Guys it's okay just calm down. Plat is optional and no one forces you to buy it! I have a main level 65 along with 4 other characters and I didnt spend a dime on the game! Find a way around stuff. Make gold to buy winter items so you don't have to buy plat if it's going to be this much big of a deal.

Thanks

I enjoy playing the game not farming gold to buy items earned by someone who feels it appropriate to spend 30$ an hour or so on the game.

Never got Finished !!! As I was saying I'm Now Stuck with a Quest I can't Finish Unless I Pay Another 2Plat Because of Greedy Peeps Going Straight to Boss !! I know This is Not P/Ls Fault But Surely if I Can't get quest Finished I Shud get Free Access to Do So, That's Why I payed Plat for in the First Place !!! Apart from That I'm ok with winter festival if u want to keep Paying it's up to each Player, And if your going in their Farming Then Don't Ruin it For Everyone Else By Going Straight to Boss.. I Really Hope you look into this P/L As it Definetly Not Right And A Complete Waste of Plat... I'm Really Pissed at This !!!

To begin with, I'm gonna have to say that I'm disappointed at the way that this has gone.

I wrote a long and lengthy post that was for the most part, well received. This is the type of thing that should be avoided. It worsens perceptions that STS has become too plat intensive to play.

Don't charge for runs.

My recommendation?

Tomorrow, release a patch so that runs are free. Charge for access if necessary - a 1 time fee and leave it at that.


Edit:
You also seem to have a PR disaster brewing, so it would be advisable to address it - maybe refund plat for those that have paid?

[Buubuuftw]

This would be a good time for:

People
Order
Our
Patties!

No matter how outrageous the price of a campaign or map is, there will always be those people who blow ALL their money on hundreds of thousands of plat. Not trying to rage or anything but I think STS needs to think about the customers that DON'T have unlimited plat like they used back when they didnt pressure people to buy plat. I think all the plat-pressure all started with the DotD and Vincent the Vendor. People started to see all these new cool "extras" that they just couldn't resist to buy. I think maybe a "season pass" kind of thing can be a compromise? And if you thing im raging then feel free to remove this post STS. Other then that, Merry Christmas. (maybe I will just do one more run for the wings =/)

Everyone has a breaking point. The point is, for many players, this campaign is approaching it.

[Gluttony]

My BLOG closing comments: in the future STS should gather a group of individuals such as the guardians of Alterra or those who were awarded the founders' helm and run these new ideas past them. They have been here quite a while and understand what is good and bad about certain aspects of the game.

I recall a time where the developers actually listened to the community and wanted to find a happy medium. I understand that you cannot make everyone happy all the time, but with a 10+ page thread filled with 90% of complaints can you really say you made anyone happy?

[Cascade]

I totally agree about having a group of people where you run ideas by them before you release them. +1

You realize of course that PL will set the trends for what happens in SL? It is run by the same company with the same objectives in mind - maximizing revenues.
