I remember a friend buying 1000 gold coins on WoW for €20 back in the day. That was the price of 10 coffees at the time. He "spared" me 100 gold coins (I had only 1 at the time) and it made the WoW experience completely different.

- Lacerda69 3y agoprobably ruined their own experience as well. wheb I use cheatcodes it usually ruins the game for me (what is the point playing now that i can have everything)
- usrusr 3y agoI guess it's safe to assume that $20 in pay to win would be pretty far from having everything. But I share the sentiment, its a huge hit to the suspension of disbelief regarding in-game achievement.
- Foobar8568 3y agoIn the heyday of EverQuest, UO or other mud, things were selling for much more than a mere $20 for 1000gp ( I used to play wow and was among the first to hit 60 on my server, and most likely I had some server first, so I do know what represented at that time 1000gp), items could be worth a few hundred, if not thousands. Hell I believe it's still the case on some emulator servers (P99 for EQ)
