👎 Cons:

I am a die-hard MMORPG fan. In today I stepped into the world of Tarisland's closed beta full of optimism, lured by its pledge to shun the Pay-to-Win model. Here's a walk through my journey, now sprinkled with a dash of emojis to capture the highs and lows:

- **Promises vs. Reality**: 🏰 The "No P2W" banner raised my hopes, but the real-money transactions I stumbled upon cast a shadow of doubt, making me question the game's integrity.

- **Community's Voice**: 📢 When Tencent subtly scrubbed off the "No P2W" mark from their social media, it wasn't just me; the entire gaming community felt a wave of distrust and we weren't shy to express it online.

- **The Monetization Maze**: 💸 The Closed Beta Benefits Card and Elf Messenger Bag seemed to pave a golden path for those willing to pay, hinting at a P2W creep.

- **Gameplay Mechanics on the Scale**: ⚖️ No direct stat boosts for sale, sure, but the ability to buy gold and splurge it in the Auction House felt like a sneaky sidestep into P2W territory.

- **Economic Ripples**: 💰 The thought of real-money transactions tipping the in-game economy's balance, and possibly ushering in gold sellers, definitely raised my eyebrows.

- **Developers at the Crossroads**: 🚦 The devs stepped up to acknowledge the feedback with an apology, but the absence of a solid commitment to change left many of us hanging in suspense.

- **Forward March**: 🚶 As the official launch looms, it's the developers' next moves that will either paint a rainbow or storm clouds over Tarisland's future in the MMORPG realm.

As the gates to Tarisland's grand opening draw near, my eyes are peeled for a clear and vibrant response from the creators that aligns with the non-P2W utopia they initially painted. Their approach to these pressing issues will color my final verdict on the game's place in our hearts and the competitive MMORPG landscape.

i dont mind them making money by selling some outfits(which are also craftable and tradable with players), but selling gold that could be used to buy stats and stuff and that shameless way of scrapping off non-p2w from their social handles, that pisses me off

mobile games will always be p2w because companies are making good passive income with it (more then pc community) because not everyone has a good pc but most of do have a powerful phone, basically mobile community is a big playing field soo big that even if most of us leave the game there will be enough whales to keep the game running (see albion online)
