The Purveyor update introduced some microtransactions that aren't like most in Guild Wars, so I wanted to voice my opinion on them.

00:00 - Intro
00:35 - What is The Purveyor?
01:26 - Reforged Coin
03:51 - Consumables and their effects
06:21 - P2W has different meaning for everyone
07:23 - Who am I winning against in a single-player PvE game?
07:53 - If you don't like it, don't buy it
08:26 - It's not that expensive
08:33 - It's not that big of a deal, they aren't that powerful
09:05 - It damages the RWT market and botting
09:53 - This makes consumables available year-round
10:19 - It levels the playing field for new players who don't have stacks of stuff
10:57 - You need tons of cons to run dungeons
11:38 - You're just mad because you botted and can't sell stuff any more
12:25 - Consets are way too expensive
13:28 - So it's not actually P2W then because you can get them for free by just playing
13:59 - I don't have time to farm stuff and just want to play the game
14:40 - What about mercenaries, bonus weapons and the imp summoning stone?
15:33 - Just play Melandru mode if you don't want to use them
16:02 - The game's just old, get over it
16:33 - They need to monetize the game somehow
17:07 - I want ways to support the devs
17:34 - Does it impact your experience of the game if someone else buys them?
18:52 - Outro

![[GW2] Ascension, Actually... An Over-Analysis](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/H_qUbLKCjgM/mqdefault.jpg "[GW2] Ascension, Actually... An Over-Analysis
A video in which I take a game played by two kids, Anaya and Binyam in the Elon Riverlands in Guild Wars 2 and needlessly over-analyse it. Nitpicking this was fun, nostalgic and I learned a few things about Guild Wars 1 too.

Death has gone missing and a hero is needed to bring him back.
Its time to break the 4th wall and apply some moon logic as we once again visit Ankh-Morpork, Unseen University and see if the Shades is still an area where curiosity not only kills the cat, but ties lead weights to its feet and throws it in the river.
Rincewind the wizzard returns, as does Eric Idle of Monty Python to voice him, as he travels around the Discworld in search of strange items and characters to solve lateral thinking exercises.
This is Act 4 and the Epilogue of a full playthrough / walkthrough of the 1996 Discworld 2 adventure game for PC and Playstation 1.

In this part, we finish off Crash 3 in style by blasting through the final warp rooms, grabbing a few missing gems and slicing through the time trials in double time. Rings of Power proves a challenge and we finish up by tackling Future Tense.
