You are NOT going to scare them with cancellation of few Prestige Packs, but some players will.

They spend 2k-4k USD/EUR per month.

You can imagine when they cut out "the income" for NCwest.

Thats the point a number of the prestege ppl that cancelled did spend a lot and aren't going to now, there is literally no point to now, they cannot upgrade.

honestly, thanks NCsoft for keeping me from spending on yet another promo.

NCsoft is looking out for my wallet by out pricing me!

zero interest to purchase any thing from any of these events lately or try enchanting or casino.

That's exactly how I feel about 90% of the events the last 6-8 months tbh. Aside from the fact that I have noticed a steep decline in actual 'good' items being given from events over the past year or so, there are often a ton of odd items in the lists that really just shouldn't be there...where it feels like they're telling you you should feel oh-so-lucky to get this low low chance royal black ticket. You know...that will sell for less than what many people make in 3h of Pantheon/IOS.

NCSoft West is not a Publisher or Distributor like Innova/4Game, it is a subsidury of NCSoft like NCSoft Japan etc(with this being the Only non-Asian languauge subsiduary that  distributes Lineage 2, we have lost any real contact to NCKorea and have lost any real influece)... If/When NCSoft West is no longer proffitable they will dump it, either they will close the servers completely or sell the data to an actual Publisher/Distributor like Amazon or Innova.

You're correct in that a publisher would typically have more say in how the game evolves, where it seems outside of garbage gear that has ruined the game, NC Soft West has no power or even desire to want to change anything. The comment was aimed at them NOT distributing or publishing, or having anything to do with  throne and liberty because of how bad that have screwed up lineage 2 (which NCSoft has apologized for). 

And they won't have anything to do with new NC Soft titles as Amazon is supposed to be distributing Throne and Liberty, not NC Soft West. Their days are numbered, and so is this server.

Last year's event was the last decent shop event NCWest delivered. With reasonable rl money anyone could make progress. It's been all downhill since then.

It's literally the only game I 've ever seen where the publisher actively hates their playerbase. I can see no other explanation for the mess generated by NCWest

they only allow good returns from sales so u can get up to pace with the recent updates in the game. once you get some of the upgrades needed, they return it to the usual :) for how many years u are playing and spending, i have no clue but u should know it by now.

Simple "solution" for player here, stop buying NCOIN and expedite the process 😍

All latest event is designed to milk the most from remaining player base before server dead/new owner take over

A little too late for that as you've gone silent a week and multiple well paying customers had enough and quit. That's money you'll never recover because there is nobody to replace them. Nobody wants to join a game where it costs thousands of dollars for a chance at a top item.... tell your devs and kr mother company to really think of a better approach than bending us over and not getting anything for it

Well at least you have replied.. you could adjust rates back to normal or even increase them more than before to show a goodwill.. but nah.. why bother with us :D

 

"How to aproach future promotions" lower rates even more to get rid of more players :D

Not sure who had the grand idea to reduce the enchant rates then post it as a similar event but it was an epic failure.

This, "We will be evaluating how to approach future promotions with your feedback in mind."  There was no other "promo" in the last four years that has been as good as this one.  People saved up for a whole year (including myself) to utilize this "promo" aka SALE to upgrade gear, fill in wholes of characters weakness and find a way to enjoy the game again.  However, I am pretty certain that NCWest will fail again and I can only speak for myself that I will never "save" money for a promo again.  Much less be around for it.

NCWest has always found a way to milk its customers.  Jewels are a great example, started out small increments of money back in 2016/17 and on an annual bases prices got more expensive in the NCstore over time (this promo caused me to quit for 2 years).  Nightmarket Coins, another example where the player base had to point out  massive disparity in prices before something was done but once again, slowly increase the prices and to milk the player base.  NCWest has once again found a new target of the  Mythical Dragon chest but this time you removed a valuable item (Luna Packs) and adjusted the rates WITHOUT saying anything.

@Wissp& @Hermes, this goes without saying, the player base doesn't trust you (lack of communication) nor do we think you can actual do anything to help us (always an increase of prices and THE PLAYER BASE HAS TO POINT IT OUT).  Your company has started to show a trends over the last six years, so yea, we don't trust you.

Lol at this guy. "How to approach future promotions" meaning they will not gonna do something about the current dragon slayer event" so enchant rate will be the same for 2 more weeks. He even said "Thanks to everyone" sounds like thanks to everyone who cried a lot here in forums ROFL!!.

Well my enquiry to playNc was pointless ,

 

 

 

They told me to contact to NcWest to escalate any issues, which we know lack of communication wont get solved as you can't get any attention even with 300 posts to forum, hopefully the guy who sent enquiry to NCsoft.com get better results

m8, i waited a year for this event to come again purely to upgrade my weapon with dragon claws.  instead of it costing 1-2 grand, you made it cost 9-10 grand this time.  i'm supposed to wait another year in hopes you will rectify the event next time?

 

sorry to break it to you, but i'll end up quitting, not waiting.  good luck i guess.

We don't want to wait, we need solution now... NCwest cannot asked us to trust them again.
Who cares what you will make in the future, we probably won't be here to see it.
Do you have any idea what is happening to your game? Let me help you, it's called "mass quit".
