Something that I never liked with CoH was that you had to pay for 3 months just to get the trenchcoat, and 15 months of paid subs to get wings! And the greatest problem with CoH for me was that I could play for like a month and then get bored of the monotonous quests, just to be back 2 months later and play a month more. But you actually had to pay 15 x sub to earn the wings.
I want to be able to play for one month without greater restrictions, and if I feel that I want that extra costume part now I kind of like the idea of paying a small fee to get it right away.
I really think the argument is far too convoluted for its own good.
If you go to said restaurant and order said food and it comes with no plate and no silverware..that's how I view it. They are taking things that are expected to be part of the purchase and removing them and charging extra to get them.
Or you can go to that restaurant, and order a burger and fries. Now standard burger is good, cheese, ketchup, lettuce, onion, but you want bacon because to you that makes it better. Maybe to me it doesn t and wont change the overall burger to me. Well you fork over more money for that. See what I m saying. The MT thing as I ve said a million times is a non issue, but people like the drama it seems.
Regular sub AND an item mall? Really? Damn, another game I won't play then ...

That is an awesome analogy!!!
Here is how it goes;
Dude #1: "I won't play this game because it has an item mall and a subscription of 15 bucks"
Dude #2: "So would you rather pay 20 bucks a month and have all items in the item mall unlocked?"
Just like going to a restaurant, if you don't want bacon on your burger, you'd rather they charge you 5 bucks for it, rather than charging you 4 bucks and an extra 50 cents if you wanted cheese or 50 cents if you wanted bacon? Just on principle.
"I DEMAND to PAY AS MUCH FOR THE BACON AND CHEESE, THAT I WOULD NOT EVEN HAVE CHOSEN HAD IT BEEN INCLUDED IN THE BASE PRICE OF THE BURGER! ON PRINCIPLE"
Awesome, and while people that are dumb enough to pay 5 bucks for a 4 dollar burger drop out of this game, it increases the chance I'll end up joining groups with more common sense.
