Game direction and objectives for Regnum Online (2008 version)

[traverse]

Dear NGD,

I have been happy to "vote with my money" and purchased premium content based on the fun of Regnum online. But it seems like some of your changes are more or less designed to force people into buying premium content.

Making leveling easier (or offering an alternative to mindless grinding...?) and keeping reset_powers fully functional would probably keep people like me buying more premium content. If you move the goal posts to mean more mindless grinding to level or to afford reset_powers, I'd probably be less inclined to buy premium.

I'm quite happy with the reset_powers system, especially for new people who have no idea which spells or any good (or work). I would have to see that feature go away or become costly. (Arrows and repairs already cost too much!)

Thank you for a very fun game!

But that shouldn't stop us posting about possible problems that we forsee might happen.

With this kind of input, hopefully the change won't be so bad.

Yeah, but people are being hostile to NGD about it.

It's really quite simple isn't it? It's all about the money.

if you're good at something never do it for free...

BUT they did put this game on a f2p platform and now it looks like it will shift into a p2p or pay to play


i started playing this game because it was free honestly, it was between this and wow and figuring blizzard already had enough of my money i decided on regnum

even though its free i have bought ximerin but only because it was a free game in the first place had it not been free i would have never played it and been here to buy anything

if you continue implementing changes like this you will most likely shift completely into a pay to play game and you should balance the spells and such better before doing so, if/when you change the game over you will have to compete with games such as wow or runescape whether you like it or not no matter how different your game is or anything like that and quite frankly i dont think your game could hold up against them at that point

I for one would like to see this added, this is the only mmo that i know that you can change freely, would make it of a change to pick the right skills first.

i hope the reset never gets limited, why the hell r u comparing to other rpgs?
regnum is regnum, this isnt warcraft where u lvl up hard, and one day realize your char is total crap.

here we can change it to adapt for the quests or war or whatever

actually even WoW has a reset_powers type feature but it costs gold
