1.) Perfect world, the PWE child is the worst game. Around since almost late 90′s, it was never updated as it spread through Malaysia (I was a shareholder inthe best guild there, only english version at the time). They found some people like government paid farmer Canadians that have spare $5,000 to plug into the game each month to support their habit. That was the only way to sustain top level gear repairs, dominate the economy, and hold all the territory…and run the dungeons to dominate said economy. This NON UPDATED game moved to PWI (international), but was just a movement to get American dollars. As all the servers are in US, and just mildly translated for a FEW languages (hardly international). It received it’s first update and destroyed the game for hardcore Canadian farmers. The update leveld up faster so you have to get into cash shop faster instead of grind your way as F2P (but the grind exists, just less months now). Think about it, several years just for greedy update. That is PWE.

2.) It’s other titles follow the same model. Jade Dynasty one the worst excuses for a game. COPY AND PASTE mobs, that make zero sense. With a useless menu feautre to make you feel usefull. Sorry but extra windows to describe you skills is not a new game, it is just broken material, followed by zero updates and all cash shop – LOSS.
3.) By far the worst title, FORSAKEN WORLD. WOW WOW WOW, the entire game mechanics are designed to hurt the player. First, you are forced to do everything on a schedual. (Unless you pay), you must do dailies or suffer, you get about 10 dailies a day, sometimes they randomly toss in a quest, about 8 quests in to your daily 10, to get an item through the TRADE market… you can’t trade unless you pay (coins in trade are cash in real life). So you are F’d. And have to wait a day to see if that quest wont randomly spawn. To get in game cash they make you join schedualed events… like ut out fires on a boat (all events are gay). The worst is capture the golden fish in the fishing game… once you have it, it boosts your cash coin to like 10, to exploit this, once you catch one… CHANGE SERVER CHANNELS to get another! This exploit turns out to be apart of the game…Soon, the entire game experience is not the LORE, the Gameplay, the dungeons, it is PURELY “How to beat the cashshop”. Kills the fun.

PWE due love to do some crazy shit cash shop; but sometimes it's not mandatory but optional. Look at Rusty hearts by PWE, most of things they sell in cash shops are cloths and exp buff; but you get exp buff as a reward in-game by story, game even or give away. The game ether saga is the same; they sell cloths, exp and other kind of buffs, potions, and ride; but you can get them by playing the game, participating in an event or give away.
