They won’t change their business plan, because 10 dudes are complaining on forums, you need to grow up.
If you think this game is worth what they are asking then man i feel bad for you buddy. I have this here bag of magic beans…

what do you expect from a f2p game? Is this your first free2play game? Because if you’ve been playing f2p games, these prices shouldn’t be surprising to you
10 dude on the forums, no, but it seems like there is a lot more than 10 people who were quite unhappy with the state of the game yesterday. Adding in over-priced DLC packs to further monetize a broken game probably won’t cheer many of them up either.
You missed the part he asked if the game is worth the price. Has nothing to do with other f2p titles prices, unless their games were also effectively un-playable laggy messes. Truthfully I think pretty much anyone willing to spend money on the game in the current state doesn’t really properly value the currency they’re spending.
It’s a bit of a relief to see so many people voicing their dissatisfaction with their wallets. Whales who throw money at everything that looks the tiniest bit appealing are the reason the gaming industry has become so incredibly money-focused anyway.

Yep this is the first F2P mmo i have tried and it will be the last.
PS. i bought all the founders packs twice the ones i could of bought and seeing these “beguinner and veterans packs and the costs and value” eh im quitting this ■■■■ storm of a game, gave them way to much money and way to much time already. 800hrs and over 100US$. Was not worth.

This is how I know you are retarded; never did I condone purchase of said product. Hence I stated a math play by play of what you’re tiny mind would not be able to process. I did you a service and you talk high and mighty like a pleb.
This is just marketing; it’s simple. You want to vote? Don’t buy period
Don’t let your emotions dictate your logical processes.
Bruh… what’s with the limit ffs. I really don’t mind the veteran pack itself since the dungeon resets are kinda worth it but the limit is so cringy. Let us buy how many we want yo.

Steam won’t take them down but after the initial suckers pay that high of a price for something that won’t get them through the month, then you will see IMC hit a wall. They will roll out purchasable TP soon which would be the next logical step. After that well starts to dry up, then you will see the panic button get hit. The packs will see a drastic discount, which is normal for most MMORPG’s. That will piss off those that paid full price for it but that is just how the system works. Then, like other MMO’s, there’s a good chance that those that waited will be able to double dip if they are first time spenders. The TP market will be far more expanded than it is now & some items will have weekly discounts/deals.
Until then. The IMC fishing rod needs some foolish fish to hook…

Yup! Token prices on the market are going up like crazy right now.
Goldsellers have won this game. GG IMC!
‘Exclusive for SA’ 
how did Gold sellers won the game? What do you expect… token price will drop?
Because they are still there, and cheaper than steam DLC in my country?
Lol they can do somthing good at all?imc is failing hard.
Well it’s either you buy the pack or risk of getting banned for using gold sellers. Up to you really
If no one buys it IMC knows they ■■■■■■ up and has a chance to change their market scheme because we’re talking about money. As for the Token to Silver blame the “root” why no one sells tokens for silver anymore.
It’s not a problem to some founder players because most of them have a lot of stacks including me ( I have 1 year stack of tokens no bragging intended ). Most likely this is a trap for players who doesn’t have token status for themselves and is overwhelmed by the retarded restrictions of the game.
Great idea, let’s complain about bots in the game but consider buying gold from them.
Sounds about right.
Sure. I don’t mean to be rude. It’s just that I don’t really believe it’ll work at all.

Let’s put this into perspective; Tokens are what; like; 400-800k and will rise? Now here goes a theory; no one buys packs but all tokens are bought out. Tokens go from 400k to 2-3m. Because well; Gold sellers will still sell their product for 1 dollar 100k? I think. SO what happens when the token well dries out? People are forced to buy packs to get their token. Prices will never drop again.
I think at the current state of the game, the amount to spend on this game should be no more than 5-7 € per month. It’s open beta and you really think that it’s ok to charge so much money for some token? The only reason I’d spend money is to get a token and maybe some costume, I don’t need that other stuff (megaphone,soul crystal,warp scroll) that I get every day I play alongside[free TP] and never even use…
Even more those potions.
You don’t need potions ingame since you have heal and bonfires…
Please, sell TP for reasonable prices, we in Europe aren’t some rich folks in contrast to Singapore/Malaysia [where only the rich have i-net and time to play anyway], in Germany we have many jobs that pay like 8,50€/h wages [especially jobs for high schooler/students].
Rich people don’t play MMORPGs anyway, because they can buy&do many other/better things with their money [travel the world, climb Mount Everest, go to Africa to shoot some lions, cruise the streets with their sports cars e.g.]…
Best option would be: make iToS a game with a low monthly subscription fee (around 5€/6$) with ± half the benefits of a token(3-5 item sales per day, 15% more exp per monsterkill and so on). Then sell additional benefits via token and cheaper TP to get things like costumes, hairstyles, etc.
It would be better for you because
1.: even the botters had to pay to play the game, making it less appealing to create dozens of botting accounts and increase the costs of buying silver exponentially.
2.: You guys had a rough estimate idea of how many players are around just looking at your bank account every month.
3.: You had more regular income and could hire staff accordingly.
I payed subscription fees for EuRO(European Ragnarok Online) for several years and I think that a subscription-based game is still the best solution.
However, considering the economical situation in Europe right now and the
huge differences between all the countries in Europe and the jobs/payment
(+ the aspect that the game is obviously aiming at the younger generations), I think that the fees should not exceed 10€/month after Open Beta ends and not 7€ during OB, because seriously, the game is facing several crisises right now and losing its player base due to the lack of work force of IMC to address the most problems efficiently.
