That's an extremely poor way to say it, and couldn't highlight the problem I mentioned any better.Xerah wrote:TLDR, Two sides:
1. People are currently playing for free and don't want to pay money to keep playing.
2. Other people don't mind paying the extra $20 to get updates to make the game run smoother (i.e. all those Nvidia bugs)
Group 1 calls out supporters of group 2 as being paid off or "shilling".
There has been a lack of actual "new" content seen thus far, so there is something of a point with group 1, but running a smooth game far outweighs any additional content for most people.
I'd consider myself part of "group 1", who isn't play for free (I bought every copy of the game), and would prefer if current users didn't have to buy a second. Yet I'm not saying anyone who is hyped for the game to be a shill, and I know others who share this sentiment and way of thought.
It isn't fine for people in "group 1" to call "group 2" shills, but what you're saying is downright insulting and factually wrong. A more correct way to define each group would be along the lines of:
1) People who have skepticism of EE and it's merits, promises, and cost, as well as it's potential effect on Arelith.
2) People who are hype for EE, and see no/few issues with EE.
