I think this is a pretty big topic if you ask the Graal Community. This topic really sparked today when the snowball soccer ball was released in Onnet Town. For something like 5.2k you can buy a simple snowball to kick around your guildhouse for 20mins then get bored. I think this is stupid and something like that should be priced at the most 1500gralats.

If people have a problem with it I doubt they'll buy it.And like others said it's probably because of the holidays.

Plus it's just a snowball you play soccer with maybe they should have made it so you can have snowball fights with other people?I don't know just an idea,Then people might have looked at it differently.

And its a holiday exclusive item! Of course it needs to have some value!
And really? are we really going back with the whole mask thing? its your fault you paid 20K for the mask when it first came out

well of course its my fault for buying the mask for 20k....what i dont understand is how you can mark down the price from 20k to 1k...it doesnt even make sense...max is should be marked down is half

The money from iTunes Cards goes to Apple>EUROCENTRE>Stefan.

He doesn't make as much from this as you would think that he does, so don't pull the "He is greedy and wants us to pay for his house" Card.

unixmad handles most the financial stuff and is the one responsible for most these things, but its stefans fault too, he seems to just be Unixmads puppy dog.

Don't know why you seem to hate so much about the administration of graal. Sure they're lazy asses, but they are video game makers that do it as a career. They have to make money, whatever means possible. When they're game isn't a big hit, and they have a loyal community, they must exploit them... pretty much.

Higbey 12-14-2011 12:24 AM

they dont need to, you think games like angry birds would have gotten this popular if they had acted like Unixmad and Stefan? notice minecraft is only for a one time fee to buy it, and you get all this great stuff.... thats how you get people. creative games, treating the community right, good features...

look at Zenonia, imagine how much money they would make if they made that multiplayer. its alot like graal, a ltp based rpg in a medeval fantasy setting with play customation and such, look at how cheap zenonia is, imagine how much graal could make if it was like a online version of that. more content.

maybe we would get more scripters if Stefan and Unixmad would make the right choices and this game would have a future, paying some scripters instead of relying on volunteer work might help too.

as for the not making enough, and the server costing more, total bull****, there are games with much better graphics and more players AND PAID DEVS that dont cost this much to run.
if Stefan wasnt so scared of advertisements we might be better off.

apparently his own staff showing distrust in him and Unixmad still wasnt enough to get him to change.

Honestly, paid Dev staff is the only way Graal is going to see some serious and awesome improvement and motion. Volunteer work only goes so far, and I will not lose sleep over Graal if I don't "make a deadline". I'm not getting paid, so why am I caring/worrying?

Oh. I'm not.

Anyway your right, Twinny has to pay the bills some how, same with you, same with FP4, same with Rufus,

Heck, if Stefan and Unixmad paid Tig and he managed to get old west and ikingdoms going they would profit off it and it would pay off all of Tigs pay within a around month and a half (loosely, too many variables to predict, most likely depending on how much Tig got paid how iPhone players reacted to it, wether it was going to be another one of those join for a week, quit, go back to classic things like what happened to iera with some players)

If you find it expensive, don't buy it.
Problem solved.

glitcher 12-14-2011 06:01 AM

Buying items is good for you. Obviously since we are approaching christmas time we will be receiving iTunes gift cards and what better thing to spend them on other than snowflake soccer balls. Graal is a trainer for real life consumerism where you don't have the money for everything and you must make choices on what you really NEED and what you can hold off on.

And no I'm NOT trolling I'm serious.

I guess the administration believes that the steady minimal money they're receiving is the most they're going to get, which is wrong. If they step it up, reach out to broader audience, maybe ADVERTISE once in a while, we could see our servers reach at least 10k players.
