with getting stronger, farming & quests (leveling) there is more to do than time available
crafting, gaining costumes... there is a lot if you want
reincarnations, guildquests, play the game with reading the questtext, infiltrate the capital city of the opposite faction, raids, goblinball, summerhold, relax at the tropical atoll, do the race in the desert and and and and ...

while it is true that alcohol and cigarettes (only as an example) are real goods and things in game are not (virtual goods) this was only an example on how you CAN afford these if you WANT
i am totally ok with those who say virtual goods are not worth real $, in general this is my POV too!

its great you can pay subscription of WOW for x$, you can even play WOW for free for 0$ if you play on a private server or set one up yourself (you are even the GM of this server then)
so are we done now with "what is possible to do"?


only because KOE & etherium is a common way this does not mean its the best way

cs items are part of the game although not NEEDED for regular gameplay (no, TOP raids and TOP pvp are not regular gameplay)
cs items can be bought by ingameactivities only IF YOU REALLY WANT (i made it too, so yo can also)
its not the games fault if you find no suitable way for you to gain gold ingame and if you dont want to donate - but still want to have top items
its not the games fault if you want "Perfect balance fairplay ****" and dont play on subscription server

where is the REAL problem? in the attitude of many ppl
this game is as close to perfection for an mmo as it gets (otherwise we all would not play it so much )

Few years ago, I managed to get myself a lot of cash shop items, because they were easier to get (gold was easier to farm, prices were lower).
If I tried to do the same thing now, it would take me 3 times longer.

Yeh that's the problem. They add more and more CS items necessary for competitive gameplay, and at the same time the prizes keeps going up. This doesn't make any sense. If the prizes are to go up in this drastic speed, they should stop adding more CS items that makes your character stronger in any way. It would still take years to farm or LOTS of money to buy all the current items.

Allods is honestly the only game I know that keeps following this same path without doing a shiet about it, even though they constantly get bad critics and reviews and keep losing players. I'm starting to think that they actually want to slowly kill this game, but make as much money as possible all the way to the end.

I watched several "Top 5 most P2W MMORPG's"-videos on youtube and Allods is in pretty much all of them, together with all the Asian grinders. Why even bother putting effort into publishing the game on Steam when the game is still in this bad shape? It will just give the game more bad reputation than before since Steam is a huge games distribution platform and with all the bad reviews being added on the Allods Steam page, the game will just be more widely known as a game not worth spending time on.
