    Well you could buy the boutique items from other players with ingame coins.

    But a F2p game has to make it money somehow right? Otherwise it wouldnt survive

    You can always buy gold ingame with coins through the auction house.
    But id suggest just saving up coins from sellign DQ items to people and buying what you need to

    Think about it this way. Mounts start becoming available at level 20. While a level 20 *can* save 1m-4m coins for a mount... when was the last time you saw one? :P

    lets look at it from a diferent angle litle Adannedhel..gona write a example below

    lets say ur wery good with programing and stuff with games so u say "hey why wouldnt i make a game :D?" so u do and work hard for days hours ewen years, litle detail by detail working slowly but its still just a litle project.So u decide hey why not make it a MMO which u do and after all the hard backbreaking work u put into it u MUST decide if it will be free or pay to play.

    pw went both ways it has stuff u can buy with real-life money or u can u can buy them off other players(like in my case)b:cute

    Sanctuarys gold price is about....110k-120k
    the priceof boutique clothes waries on the colour

    The world is pay to play. If PWI was completely free in all aspects then it would not exist, because it takes a lot of people to present such a polished product, and those people have bills to pay :D

    Are you SERIOUS!!! Bills? pfft.. !!! LOL!! I like the way you put it as a "polished" product. I think that nails it pretty much. Its not perfect but its all shiny and prettiful.

    Then again, I'm wondering if your "spoons" are polished! :)

    Seriously tho, honestly this question has no baring whatsoever. You CAN buy things from the boutique with ingame money. You just have to buy the gold to do so out of the auction house. :)

    I have a phoenix, hercules, maxed Skymanta Shade, Nienbeast, fashions, hp charms lots of dragon orbs etc. All of that is from the cash shop and all of it I spent a total of ZERO real dollars on.

    I don't see what your complaint is.

    You have a great point, one of the reasons I love PWi is because I don't necessarily HAVE to pay. As for my spoons, see for yourself

    That is because you get paid to play it..... Although I have sure you are glad that they HAVE to pay you.

    How do you eat soup with a spoon full of holes?

    One of my favorite aspects as far as the cash shop in PWI is that they made it extremely easy and safe to purchase gold ingame that you can spend on whatever you want. It's much more reliable than other systems I could imagine.

    That is by far what impressed me the most about this game when I started. It is so much safer to purchase gold that way.

    Well he didn't say he ate soup with spoons, just that he ate with spoons. Altho I don't see how chinese ppl eat rice with chop sticks either. *shrugs*

    And yes the game I played before this, we wasn't allowed to trade boutique items in game at all. You got what u paid for and it was all yours. So not only can u ingame trade items but money as well? As far as I'm concerned this game is top notch in this area.

    Make sure its stew and not soup. Some nice thick stew. Or, uhhhh, some cereal?

    Ontopic: there are so many games with a fundamental flaw in their cash shop philosophy, this one was refreshingly different.

    They have holes because I'm so baller that I make myself take extra time eating just so I can use a golden spoon. (just kidding, I probably couldn't afford that spoon)
