@Raelyn: i do agree with you somewhat but you have to understand that if they wanted to rake in the cash they could go for a montly renewal and they chose not too so thats telling me already that they have other jobs and are still doing this. To be honest, as must as i like this game its $50 for me for a year. I just don't have that much to spare.

@xnervNATx: Trial is supposed to tantalize you to upgrade. If they gave trials more freedom then it would turn into zone where people don't upgrade. When I first started out it was on trial island and I played through it as a trial and by the time I was done I was so thirsty to see the rest of the game that I payed for a gold membership.

It does have its perks and you have to be willing to pay that extra to find them out. Otherwise you will never get the full enjoyment out of the server that you want.

i understand that but let take an exemple, some player enter gk as a trial then he enjoy it so much he want to upgrade , but since his/her parents do not want to pay how is he going to enjoy it , see it that way.

@tig ill be looking for more update on that

granted but that doesn't mean that the gold server make the trial accounts so appealing that the people don't want to upgrade to gold.

blocking trial from kingdoms islands was ok , but if ur going to delete all goods for trial , you might as well put a message saying "you have nothing on here, pay or leave"

They either 1) get a job and pay for it themselves or 2) find a new hobby, because gaming isn't a good hobby for 12 year olds with cheap parents.

1) i'm not old enough to legally get a job.
2) i'm not going to find another hobby because i can't pay to upgrade my account on graal, because i'm 14 and a year away from legally being able to get a job.

This isn't the place, and I'm sorry I let the topic shift.

Unless you live in china and sew sneakers in a sweatshop, I am pretty sure you can swing $50 a year. No matter who you are. It costs more than that to fill up the 20 gallon tank on my pickup back home.. weekly..

Consider the many Graal players who are too young to work, who only get pocket money and have to think wisely about what to buy - They will find it very hard to fork over $50 to pay for a server that's got a playercount of a classroom...
I'm not even in that situation, i'm 17, studying, getting government income and have a job buying+selling natural and chemical products (), but i still don't see the point in paying $50 for a game i get less fun in than me walking 100 yards to shoot hoops - And that's alone.

My point is, it's not that it's too much money period, it's that for what you're getting, it's not worth it. If Graal Kingdoms was in an sunday market Stefan and Unixmad would be voicing their product all day and get one sale at most.
