wow, thank you captain obvious.
you don’t quite read your own post. you used token as the example of items people couldn’t get if they didn’t spend real money.
this is simply not true. “Piriot.”
IMC needs to be able to generate revenue to pay for the costs of running the servers. If they don’t sell cash-shop items, the game loses money. and if the game loses money, it shuts down.
it would more “unfair” to allow in-game selling of premium items, because then the game would devolve into a pay2win economy. the “whales” (players who have a lot of real money they can and will spend on the game) will simply buy tons and tons of whatever items are popular and flood the market with them. then all the silver ends up in their pockets, and everyone complains you have to buy TP to make money in this game.
