New Pyroxene Shop Items - 3/13 Update

[Skyly HUmar]

I've never cubed a 10*, I get too damn happy when I actually find one :P

Yeah, they're definitely promoting premium by doing this, which is perfectly fine, but it's flirting dangerously with "pay to win" especially with 10* drop rates as impossibly bad as they are. Obviously they should seek to give you incentive to buy premium, but trying to make a tier of weaponry that much harder to get to for non-premium users isn't a good way of doing so, in my opinion.

Not saying rares should be effortless to obtain, but at least making the upgradable weapons 9* would be a little more fair.

This. Ive been searching for that wl ever since vh mode came out, and ive never run into one. Well, i could always do mines>tundra>desert, but i doubt ill be able to 50% this one anytime soon.

Aya, sweetie, you can't play if you're dead.

The hidden third model (adopted by blizzard) is to have a P2P structure while also maintaining a cash shop so they can have their cake and eat it too. But this is extremely difficult to justify to most players and unless you get a game like WoW where people couldn't quit if they tried, it probably won't pan out too well.

Guild Wars and Guild Wars 2 do something similar and yes it's my favorite payment model because it also means the cash shop stuff can be better balanced, and keeps things like RMT bots from having easy access. (The only reason GW2 had RMT bots at all is because of that same information leak Sega and a lot of other companies mentioned). I also don't mind free to play games that have a one time buy pack or bonus for spending a certain ammount that gets you lots of permanent stuff. I don't like temporary services because they make me feel like I have to play constantly to get my monies worth.

You hit the nail on the head with the rest too of course but that stood out to me the most.

We thought we knew Aya but we don't she on a whole new lvl of immortality!

Aya is Skynet

I thought Aya was the embodiment of glamour glitter fashion and fame?

Mind = blown

SEGA's very good at timing when mech guns will be released, since when I get the lastest like top 3 mechguns, they release more so I'm like #5-6 now.

GW/GW2 are actually B2P and manage to not shit on players with their cash shop. You don't need to use it at all—and even then, GW2 allows you to buy the cash shop currency using ingame money.
