Cash shop speculation

[PSO Addict]

My brother and I shouted "Pay to win!" everytime we purchased scape dolls.

Haha, awesome.

That does kind of suck that you need to use real money to use scapes but in the heat of the moment that's a good selling point. Yet at the same time its kind of scary for someone who REALLY wants to win and spends a crap ton of money.

Wait, hear me out here.

Gravure Mode.

I'd buy that for 100 AC.

Here's an internet.

Needless to say, I probably won't use Gachas much unless they're the only thing FUN can be used for.

I'm sure all those Moon Atomizers will be happy to be used once people don't have a seemingly unending supply of free AC at their disposal.

I predict the prices of Arkz Cash in PSO2 to be somwhere along the lines of:


500AC = $5.00
1000AC = $10.00
2000AC = $20.00
3000AC = $30.00
5000AC = $50.00
10000AC = $100.00

Doesn't really matter at this point even if we knew the correct AC = Yen as we don't know how much AC stuff will cost.

I predict the prices of Arkz Cash in PSO2 to be somwhere along the lines of:

1000AC = $10.00

That sounds about the same as most other P2W games.

Players should be expecting all consumables, permanent items, and account services to be expensive. If we are lucky timed deco items will be cheap.

I view this as unlikely considering how much effort SEGA has actually put into player feedback as far as that would go to this point. If that comes up, something might actually happen quickly. I'm positive it would be.

1000AC = $10.00

10000AC = $100.00

No. It's a common business practice to 'discount' prices the more of something you're offering. So using that template, it'd look something more like this:

500 AC - $6
1000 - $10
2500 - $20
5000 - $35
10000 - $60

By doing it like this, they're going to abuse your brain's reasoning and logic ability to conclude that 10000 is the best deal for the price, and while you could probaby get by with 2500, the fact that you get 4 times as much for 3 times the price will ultimately sway many purchasers, and in the end Sega still scores a nice profit equivalent to what would have been 4 months subscription under normal P2P terms.
