Ragnarok Online 3’s cash shop could become one of the most controversial parts of the game.
In this video, I showcase the premium Crystal Shop from the recent private test and explain what players could buy, including pet eggs, Zeny, Vitality, Elunium, Oridecon, refining materials, and other progression items.
So, is RO3 pay-to-win?
Based on the private test, players could clearly use premium currency to speed up progression and increase character power. But for me, the bigger question is how much one player will be allowed to spend.
JoyMaker previously used a monthly spending limit in Ragnarok Origin Classic, so I discuss whether a similar system could make RO3’s monetization more manageable for free-to-play players and average spenders.
What do you think? Would you accept progression items in the cash shop if there was a strict monthly spending limit, or is selling character power already too much?
