Inertia dude I undersatnd, you don’t want there to be some underlying focus on paying to play. However, you gotta be asking yourself this question..

Is it fair to make all these shops and items available to people who haven’t paid for the game? I mean, then whats the point of paying 10 bucks to support crotch zombie? I’m sorry but as much as I love storylines and whatnot, story is NEVER a justification for paying money. You go for other elements.

SO you argue its unfair for people to have to pay to get the good stuff, I say its unfair to have people pay merely to be able to watch a few fmvs and stalk convos.
