"currency fluctuations, distribution costs, taxes and market conditions in addition to the cost of goods are all contributing factors when setting pricing. These vary dramatically between NA and EU and our pricing is competitive and adjusted accordingly."

@meanieme Well, after watching the video I'm very disappointed. Graphically it looks about 8 years old, and while the subject could have been interesting - it just seems like its poorly done. Rather annoyed, I wanted to like this.
Was looking forward to this but the lackluster char creation already is putting me in a 'meh' mood. With so many other games already showing what can be done with character creation (which is a major part of getting a player to bond with his/her character, thus reinforcing player retention) I have no patience any more with dev's who think they can get by with circa 2004 char creation sets.
