The game was never meant to be F2P, it has always been a buy to play.

We don't have a lot of info on taming for now, but the only tamable animals for now (horses) indeed have randomized stats.

It actually reads like that (notice the * at the end of current), but I agree that it could be more clear.

We know that the next test will start in Q1 2022.

It could possibly be the beta 1 or the last alpha.

We are currently in alpha test.
That doesn't mean that servers are online 24/7.
On that same page you can read when the servers will be online next.

Welcome!

The governor position is transferable. Not sure if it is right now, but on release it will be possible.

Also, look for the TMDS guild if you want to play on Arboreus. Guild leader Xzait.

Hello and welcome!

@malkavien if you don't want to wait and wanted to play now, you can get a refund.

I'm not referring to the economic scenario, which after your explanation has a basis.

I was referring to this:

All Gamigo and DS need to do with the "PR stunt" as @Logain called it, is time it right (not during or around announced test phase) and make it a time limited offer (which is completely reasonable thing to do), minimum costs and maximum positive effect as every content creator and news site will be blasting variations of "Did Gamigo change into good guys?!" with their current and future playerbase being much more trusting."

This looks like a very optimistic outcome.

Your scenario honestly seems a bit far fetched, and I'm also quite sure that the Gamigo detractors would find a way to give a negative spin to it.

But again, I'm not 100% opposed to the idea. Phoenix Project did something similar with Epic and it did work quite well.

Edit: I would see better a different version of it. Sign up now for a refund, and 6 months from now you can confirm it and receive your money back. In the mean time you maintain access to the game.
This way you get the same result but avoid the knee jerk reactions giving everyone 6 months to test the new state of things.

I understand where you are coming from, but you are being quite careless on 2 points:

1. Both you and cookie have no kind of metric or method to claim those "100-200k". Yours is just a very wild and baseless guess.

2. 200k are not peanuts by any possible definition. They are 4 months of development funds under the current team or 8 months under the old one.
   Are you really saying that 4 months make no difference in the development of a game?

I can confirm that the game is currently unavailable, and that to play you need at the least the second tier package (maybe first tier if the next test is finally a Beta, but we don't know yet).

I can also attest that this isn't the first case in these days of someone misunderstanding the current state of the game, so indeed there should be better indications.

Yeah, LoA really deserved a better team. In the end they lost their vision for the game and everything ended.
I still pay the taxes for my house in Helm...

Welcome/Benvenuto!

I too do dwell in baking, but I'm absolutely terrible at it. I've been trying to remake the Macha Mochi Pie I used to have for breakfast when I worked in Taiwan, or the Trilece that I had in Turkey, but so far I've only met failures...

Technically no, the refund is allowed within 14 days of the purchase.
That doesn't mean that you can't request an exception.

It's what is currently stated in the store page.

Welcome!

The game servers are unfortunately not available until the next test launches in Q1 2022, so for now there isn't much you can see.
