The new item shop isnt very pleasing on the eye, and the price increase on everything is disgusting.
I have played this game since 2008, i have subbed since 2008 , i sub so i can raid, i sub so i can PvP , now i can just go to the item shop and spend less money then my sub and be far better off geared, you are encouraging everyone to skip T1 2 and 3 and buy from the shop to make yourself a quick $ , in so doing killing the lowie tier raids, at the same time we will now have a lot more geared players for T4+, these players now will have AA's and gear, but no experience, you are sending higher end gaming back to the stone age, raiding will become a lot harder because people have not learned the mechanics along the way. So the Pve side of P2W is going to hurt the game a hell of a lot. Hell you can get full T4 or T5 without even raiding lmfao such a stupid dumb ass move.
The PvP side of it, well T2 is not a huge upgrade on T1 granted but... you can now buy T2 armor at pvp 0, whats the incentive to grind to pvp 6 to hit T3 armors/acessories , yes T3 is better, but now people have to grind 6 lvls before they can buy anything of use to upgrade, How long do you think that will hold the attention span of people? i have been subbed since just after launch, i have many toons not at full T2 i have paid you a yearly sub, and now within 5 mins someone can be ahead of me in the game and i have played for 8 years,now we may see a return of players to mini games, new players who want to compete, we will now also see players who create an instant 80 do not know a god damn thing about their class and fill our mini games , like the skill lvl and quality of the minis is not bad enough you want to make it worse by letting this CC warriors weaken the game even further.... so the PvP side of P2W is again Fail.
Now as a Veteran player of 8 years this is where it hurts, i have worked hard for everything i have got over the last 8 years and you now make it so my 8 years work can be wiped out with the swipe of a credit card. I pay a sub, yet now all my hard work can be wiped out in minutes, you put everything price up in the item store, an item store where everything was already over priced, i have played for 8 years but now someone can buy a new lvl 80 and get full t3 pve, a huge 100 slot resource bag, a 200 and odd inventory space , you insult me in your greed, you turn your players upside down and you shake them for every last $ you can get out of them, you give us a crappy veteran vendor that offers very pointless rewards yet give these rewards to those who give you $, the crazy thing is we see no return on this cash, you create a raid finder we didn't ask for, we still can fill raids, and by the way you are making raiding irrelevant with being able to buy T3 T4 and T5 gear, so time well spent in development, we have asked you sooooooo many times to fix the bugs, give us new mini games, but no you just churn out more crap to squeeze every last $ you can out of us, and the worst part of all of this, the broken systems you are creating, the age of pay to win, you know what the very very worst thing is, we see not frigging return of that money into this game , you take from us and its already gone to TSW and Exiles development, your business model is floored, you are thieves .
Signed a very angry a abused veteran of 8 years.
