Dev Update: Update 10 Coming Soon | Forums

@Vegastrash:
but I wanted to understand this part: "Anyone who plays regularly should be able to get everything for free." I'd like to understand what makes you think this.

A slight misunderstanding I think Eno,
I think he means that if a player plays enough of the game, the unlockable content (through acorns) will be available to buy in-game without the need to purchase acorns with "real money"
Meaning one can earn "acorn money" through grinding and gradually earning in-game
Which I believe is actually the case (hopefully)
But in the interest of clarity... can you confirm that this is correct, please?

Ok So, I'll let Shifty publishes the next article in the coming days and we can discuss it more as everyone will have more information.

Thank you!

I agree. Micro transactions are the future. Developers know people will buy it, or they wouldn't create it. If you're a business, why would you not do something that makes you more money? Trials is still a huge amount of content for $40. If they want to add micro transactions it doesn't mother me....as long as you're able to earn the virtual currency needed to access the same items. Anyone who plays regularly should be able to get everything for free.

Here is the thing, I dont care what other people's kids do, I care what my kids do. My kids are straight A students that started hanging out with a bad crowd (Ubisoft), now im getting reports from the school they are slacking off and their grades are slipping. And I found out they have been experimenting with microtransactions behind my back.

If other parents want their kids to grow up and work the pole for microtransactions thats fine. But im not gonna sit back and tell myself its just a phase and they will grow out of it. Sometimes a little tough love is in order. They may resent me for it now, but one day when they transition into adulthood redlynx will hopefully realize the reason ive been so hard on them is because I want to see them succeed.
