I'll probably hop on some time tomorrow. I've also got a family now so I'm limited to a couple of hours in the evening GMT, not like the times I used to be able to be on -_-

this """new"""" rohan = straight in the trash bin
pretty much the same than previous versuions, with even more overpowered and broken gears + overpay2win IM / items. Pulled out from the trash with little to no hopes, sent it back in the trash after 2 days of playing.
It will last just 1 month for sure.
After all IM gift expires and most ppl realize they have to spend more than 50 dollars per month to be at least a decent player.
Hello my friend im a hold player to. not in the day 1 but play since 2008.
Spending money in any game is a Donation for the game. And not your investment. you can play free with out of spending and have fun, or you spend for you get advantages, you need be came the best and kill hall?' you need have the best guear in the server? i dont need that. i like game and like hall in game, and yes i Donate, im not a rich but Donate alot of money but not for kill hall. spending is your choice no une comples you.
And yes the game is pay to win, any game free to play mmorpg you play today is pay to win. Dont have a perfect game where the staff lives on the street with no money. and sustain your perfect game.
People dont like Donate, people like kill hall and always be on top.
Ther is a Donation not investment. If you have 18 year hold You can go play in casino if you like invest and win money wen spending or somting.
Nope, this is not, in any way, a donation. This is a "purchase", as they explicitely state on the item mall. Nowhere it is stated that it is a donation.
It's like having a girlfriend, you go out with her have fun and pay her lunch, to buy her lunch you buy, so it's a purchase but you don't buy the girlfriend itself, and you don't expect anything in return, She breaks up with you, you won't ask for the money in return.
With the game it's the same, you have fun playing and buying but don't expect anything in return.
In the end Rohan is a business. You have no one to blame for these bitter feelings except your attitude to the game.
A business indeed. However there are ways to run as a successful game publisher and ways that make your players angry enough to leave and cause that business to fail. Look around you at some of the more successful games out there. Which ones are thriving and which ones are flopping. The successful ones have a lot in common. They don't sell power-ups in their cash shops. They sell cosmetics, mounts, inventory expanders and things like non-combat pets that do not affect game play itself. They make good money with that and the game does not suffer from external influences like the game publisher themselves.
The most favorable model I have seen is the paid client and free play. Also the free client and paid subscription works well to. In both cases the publisher is under less pressure to provide power ups or game-affecting virtual goods. Players end up better off because the lower monthly cost (if there is one) is often (for most players) less than the monthly cost of a F2P game which depends on the sale of virtual currency alone to survive.
At launch this Rohan seems to have gone the F2P model while omitting the Exchange Market as a means for players to generate virtual currency. While it ensures those players it retains end up being paying players, it destroys half of the desirability to play the game (player commerce). Personally I see this as a thing that will quickly cause this game to fail - I never really liked playing at private servers that did not have an exchange market and never stayed with them longer than a week or two. I am looking at this 'E.V.' version as being no better than those failed pservers.
it's not a girlfriend, it's a company that sells items and that has to comply by the law.
