@Wissp @Hermes @Hime

 Maybe Atleast learn from you'r last year misstake,  Where all items price had to be reworked because  Literally everything was Too expensive compared to actual price ingame of items????

This year its even worse,   Every item, is  Double the price from the ingame price already, 

ITs totally awful to give us an event like that on a update day.   Shame on all our Gm's for this. 

This post has 7 Freaking pages of answer and 10k views, but yet u guys didnt learn the lessons:

i realize yall got thrown into the lions den with t bones tied around your necks. BUT, yall been here long enough to know what the community has been begging for. ive yet to see anything impressive from you guys besides the sayha/shillen event. ive spent 20$ on this game in the last 3 months because the "store events" have had NOTHING in it for the majority of the server. why arent level 5 gems in every store promo? i can ask a million more question BUT why is this night market event even 5x worse then the last one? are you guys not allowed to tell us whats going on?

Bro i clearly want an answer on this post.   Tell us who's the one who make the price, because he must be really drunk,   Disconnected from Reality,  you guys won't make any money with these horrible price. 

Don't dare to ignore us like all the rest of GM's ,   just like @Hermes  who's not posting anything on forum since a while and same for @Hime   they give 0 Answers to the community,  and you want us to spend money on your game?

Hime left us a long time ago, and his last words of wisdom was beware of scams. 🙃

Please do something about the marketing of prices. Events get being more and more and more expensive and we get less and less items from the events.

I understand that the company needs to feed its co-workers, but we are not idiots who only get milked for crappy rewards on the events.

Try and speak with the right people making decisions, because the situation keep getting worse for now 4 years.

Login into Naia, the server is empty almost due to the marketing decisions.

Thanks for the feedback, everyone. I will make sure your concerns regarding the pricing in the Night Market promotion are passed along to the appropriate individuals. 

 

Also why are there Shining Sayha Energy and Shining Gem Stone but the Energy of Protection Enchant for Advanced Talisman of Protection is NEVER an option

This might market coin is a joke. Another instance of Ncsoft being completely disconnected from our region/market/playerbase/wants/needs/desires/state of game. 

 

Sigh...

 

It's like you guys enjoy shitting in our cheerios or something, I just don't get it. You are in the business of making money on events, right?

If you guys wants to milk more money from the players, put the paywall more ahead, let them start to enjoy the game and have the feeling to apend, the paywall affect the lowbies right in the first days.

Lowbies can do nothing with the free stuffs and even with the blessed exalted (wich is paid and shouldn't), they can't do much. Lower the price of enchant exalted stuffs scroll, we need more player base but you are lowering it every new promo.

While I appreciate that the team is taking the time to communicate with the player base, and that attempts are being made to adjust some prices in the Night Market Coin event, I can't help but wonder what metrics you are using to determine pricing in the game.  Let's do a little math and make some real world comparisons based on what we find out.

At current pricing, Ncoin costs $100US for 8,000.  That means 200 night coins cost $9US.  If you apply that to a Shining Gran Kain Weapon Enchant Scroll, that translates to $31.50US for each scroll.  Let's apply that to a reasonable scenario.  There are an abundance of +20 R110 Limited weapons on the server due to the +20 limit on the normal Gran Kain scrolls.  So if I want to go above +20, I get to pay $31.50US for "a chance" to increase the level of the weapon by +1.  With the current enchant system, that means that realistically it takes 10 attempts for each +1, or $315US.  And if my goal is a +30 weapon, I will have to spend $3,150US for a reasonable chance to achieve that.

For conversation purposes, I can imagine that there isn't one employee on your team that would pay $3,150US for an opportunity to get a +30 weapon in a game like Lineage 2.  You'd have better odds in Vegas.  Which is my point to pass along to you and your teammates.  The L2 Community is complaining because the pricing is insane.  It is clearly not affordable for the vast majority of the community.  And given the continuing evolution of the game, i.e., better AI and increased elements on mobs, etc., having a +30 weapon is only one small piece of what's required for a player to enjoy the game over level 110.  I wrote about that in my open letter last week.

I cannot speak for everyone in the game.  However, I consider myself to be a thoughtful and reasonable person.  What the L2 Community is asking of you is to also be that same person.  I gave you one example.  Times that by every item and skill in the game.  The aggregate cost to play is currently off the charts.  Which is why the community is so unhappy.  I'd like for you to communicate how you are making needed changes a reality for us. 

On a final note ... we ARE in a recession which will drive more frustration.  Thank you.

Event chest that will cost 2b+ ingame to get a bunch of crap items.

Night market trade items...all overpriced comparing with ingame items price.

40 night market coins for 1 gem energy is 2.5b+ for one single gem energy, that is already overpriced ingame, this item must cost max 200m. Just more one event without items we need like Authority Ornament and basic items like brilliant rose, deton, valiant at a good price.

Congratulations for another event that just few crazy ppl will buy something.

Suggestion: please, hire that "GM DIL" from EU/Innova server.
