It was more open world PVP I was thinking, or even at a clan vrs clan level, if cash-shoppers have an advantage with over powered items, it would be seen as unfair. I find it similar to lottery winners... People send begging letters to the winners of the lottery because it's seems that as they didn't work for all that money, they may give some away. The "Time=Money" needs to be adhered to. I don't know the exact formula, just saying it's going to be a tough one for them to balance. Especially as the game lends itself to people playing with different styles aswell. Some people will want to play on their own and kill everyone else, others prefer to hunt in packs and some do a bit of both. Some people are helpful and others like to be obstructive. All these variants will make this game great.
A GM once told me that he knows when the game is balanced when he gets as many complaints about each of the races being overpowered and needing to be nerfed. Wise words! Same needs to go for both cash and free players IMO.
