In your second pass, no horseman is complete without there trusty Dreadstead, unlock its mount armor and trample your foes in combat. In your first pass we have the Headless horseman set climb the tiers to unlock all the pieces, choose between the jacko lantern head and the spectral ghost hood, as you quest to unlock all the forbidden weapons the Death scythe, jacko shield, squash hammer, etc. Let me paint you a picture for the Arche Pass in a Halloween theme even though all Arche Pass seasons shouldnt just be holiday seasons. So, the Arche Pass comes out, and there is not a single picture of characters together sporting the in-game goods in the pass? Must not be a good buy right? The items in the Arche Pass are just thrown together. Lack of theme (This could only be a problem because its a test server) Selling fusion alembic and having it in Arche Pass tiers to space out rewards should be more of a priority. Most people that play retail farm mounts and transmog runs every week. People dont call GW2 fashion wars 2 for nothing, World of Warcraft didnt create trial of style for nothing. Mixing and matching pieces is the key to cosmetics. This also creates a more rewarding feeling to players that want the full set by grinding out the full Arche pass. Now that person that didnt like the full pink maids outfit might want the gloves or the boots, and now they are buying the Arche pass cause those gloves will not be coming out again. Different tiers in the Arche Pass should contain different image items, and when you complete the pass you finally have the full set. The answer is already baked into the ArcheAge system and the answer is called Item Fusion. Now lets talk about how we can turn this player that doesnt like the pink maid outfit into a conversion. Then as a company you can expect for a player to buy 2 or 3 costumes per alt. In games closer to World of Warcraft, ESO, and GW2 where people are getting multiple alts to end game content full body costumes work fine. Now Im opting out of buying the arche pass. For this scenario, now that I have seen the pink maid outfit and dont like it. The Arche Pass is using cosmetics as its selling point. In a game like ArcheAge where you mainly keep one character a person is only going to buy 2 or 3 costumes for their character. Next lets talk about the drawbacks of selling full body costumes. The exclusiveness lets a player know its worth grinding for because it wont appear in the shop later. So, the first problem we are looking at is that the Arche Pass should only contain new exclusive cosmetics. So, when I first got the premium Arche pass on the PTS I see this pink maids outfit in the first tier and mind goes I have seen that before. Lack of Theme (This could only be a problem because its a test server) Major points that stop the generation of money But we are here to discuss the mains reason why I personal dont think the pass will generate the money that the company is looking for and how we can fix that with tools that are and are not already in place in the ArcheAge system. While in fortnight you spawn, complete the task, then kill yourself and no longer focus on winning the match. Unlike games like Fortnight, I think this business model fits a mmorpg because you still play the game the same way while completing the pass. First, I would like thank Gamigo for bring the business model of Arche Pass to this game.
