free mmorpg that doesn't cost a fortune to play?

    Maybe they should listen to us and lower the price. I know they have already lost hundreds of dollars in business, if not thousands.

    I agree with the comments about it being way too expensive. Right now I can afford 30 dollars a month in video game goodies. Instead of buying cash shop goodies for this game I get to renew my WoW account for another month or 2. At least with that game I don't need to pay more then 15 bucks a month to get the full funage.

    I also agree the price of gold in this game is just crazy. I came from PW Malaysia and was very excited about finally getting some USA servers. I spent alot of money on cubi gold in PWM. I spent all evening busting butt to get to lvl 10 made my profile logged in to go on a gold shopping spree saw the prices, laughed and logged back out.

    Theres NO WAY Im paying those prices. $63 to get married? Yeah right, keep dreaming... I can buy 100 cubi gold on PW Malaysia for $30. Why in the heck are prices 3x more exspensive here? And the game just started its just ****.

    So more than likely I wont be playing long. I wont be paying that much for gold and when the game gets too boring or hard without it, Im out of here if the prices arent lowered.

    I have to agree with you there Cat. Tripled prices on the cash shop is not worth better translation and slightly less lag.

    Sorry, but i am not buying anything from them after i get done with my free Zen... which i HAVE NOT gotten yet.

    Someone Fix that.

    With the price of Silver HP charm, u Gms really doubt me that: are you guys ever try to play the game like normal player yet? Try to play from lvl 40 to 50, which cost around 5 days, to feel what we are feeling now ^^.

    From lvl 1 to 40, yes I can survive with only one silver charm, it is not so hard. But after that, and especially 60+, when I have to zhen to lvl. 3 hrs normally will burn off a charm... it seems good business for you, but NO. We won't spend money for any HP or MP charm until the price is changed, at least to a more reasonable price.
    If you sell a green charm for 80silver, silver for 1.5 gold, gold for 2.5 gold and plantium for 3.5 gold, it would be better (this is just an example, some player will still think this is expensive ^^).
    And one more thing, where is my freaking experience scroll? It helps us level faster a bit, with our charms are burning for zhen party.
    If you guys waiting for community's responses, those thing above are mine ^^.
    Why...so...serious?

    Even if the prize of Zen itself isn't decreased, or able to be decreased, at least lower the gold cost of things in the cash shop, that would achieve the same result. That result being, happy customers who DON'T boycott your game.
