    Yeah but we used to be able to buy new pets and outfits directly. Everyone got what they wanted for a price. It was guaranteed. Now we have nothing but gacha and there is no guarantee of anything. It's effing horrible. People are pissed and getting increasingly fed up. The only thing we can buy directly is OLD stuff ONCE in a while. This business model is failing. The whales are leaving.

    I sure did spend a lot of NX buying a every rebirth outfit that came out.



    Also the third page in this thread is dark and depressing.

    Me too, I used to buy 2-3, I would keep one for myself and sell off the others. They made more money off of me with direct sales, not this gambling gacha crap.

    The model's failing in America. It's killing it out in the East, so our Eastern developer friends aren't likely to try and create catered sales for another region. We've pretty much followed every outfit/pet release to the letter of what Korea has done for the past 5 years or so: they aren't likely to change that unless someone reallllllllllly high up starts to complain as well.

    Well at least you admit it IS failing. I think NA is still under some kind of deadly delusion that this business model is just fine and dandy. That's why what I am saying is not quite FUD guys, maybe not now but we're getting there. It's getting pretty concerning. You know what happens to games that don't make enough money right?

    Yeah...I don't want that to happen. :(

    Except Overwatch's lootboxes are full of purely cosmetic items and have no affect on the gameplay whatsover, which the same can't be said for some of the items released in Mabinogi's gachapons.

    Welcome to Mabinogi Forums, where derailment is always guaranteed.
    We talk about crossing over anime, are you sure the anime isn't crossing over Mabi?

    If anyone's still paying attention, the show had a "blink and you'll miss it" mabi advertisement at the convenience store scene.

    Honestly, why play the game if you do nothing but hate every second of it? This is not me, assuming your one complaint is unjustified, but simply noting that your posts are nothing BUT complaints. Why? It is also imperative to keep in mind that "criticisms are meaningless from those who offer nothing but criticisms". Can we please give it a rest?

    I admit, that was rather depressing. Just a single flash and it looks just the same as the 'fake' anime MMOG giftcard, almost as if it wasn't all that important.
    Was expecting them to use NPCs in a planted event sequence, or fourth wall break somehow.

    Yeah, with gachas left and right, the F2P players have to work their butt off just to get at least one outfit.
    I'm often told by pros that they worked hard for their gold.
    However, then they turn around and open a few stacks of gacha and sell it's goods for millions of gold.
    That does not count as 'working hard'.

    Nearly every people in game are not friendly.

    Not sure what server you are on, but where I'm at me and a lot of other people help and guide new people a lot.
    Might be because of the small population. Makes one really appreciate whats there.

    And to continue on this comment, yeah some people actually do this.

    Makes me happy to have good gold without gacha.
    Means I can teach my ways to new players and help them get on their feet.
    Then I run into them a month later and without any RL money used they got their desired outfit or even wings.

    So proud of them.
    A sense of camaraderie always feels really nice in a community.
    Don't know why some people just be rude and go against such.
