See the title

If people are still regularly buying them Anet wont drop the price.
If sales drop continually then they'll drop the price.

Also, I think this might be in the wrong Board... or the wrong forum altogether... but im not sure >.>
Well I saw almost the same thread 3 months ago in here, and figured it was time for a refresh

I'd think with the growing interest in GW2, sales for GW1 might start dipping by now! GW2 Public gameplay demo is in 3 weeks I think? woot (edit: err let me qualify that by saying 'displayed to the public'. Not publicly playable, heh)

I doubt you will see any drop in prices for store items. This is ArenaNets income resource while they work on GW2 after all.

Would be quite impossible for Anet to have been developing a game for 4 years now only to be funded by the odd campaign or Costume that's been sold for GW1...

NCSoft may foot the largest part of the bill, but if there is no income at all they might start questioning the whole F2P format.

This is correct and NCSoft doesn't do "Micro" payments, they do payments that are anything but micro. Other games 2-5 bucks for stuff related to their games, ncsoft? 10 bucks minimum. Screw ncsoft's "Micro" payments.

You're better off buying a second game from somewhere cheap and using the 4 character slots for storage mules

If they decide to sell them all 4 for 10$ they will get my money! Otherwise lol, the current price (40$+some tax that wasn't there before) is so absurd it's beyond my words.

They alrady stated it will be F2P. So they can question it all they want.

Storage panes are a waste of cash anyway so who cares.

What it's time for is a half-price deal on the campaigns. I might upgrade my mule account if the online store prices weren't so preposterous.

I think most people realize that buying new char slots is a better deal

I would not consider storage panes a waste of money if it was either cheaper for each pane or if you were to get two for the same price. Right now the better investment storage wise by a mile would be getting an extra character slot.

Speaking for myself but I'm sure others, I have a job, a very good technical job resulting from my degree at a very respected Californian university. I don't throw good money at bad deals, whether that's Napa Valley wine, supermarket food, or comp games / micro transactions.

When I can get a trilogy for $20 with 8 chars full of storage (and gameplay), it's silly to pay $10 for a few panes.

I have 3 comps at home so it's no issue muling across accts.

I have to agree. But how much more silly is paying $40 for those pitiful few panes?

too bad u can't buy all these extras in a real store (not everyone can buy their things online)
