I mean with plat now being about 5 or 10x more important than it once was why not permanently reduce prices a little? Ik you devs have seen the complaints of people who got hooked on this game not only cuz it's FtP but WAS Free to Win!
Plus cheaper the plat, more plat bought, cheaper the platinum shop items will be in gold so less people complaining about having to use energy! 3problem fixes in one?[emoji1]

Hmmm... Yea plat is very expensive indeed.
To be honest AL is the most expensive game I've ever played, with the most expensive in-game currency (plat) I've ever seen.
Here's a list of some games I've played and some of their ingame currency prices.
Dead Trigger 2: 8.99€=1000 gold/17.99€=2500 gold
Clash of Clans: 8.99€=1200 gems/17.99€=2500 gems/44.99€=6500 gems
Trials Frontier: 8.99€=450 gems/ 17.99€=1000 gems
Infinity Blade III: 8.99€=1250 chips/ 17.99€=2500 chips
...........
Arcane Legends: 8.99€=75 plat/17.99€=165 plat
You guys see any differences? I do...

I see the difference that these games do not link with eachother, therefore the platinum component in those games has other usages which may let the price differ.

I do agree in bringing platinum price down. $89.00 to be able to respec a few times, use a few elixirs and open up some crates isn't really great. Just saying. Though a platinum sale for winter event would be fantastic! :)

That is your opinion.
No by that I mean you can get a lot more done with their currency where as to I was only hyped to buy plat on my first and last purchase which was sadly like 8.99or something like that??.... Never again.

Its true. I have played lots games too where you get more stuffs in the same amount of real money than we get in AL.
Spend 90-100$ and you can do preety good.
For example NORDUS TOP ELEVEN, you can win the season and Champions league if you spend 100$.
Storm 8 MMO games, You can beat any top players without spending $ but with 100$ you can get to top quickest.
Epic dual, in 100$ you can get 2nd best gear sets and rule that level.
High school chaos MMO, you can get that Op heart breaker gear in 20$.

In AL, 90 ish $, you get 1700 plats which gives 68 ankhs which can give you 68*70k= 4.76m
To get competitive gear you need more 3x 1700 plats. Almost 400$.

Price is still high IMO
8.99€ for 75 plat... I couldn't believe it when I started playing this game. That's enough for 5 locks only
And 4€+ for 30 plat, what if I wanted to change my ign what should I do? Spend 4.49€?

Not to be harsh guys but lowering plat price (?) that's one of those old requests...many people thought of that and posted...did you see any difference? I don't think so, IMO it hasn't changed a bit. Of course there are plat sales but cmon STS just lower the plat prices prices a bit even if it's just a bit it would really help for plat users. IN the other hand we can't blame STS, this is their way of earning money tho I agree, it's expensive
Just my opinion.. I respect others as well

I'm not asking for a lower price no.

Also, I don't think STS knows how much 1000 dollars is, let alone 100.
