half-jokes aside, i remember that, too. the days when AT MOST, all you worried about was making sure you had 5-9$ in your account so you could go to the store and buy a subscription card to play another month. i get that games get more expensive as more people play, but we lost something important the day it became normal for devs to release more premium shop updates than content updates.
i watch josh strife hayes and his "worst mmo ever" series, and it gets a sad little laugh out of me when he finds an abandoned MMO with a cash shop that isn't working, because he always points out that it's the true sign an MMO is dead: the cash shop isn't working, and hasn't worked for a while.
