The Soapbox: The hidden perils of Guild Wars 2's microtransactions

Mar 21st 2012 4:16PM (Massively)
@(Unverified) I think you are forgetting that anyone can be 'gem-sellers', except people who have absolute no disposable income or chose not to, and these two groups won't probably not go to gold-sellers (third parties) to buy gold anyway. So if the price of gems sky-rockets, then that will make more people buy gems from ANet, which will then increase the supply and decrease the price (if the economy is anywhere close to being healthy).

I haven't followed the D3 nerdrage so I can't really comment that one. But don't say that 'people' do this and 'people' do that, and then assume it's the same group of people.

Sure you can buy gems with real money, and then sell them for gold to get the best gear on the market, but this would most likely be doable by RMT with a third gold-selling part. Now at least that money goes to arenanet. And since GW2 won't have the dreaded gear-grind, I'm totally fine with it. The best part is that all items in the store can be bought with ingame gold.

ArenaNet confirms Guild Wars 2 beta invites are in progress

@(Unverified) I read that the "beta weekend events" would start at the end of April, so I would guess that those are the ones that Pre-purchase-people get automatic invites to.

@(Unverified) Just curious, how many hours have you logged into GW2?

I does sound like what you and Elisabeth are saying regarding 'roles' is pretty close to the same, imo. And I don't remember it saying in this article that you can spec into 'tank' or 'healer' and then just performing one of those classical roles.

EVE Online nukes over a thousand botters from orbit

It will be interesting to see if these bannings will drive up the price of ore/minerals, and as a consequence, the price of ships etc. That has always been the fear when discussing the removal of bots. Hopefully a price increase in ore would be countered by an increase in legit miners.

Custom-tailor your character with Guild Wars 2's traits and attributes

Yup, pretty sad to see. Why can people not wait until they get the hands on the game and see how this system works (together with all other systems) before blowing a fuse?

I think you answered your own question regarding 'healers': Self-heal is much more powerful even if you've traited to have an +% bonus in outgoing heals. Healing becomes a part of the 'support' term together with damage mitigation and damage increase etc. And since support is focused on putting out area-of-effects the gameplay differs significantly compared to the wack-a-mole of healing in other mmo's.
