Virtual currency

[sacred pasture]

Lots of clients are adapting to this way of buying cosmetics

[lyric chasm]

use?

and people know dollar more than they know a virtual currency

[sacred pasture]

You literally get a better deal you effectively get another cape for the same price

[sacred pasture]

If you prefer dollars then keep dollars as well but you are pretty much getting scammed out of an extra cape this promotes the people spending more to get more cosmetics

It’s a win win situation players will get more for there money and lunar would make more money because of people buying 1 singular cosmetic would be more inclined to buy the virtual currency because you get more for your money

[brittle lance]

why would the currency be cheaper than the cosmetic if the currency is more multi-facteted than one cosmetic

since the currency can be used to by any cosmetic of that price

ts writing a whole paragraph damn

honestly, i don't agree that jumping on the bandwagon of virtual currency is a good idea. yes, lots of clients offer this (alongside large servers) but personally i've never been a fan of the system. you buy "currency" instead of the cosmetic that you want, which is an extra step for no apparent reason. you also tend to have leftover currency or need two different purchases to have enough "currency" to purchase a cosmetic. it's inconvient to say the least

if you're factoring in cheaper cosmetics with this newfound system, lunar client offers sales for other users - theres no need for another currency to "make things cheaper"

lastly, it will most likely require a whole different system for keeping track of currency - as users could abuse this currency (as previously done with other servers & clients). undesirable hassle

when has lunar cared about saving people money? its better to make them waste their money on buying extra currency...

[blissful pulsar]

so you'd prefer to encourage a more "cash grab" system? for no actual user benefits, only benefits towards the actual client economy

[brittle lance]

i woiuldnt encourage it, but you should

[blissful pulsar]

i'm human, just like the rest of you. being a chatmod doesn't mean i should encourage something that i have a strong distaste for

[brittle lance]

so are there aspects of the client you publicly dont support?

[bitter pecan]

there are many reasons why a virtual currency is bad
