Truth.5279 Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 OK, first - best MMO ever, possibly best PC game ever. Now to business. I know ArenaNet has been stuck trying to go uphill in a muddy rainstorm for a while now, but come on... chairs? maybe if they were pve loot but not gem store fodder, and the same thing with the outrageously expensive procession of mount skins. Please you can do better. You've done it before. Maybe take a short-term hit to shift the revenue meta or something IDK. I'll still play but I want a little excitement.

Randulf.7614 Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 Chairs are about the most fitting gem store item there is though. I’m not sure I understand the issue.I’d agree with you on mounts, however it seems they sell extremely well, so there is little reason to change tack here.

They have shareholders to answer to whom, I would think, would not enjoy this idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just a flesh wound.3589 Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 Please you can do better.Here ya go. Gemstore requests. Put your suggestions for exciting items for ANet to sell here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blanche Neige.7241 Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 So far, the only thing they sold in the Gemstore are fashion or quality of life items. Noting is mandatory.I don't care what they sell in there as long as this philosophy don't change. They can sell as many style of chairs or mount skins as they want, at whatever price they want. If I see something I like and I find the price ok, I buy it. Otherwise, I don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danikat.8537 Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 I'm indifferent to the gem store chairs. I'm not going to buy any because I rarely use the novelties I have, especially the chair, so it doesn't seem worth paying for more. I don't really see the appeal for other people either but if they like them and are willing to pay for them that's their choice. The nice thing is that I can be indifferent - there is absolutely no benefit to having a gem store chair, so if Anet can make money from a harmless cosmetic option I'm happy to let them - the alternative is trying to find things we all feel we need to buy...and I don't want to be in the position of feeling like I have to spend more to enjoy a game I've already bought.

Turkeyspit.3965 Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 Chairs seem odd to me too. I'd much rather new tonics or other novelties like the Bobblehead / Aviator station. But as Danikat said above, if this is a way to generate revenue from people who want these things, nobody should be standing in the way. Just because they hold no interest for me doesn't make them bad, so long as they are interesting to someone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyndercat.7615 Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 I mean, there are literally 2 chairs you can earn in game already. Granted both are rewards for the hardest raid bosses and it would be nice to see chairs earned in content thats accessible to more people. Doesnt mean you cant earn chairs in game, and 1 can even be bought on the trading post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was bugged when I first started it , and I forgot to finish so never earned it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naxos.2503 Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 I'm fine with chairs, but I'd like them to expand on the pet whistle. It carries a lot more possibilities than I first thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
