Default LON RMT

After reading this thread I had to discuss the RMT aspect of this without derailing the "link the items you bought thread".

Wow people who I've seen openly attack RMT are sucking on the LON tit and loving it. Don't throw me this bullshit "you can get them as drops too" argument, cause you can get attunable fabled items as drops OR you can pay real cash to get them without the effort. In game effort replaced by out of game cash. That power clicky is the best power item in the game and the rate at which it is distributed on the servers is directly proportional to how many real money transfers are made for in game items.

Pretty sad state of affairs. I don't think the 2.99 is a big deal but when you consider the tactic of coercing ALL of your subscriptions to pay the money or miss out on such a huge piece of functionality... its shady. Especially after the promise was made that RMT would be kept on SE servers ONLY.

I don't care too much about discoveries... but allowing it to be listed as "first on server" when only a portion of the server was given the opportunity... certainly you can see how its a rigged fight.

To me this is a clear indication of the future direction of EQ2. I don't like to make rash decisions but atm I'm seriously considering where I invest my leisure time.

Smed has publicly stated that all future SOE games are free to play with purchasable in-game items .. they are moving EQ2 in this direction as well in the most subtle method they can.

But good call on this, SOE is the biggest plat farmer out there. They need to stop coming up with plat farming schemes and hire more people and actually develop their game .. not just lubricate their slot machine.

Like someone else said, the item rewards should stress style over substance.

(although with me, style sometimes IS substance! ha!)

Don't forget they originally wanted to make all servers Exchange servers.
