According to Jeffrey Steefel, executive producer at Turbine, developer of Lord of the Rings Online, paying real money for in-game items is the wave of the future. http://www.games.net/blog/25993/mo-money-fo-mmo-money/ I don't see the point in purchasing virtual items. It's the lamest scam ever. If it's not bad enough we have to pay for online, now we have to pay more for items now. I still can't believe there's gold farming on WoW and players actually paying for it. How can people become nearly obsessed to a point where you actually start paying for items? Plus with SecondLife and all the other virtual reality games, it's only going to get worse. http://www.games.net/blog/25993/mo-money-fo-mmo-money/#comment_610250 http://www.games.net/blog/25993/mo-money-fo-mmo-money/ Mon, 04 Jun 2007 19:01:51 GMT
