I'm buying the adventurers pack and that's it. Only buying guaranteed pulls and even then I'll decide if it's worth it. I really wish they had made it one time payment of 60 bucks. Still gonna try it out

If it was a one time purchase then the game wouldn't get any meaningful or rapid updates.

This shouldve just been a $60 game without the MTs. But its mihoyo and theyre also doing a mobile release so it was pretty much impossible. I hope the storys actually progressable without MTs unlike their other games that make it impossible after 3 or so chapters. Their games are very pay2win. If its like this, I will indeed drop it quick lol.

[phoenixwing]

Yeah if it's just a pay to win I'm not paying. I'll waste my money on ff14 if that's the case.

[Almightsponge]

Its a single player/coop game. Im about 12 hours in and am amazed with the game. Haven't spent a cent

God I hate that this awful model got as prevalent as it is today. It utterly ruins what would otherwise be a pretty decent game.
