People Keep Waiting for Transmog Like It Will Be Free...
AGS will probably add a new cash-only item or resource that will allow you use in one single item to turn that item into a skin, or something like that. When this feature release, of course, people will be mad because AGS are using the term "transmog" that came from WoW, which is a free feature, but AGS won't do it for free...

People is expecting some kind of system that will allow them to turn their items into skin without payment because WoW does without payment, and this system, of course, will turn out to be the same pretty expensive as the skins that you already have.

Maybe the only good thing about this is being able to dye our transmogs? It's so stupid paying 75k, 95k, for a bundle of skins that you can't even dye to the color you want, forcing you wear that thing that everybody is wearing feeling you pay for something to be different, but you are actually the same as the other.

My expectation for transmog is waaaay low, I don't know, I don't expect to be a great system as the majority of people is expecting, people will get mad, people will say things, AGS will care less about it, and nothing will change, people will keep playing as they are playing, the feature will be there, and that's it.

What are you expecting from this transmog system?

I think you're making alot of assumptions just to rant about something we don't know any details about.

Pretty standard for a troll.

We know transmog are coming because AGS already told it. We know we won't be free because there's no purpose in selling skins if we can have it for free, this would disrupt the incoming, I'm just doing the math.

Just like they did with P2W and expected it to happen and dominate the game by Q1 of 2022.

You're not understanding. Why invest in paranoia when it doesn't do anything but make you look like ...

Just like the P2W conspirators.

What I don't understand is why to interact with a thread that you have no interest in. I opened a thread, whoever wants to participate simply participate, why to tell me to shut up or say nothing? If the thread bothers you, why don't you simply unsubscribe and ignore it?

Transmogs do not bother me. I have some goggles, masks, and various items waiting for transmog since launch.

Creating assumptions based on thin air does nothing but create chaos. It is similar to claiming that a game is P2W due to suggestions of certain things in an Alpha test.

You assume it is an attack on you. I was generalizing. YOU volunteered your own finger to point at yourself. I did no such thing. YOU are creating an argument where there was none.

DO not make this discussion an excuse for you to troll on others. I will not work well.

2+2 =/= 5


You are again assuming that paid skins and transmog are competing systems.


Now, if I were to make a prediction I'd assume transmog is going to require a resource of some sort, and that said resource is likely to have multiple methods to get, probably the faction shops being one of them.

I am hoping for a new Vendor. Maybe an NPC that links to Zone standings in each settlement?

More sinks would be nice.

Again... Calling troll and dictating rules about things without purpose.
You failed to answer my question, why?

Because any one been here for more then a month seen your posts, and knows you are a troll lol. You kind self incriminating I mean this is classic flame bait troll technique to go "well say why?" You say like 10 times trying to piss them off probally like a classic troll sigh...

Now, if I were to make a prediction I'd assume transmog is going to require a resource of some sort, and that said resource is likely to have multiple methods to get, probably the faction shops being one of them.

First point, yes, they are competing systems. The sole purpose of cosmetics in games are to gather money, the company can, sometimes, give you some skins to lure you about seeing yourself different, gain your curiosity to check the store, and induce you to purchase more skins, this is something pretty clear and common.

If you implement methods that give ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ to players, players will feel less and less the need to purchase skins, thus killing the only method that you have to get incoming... So, yes, both are competing, allowing us to freely transmog items into skins will kill the game because, (be honest) skins in New World suck, they are horrible, and no one would purchase if we didn't have other option... Well, transmog is the other option.

Second point, I do agree with you that it could come in multiple ways to get the resource, or item, and they could be free, but it would be a huge load of grind to get it, enough to make you think "should I grind this much, or should I simply purchase from the store?", because that's the whole point, give them the taste of the good ♥♥♥♥ and make them pay for it.

I didn't get it, a vendor to link the zone standings?

Ok, if you truly think I'm a troll, and the sole purpose of this thread is to make a flame war, why are you here? This is the question I made him prior... Why do you keep incentive talk with a troll? Why do you keep interacting with a troll thread? Or do you think isn't smart simply unsubscribe to the thread and let the troll die alone? Did you ever thought about that?
