Is this some cruel joke?

I haven't seen anything to make up for the issues that have occurred over the last month.

So far they have given us an expansion with graphics improvements 3 years out of date.
PWI has jacked up prices of Ocean Orbs by 40% and doubled the price of "Dragon's Fire Pack x 20".
PWI, if you are having trouble remembering the prices, it was 25 gold for Ocean Orb and 3.15 gold for the "Dragon's Fire Pack x 20". It seems you guys stuffed up and are now penalizing the honest and loyal players for your mistakes.
The new expansion gave us useless free gifts, which were only worth NPC'ing. The worthwhile gifts we are being charged for. Seriously! I can't remember the last time I was given a gift and asked to pay for it.
Can anybody remember the last time TW had 80v80 in it. My guess was about 1.5 years ago.
This game is dieing more and more everyday and PWI is doing everything in its power to make it die more quickly.
With the many negative reviews appearing on MMO sites of recent times, there won't be many new players to compensate for many that have left.
To the players, if you have money, it would be wise not to spend any of it on this game until PWI start to show they care as much about the players as they do about their wallets.

    If you have to pay for it, may I ask how was it a gift? Answer that question, then facepalm yourself.

    Prices going up is typical of PWE. They have been doing this for quite a while now, so it shouldnt be a surprise. On the point hat the gifts from the expansion were **** and only npcable... you sir obviously dont know jack about them... lets see.. FREE charms-FREE telestones/essence-FREE telecoustics/horns-FREE hypers-Free +30% exp necky. I dont see whats wrong with those. Oh, and for toons who are leveling before reincarnate get FREE dragon orbs... The point here, is that they are FREE. You didnt have to pay for them, they are truely a free item that was given to us, which in the years of PW, have been some of the best gifts given.

    Ocean Orbs actually have a higher base price, but since they usually only appear in the Boutique while having a sale on them at the same time, it's easy to get confused on the price.

    Also, Dragon's Fires have a normal price much higher than 3.15 gold. Anything less than the normal price is still a sale, regardless of it not being "the best".

    That has to do with them adding new large scale content that makes the older stuff less appealing.
    I am Olba. Not Ol, not Baze nor Blaze. And even less would I go by Olblaze. Please, take a second to read a person's username.
    If you see b:cute be sure to take a second, calm look at anything I said.

    As part of the dragon fire part you also get a platimuin charm...boutique price is 6 gold...so to pay a little over 6 gold for 20 orb pack + the charm is cheap

    Yes, it is a cruel joke. And you will wake up soon, and realize that you're playing a game. That you can walk away from at any time. You don't have to put money into it. Keep farming.
    If you bite some one, they get mad and smack you.
    But if you lick them, you still get the flavor.
    And they think you're weird.

    ^ This..

    Which is also a large reason you don't see 80 vs 80 TW's we're moving on to other, better games with better management.

    Let's be brutally honest here, you should know all this already, OP. But think of it like this. For what endgame gear costs here, you could get next gen console, the "Eldest of the Scrolls written online" (I like this, very cheeky, hehe) and pay your subscriptions for about 5 years. Pay to win games are always going to be false economy, my friend. Wait it out until April :)

    you cant really expect the game to remain the same for 5 years, as well as the prices...

    its free. No like no take.

    Thats either limited to your server, or your factions too small.
    Sanctuary is quit busy, sucks for you guys b:surrender
    With the many negative reviews appearing on MMO sites of recent times, there won't be many new players to compensate for many that have left.
    the reviews are actually still positive. The only negative ones are the butthurtish comments under those reviews made by trolls who quit and still linger around the game.
    To the players, if you have money, it would be wise not to spend any of it on this game until PWI start to show they care as much about the players as they do about their wallets.
    its wise not to spend money and waste it in general. Not just pwi. Remember, we pay to eat unhealthy b:chuckle
