The current business model is one of the big things severely holding this game back, DDO will never be good with this shit 2006 freemium strategy. Pro-paladin-move: Make a shit-ton of free accounts, get coupon on them before Aug 31st, distribute on reddit.com/r/ddo to new players or people wanting to join the game but missed out on the coupon. Maybe, I dunno, restart Citadel as your personal army or something.

	Having bought MOTU, SC (Collectors) and most map packs I guess my account is now worth 99 points plus a coupon. Technomage was spot on with the $1 valuation!

But when you include all the inherent benefits from reincarnation, the thing is above the roof. The benefit from TR was supposed to be minimal, but now it is game breaking. start a new character and you will feel, you will get raped in heroics. Personally I think lower heroics on new characters are harder than Legendary Elite content on a character with good gear and has all destinies farmed.

Hey, cheer up dude...or shemale. I am pretty sure ssg will drive up the prices of races, classes and iconics in the future. So those will be worth more for you.

	m4lacka wrote on May 29^th, 2020 at 2:14am: So, uh, basically all content will be purchasable by a single coupon? What does all this wierd SSG monologue mean? Probably they want to make this a cupon to let you pucharse all the content for a discount, to force new players to do it when the free content finishes, because if they did nothing they wouldn't buy anything. It seems the announcement as free questing cupon is misleading, in the sense people are thinking they'll get the stuff for free. But it's the cupon to get the stuff that seems to be free.

	BTW if this is not permanent, I see an oppotunity to make a lot of accounts to get the ticket and sell them later. And if it is permanent, than the cupon makes no sense, they should simply make the content free (or permanentely sell the full non-expansion content all togheter in a package for the price of what would be with the cupon if the idea was a discount instead of jsut making all free).

	Do not try the patience of wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger. We are dreamers, shapers, singers, and makers. We study the mysteries of laser and circuit, crystal and scanner, holographic demons and invocation of equations. These are the tools we employ, and we know many things. The absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.
