Players are expressing doubts about Throne and Liberty’s F2P system

What do fans currently see critically? Recently, fans vented their anger on Reddit after leaks from a beta claimed that skins in Throne and Liberty would improve you.

Now players are expressing doubts about the F2P release of Throne to Liberty, fearing P2W mechanics. The following statements can be found on Reddit:

  • User Comprehensive_Fee_23: The only concern is that the game will have Pay2Win features that can be a huge problem in a PvP oriented game. So let’s hope they can monetize the game in the West without Pay2Win. I’m actually glad Amazon is the publisher because they understand what the western community tolerates. Pay2Win will destroy the game and I’m pretty sure Amazon will be able to communicate this to NCSoft as well.
  • User Happy_Ad_5195: So based on what little information we have, are we going to see the same mechanics as Lost Ark where we microtransact to buy any species, crystals or whatever so we have a guaranteed good chance of not failing the item upgrade? Because I see the AMAZON name above this game and I immediately think of LOST ARK and what I call the gambling method there.

    • Regardless of P2W fears, fans criticized the fact that players can kill each other at night without any ifs or buts and that the combat system will probably become a stringent tab targeting. There was also criticism of the abilities that prevent you from moving and to make matters worse, there should be autoplay in the Asian version of the game.

    How is the monetization now? NCSoft recently stated that it would use the information from the upcoming beta phases to fine-tune the monetization in addition to the gameplay. We are looking for ways to maximize the global success of Throne of Liberty.

    What do you all mean? Is Free2Play basically the right way, or are options like Buy2Play and subscription models a sensible alternative to in-game shops and the like for you? Tell us in the comments.
