Ice 'Em Aura LVL 50 Ice Tank
Darq Widow Fortune LVL 50 Fortunata (200% rech/Night Widow 192.5% rech)--thanks issue 19!
Dear lord, what I wouldn't give just for that.

I agree with this with one exception. Eve Online sells in-game currency for real money at a rate that eliminated gold farmers. It stabilized the ingame economy. That may not work here as so much in EO is time and effort related vs instaloot.
I don't want to list specific items as that's largely pointless, so let me split the list into things I'm fine paying extra (beyond the 400 VIP points) for and things I don't feel I should be asked to pay for or should ever be offered.
Things I'll pay for: 1. Anything purely cosmetic. Costume pieces, effects, customization options, props, animation options, emotes, title colours and so on. 2. Anything purely for convenience. Remote Tailor access, remote Market access, larger Global Friends list, more extra build slots, etc. 3. Anything that's purely pointless. Non-combat untargetable pets, the Rock and Snowball powers, access to a purely cosmetic VIP lounge somewhere, that sort of thing. *I'd be willing to pay for these things even if they aren't technically new additions, but I'm paying to unlock them at character creation as opposed to unlocking them via in-game achievements. Things I feel I'm entitled to as a VIP: 1. Powers-related additions. New powersets, new ATs, proliferated old powersets, revamped old powersets, new power pools, epic pools and patron pools, new character-specific tempermanent power and things of that nature. 2. World-related additions. New zones, new instance tilesets, revamped zones, new rooms added to old tilesets, mini-zones, hub-zones and such. 3. Mission-related additions. New story arcs, new task forces, new trials, new raids, new contacts, new sources of lore or storyline information and suchforth. 4. Subsystem-related additions. New currencies, new game systems (Inventions/Architect/Incarnates), new types of activities and everything else like this. *I CAN be persuaded to show understanding if large additions in at least three of the above four categories above and beyond the norm are added in the game as a paid expansion, but it needs to be BIG. Things I feel should never be sold for real money: 1. Influence. Never, ever. 2. Loot of any kind. Enhancements, recipes, salvage, tickets, merits, shards, threads, components or anything else of the sort. Just no. 3. Experience and levels, or boosts to either of those. Under no circumstances. 4. Lifting game balance restrictions. Taking powers earlier than normal, putting more than six slots in powers, trading powers for slots, slots for powers, using enhancements below their minimum level or above their maximum level, entering into otherwise forbidden places. Do not. 5. Character power. Powers, slots, Incarnate boosts, buffs and so on. Do not want. That about covers it. |
I would also pay for more base options: More cosmetic options and more storage options.
Things I'd like to see that shouldn't be pay-for:
1. A recall friend that works across zones/instances.
2. Better animations for a lot of sets, especially Broadsword. I play Aion and the animations there are amazing.
3. The ability to pay rent with a button on the SG list. It's annoying to have to go see the SG registrar.
Edit: I'd also pay for the ability to have more than 36 characters on a server. I'm currently at 33 on my main server and it's just not enough.

Governments have fallen to the power of social media. Gaming companies can too.
AND I WOULD USE EVERY LAST ONE OF THEM AND DEMAND MORE.
Lisa-Would pay RL cashes for this
