In videogames with game currencies to play with, they call it an RPG or RPG elements. In most of theses types of games, you start out poor, but then the game allows you to gain these in-game currencies in a generous way just by playing because the design is to ultimately give you that rewarding feeling that you've earned everything via playing the game. That work/reward ratio is what makes these games flourish because the design is in favor of the player as you play. Bright Dust on the other hand is connected to real world money. It's an in-game currency that is utilized for items that can be bought with real money. In summary, it is an in-game currency earned via gameplay that is in direct competition with real money. If you're smart enough, which one do you think matters? In-game currency or real money? That's where greed comes in. This is about greed, not player reward. When it comes to real world money, the temptation to weigh in the favor of greed will win. That's why they manipulate your in-game reward system to be stingy. Not because they want you to grind. There is nothing to grind if there is a limit to it and the only next solution is use real money. It's greed. Open your mind. It's greed!

The technology is already in the game for a couple years now. We are using it now for FREE as long as you acquired said ornaments. If it's already in the game and we are now using it for free, then you monetize it. That's greed.

I dont know what you mean bu it being in the game for years now. If your talking about ornaments thats a bit different then creating a way to make your own from other sources.

Everything in the game is made by them and is already in the game. Before armor ornaments showed up, they were actual armor in D2 year 1. They were just made ornaments later on. All of them are already in the game. For free and already paid for. Iron Banner armor in Year 1 were armor. After year 1, some where turned into ornaments. Nothing was made, they are already in the game. They were turned into ornaments and can be transmog via ornaments for FREE. Nothing is made because they are already in the game. Transmog Technology is already in the game now, for FREE if you already unlocked ornaments. Ornaments that used to be armor in the game. We are not making Transmog armor because the Transmog Technology is already in the game for several years and utilized for FREE.

You pay for the goods and services you get.
